Transitioning to Fee-Only

The decision to become a Fee-Only financial planner is one of the most important — and best — decisions you can make as a professional looking to work in the best interests of your clients. But once that decision is made, t在这里 are other associated decisions for the transitioning Fee-Only financial planner to make:

  • What compensation model should I use as a Fee-Only financial planner?
  • Should I partner with someone for my back end solutions?
  • What information do I need to know when starting a practice?

Luckily for you, NAPFA is dedicated to assisting new Fee-Only financial planners with resources designed to help them make informed decisions about making the switch to Fee-Only financial planning. Below are some resources to get you started, and we welcome you to reach out to us at membership@honornm.com with any additional questions.
