Dan Brooks introduces the E.A.S.E planning process, designed to help clients achieve their retirement goals and make informed decisions. The process consists of four steps: Educate, Analyze, Strategize, and Enjoy.
Dan shared: “I wanted to learn what each of them are doing and the different sides of the business. There’s the investment side, there’s the insurance side, there’s the planning side. I wanted to dive into that. I did all of the training that I could do. I’ve completed the certified financial planning coursework and hundreds of hours of other training to really kind of peel back the curtain of what was going on in the industry. I put this E.A.S.E planning process together and it came about from our clients who were telling us at the end of the process that we’re using, which we didn’t have a name for.”
Dan also added: “We have developed a proprietary process to reduce the complicated financial world to its five key areas, so people can easily grasp how their plan works and relax about their money.”
