Start With a Discovery Call

If your family is doing well financially and wants help coordinating your financial plan and investments, schedule a discovery call to see if Motif Planning is the right fit.

The call is 15 minutes over Zoom. No prep required.

We’ll talk about your family, income, career, taxes, investments, benefits, and what made you reach out.

Step 1: Check the fit

Motif Planning is usually the best fit for dual income families in their 30s and 40s who:

  1. Earn $350k+ as a household
  2. Have accumulated meaningful savings and investments
  3. Have kids or plan to
  4. Want ongoing financial planning and investment management
  5. Have decisions involving taxes, equity comp, benefits, insurance, college, estate planning, or other family goals

Ongoing financial planning and investment management is $10,000 per year. The fee is flat and does not increase based on the amount of investments we manage.

If that sounds close, schedule a call.

Step 2: Schedule your discovery call

During the call, we’ll talk through:

  • What prompted you to reach out
  • What you’re already doing well
  • What financial decisions are coming up
  • What you would like to delegate
  • What you want life to look like over the next few years
  • How Motif Planning works

Step 3: Review the details

Before or after the call, you can review:

  • How the Motif process works
  • Pricing
  • Investment philosophy
  • FAQ

Everyone learns differently, so I’ve included a few options:

These resources will answer common questions like:

  • What does financial planning actually include?
  • How does investment management work?
  • What are your qualifications?
  • How are you compensated?
  • How often will we meet?

Step 4: Decide

If it feels like a fit, we’ll send the agreement and schedule your onboarding.

If it does not, I’ll point you in a better direction when I can.
