CFP®-certified advisors focused on retirement plans for business owners (sep, solo 401k) in Colorado

The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.

If you run a business and want to set up a retirement plan like a SEP or solo 401(k), you need an advisor who understands the unique tax and contribution rules that apply. Without this expertise, you might miss out on maximizing your retirement savings or face unexpected tax penalties. CFP® certification means these advisors have formal training in financial planning, including retirement strategies.

  • Plan type guidance. Confirm how they help you choose between SEP and solo 401(k) based on your business size, income, and goals.
  • Contribution limits. Ask how they ensure you stay within IRS limits while optimizing your tax benefits.
  • Integration with business finances. See if they consider your cash flow and payroll timing when recommending plan contributions.
  • Compliance support. Check how they assist with required filings and deadlines to avoid costly mistakes.

Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.
