Top financial advisors working with founders and business owners in Orem, UT

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 recently started or acquired a business, or are planning to grow your company, you need an advisor who understands the unique financial challenges founders face. Without this focus, it's easy to overlook how your business decisions impact your personal finances and long-term goals.

  • Business cash flow insight. Look for advisors who analyze your company's income and expenses to align your personal financial plan with business realities.
  • Exit strategy planning. Confirm how they help you prepare for selling or transitioning your business, not just day-to-day operations.
  • Tax implications. Ask how they navigate the complex tax rules that affect business owners, including deductions and retirement contributions.
  • Growth and risk balance. Ensure they consider how your business growth plans affect your risk tolerance and investment choices.

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

Facet

I love all the cool and creative things that people are doing on the internet. One of my favorite things to do is spend time with my kids seeing what interesting and unique things people are doing online as influencers and content creators. As a Financial Advisor by training I knew that the career path of an online influencer or content creator was not like the traditional career path. After 9 years working and studying all things Financial Planning I decided to break out of the world of large investment houses and become a fully independent Personal Financial Advisor. I knew I could help online influencers and content creators with their unique challenges and situations. I knew I could help them live their life how they want and aligning their money with their dreams. Utilizing an academic and evidence based approach to investing and money management I am able to help ensure a prosperous and fulfilling life for all those that I work with. I’d love to get to know you and where you want to go in life. Don’t hesitate to schedule a free consultation where we can get acquainted and discover what we can do together!
