Our Approach

OUR APPROACH

Step 1: Listening to You
At Smart Steps, our first job is to get to know you. We want to know who you are, what you care about and what your life dreams are, big and small. Understanding where you are in your financial journey now and where you hope to be in the future is the beginning of the blueprint for reaching your financial goals.

Step 2: Explaining Your Options
Managing finances can be stressful, but it doesn't have to be. We take the time to explain various investment options and work with you to create a plan for your unique circumstances, empowering you with knowledge and strategies for your financial future.

Step 3: Serving You
Ultimately, you are the one who will decide how much to save, how much to invest and how much risk you are comfortable with. Our job is to help manage your financial plans, answer your questions and concerns, and provide guidance that is in your best interest. In other words, we are here to serve you.

Smart Steps Wealth Management, LLC is not an affiliate of Ramsey Solutions. Ramsey Solutions is not affiliated with any SmartVestor Pros and neither Ramsey Solutions nor any of its representatives are authorized to provide investment advice on behalf of a SmartVestor Pro or to act for or bind a SmartVestor Pro. Each SmartVestor Pro has entered into an agreement with Ramsey Solutions under which the Pro pays Ramsey Solutions a combination of fees. The fees paid by the Pros to Ramsey Solutions are paid irrespective of whether you become a client of a Pro and are not passed along to you. However, the presence of these arrangements may affect a SmartVestor Pro’s willingness to negotiate below their standard investment advisory fees, and therefore may affect the overall fees paid by clients introduced by Ramsey Solutions through the SmartVestor program.
