A complete list of active advisors currently associated with Sound Advisory Services Inc.

Warmer can help you find a great advisor at Sound Advisory Services Inc. or one who fits your needs even better.

Sound Advisory Services Inc. primarily serves individual clients (roughly 160) and provides advisory services by referring and liaising with a third‑party money manager, Gradient Investments, LLC, which offers actively managed mutual fund and stock portfolios. The firm assists clients with account paperwork, delivers third‑party Form ADV disclosures, reviews quarterly statements, and also holds free, educational seminars and workshops for the public that do not provide individualized investment or tax advice. SIS does not directly manage client assets or exercise discretionary trading authority; instead it documents client goals and risk tolerance, helps match clients to the third‑party manager’s strategies, and performs ongoing reviews to identify opportunities for rebalancing or tax‑loss harvesting and to update the manager on client status. Investment selection and fee billing for managed accounts are handled under separate contracts with the third‑party manager, and account minimums and custodial arrangements are set by that manager and its custodians. Compared with many single‑advisor independent firms, SIS is notable for not offering in‑house portfolio management or charging percentage‑of‑AUM fees itself—its revenue model centers on referral/liaison work and an incentive‑sharing arrangement with the third‑party manager. The firm’s principal also maintains a separate insurance practice that consumes a majority of his time and may lead to occasional insurance product recommendations, a relationship the brochure discloses as a potential conflict of interest.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
