Our Process
The Sequoia Grove Experience
From Initial Conversation to Ongoing Partnership
Our process is designed to move clients from introduction to implementation within roughly 60 days.
1. Introductory Call
A complimentary conversation to learn more about your goals, current concerns, and whether we are the right fit to work together. This is an opportunity to ask questions and begin discussing the areas where guidance may be helpful.
2. Onboarding
Once we decide to move forward together, we will complete the onboarding process, including client paperwork, account setup, and a personalized risk assessment.
3. Discovery & Information Gathering
We take a deeper look at your financial picture, including assets, income, investments, cash flow, and long-term goals. You’ll receive guidance on the documents and information needed to begin building your plan.
4. Current Financial Analysis
4. Current Financial Analysis - Before making recommendations, we evaluate your current financial structure, investment strategy, cash flow, and existing planning approach to identify opportunities, risks, and areas for improvement.
5. Strategy & Planning
We develop personalized financial strategies tailored to your unique circumstances and priorities. Depending on your needs, this may include retirement planning, investment strategy, divorce or widowhood planning, tax considerations, and cash flow analysis.
6. Plan Presentation
We walk through your financial plan together, discussing recommendations, priorities, and next steps. Our goal is to provide clarity, answer questions thoughtfully, and help you feel confident moving forward.
7. Implementation
Once decisions are made, we help implement the agreed-upon strategies — including account setup or transfers, investment management, income planning, and coordination with other professionals when appropriate.
8. Ongoing Guidance & Partnership
Financial planning is an ongoing process that evolves alongside your life. Through regular reviews and continued collaboration, we help you adapt your strategy as your goals, circumstances, and priorities change over time
