The Ward Powell Group - Ward Powell - Lost and Found: WHERE are you losing money in your business?

Our goal is to help our clients become more efficient in all the areas of wealth transfers by helping them identify, minimize, and/or eliminate the financial losses they are experiencing, unknowingly and unnecessarily. We do this with a certain philosophy in mind. We do not look for the best return on investment. Rather, we ask, where are you losing money?

As the founder of The Ward Powell Group Inc. I have consistently looked for meaningful ways to separate ourselves from the average financial advisor. Over the years we’ve developed a very unique approach in the marketplace. We opened our doors twelve years ago.

Speakers will stay after the close of presentations should participants have individual questions.

***Light refreshments will be served.***
