Financial Planning was once seen as only for the Affluent, but now it’s for All of Us -

Financial Planning was once seen as a luxury for the affluent, but now it's more important than ever for everyone to have a financial plan. With the rising cost of living and the increasing complexity of the financial world, it's more challenging than ever to manage your money and achieve your financial goals on your own.

Let us help make the complex of your finances, clear -

Learn Your Money.

Then Leverage It.

At The Brands and Bands Strategy Group, we recognize the three layers of the "500" that often create barriers for individuals seeking financial guidance. Traditional financial planners may require you to have $500K in assets to get started, while social media often suggests investing $500 monthly—an amount many might not have readily available. At The Brands and Bands Strategy Group, we take a different approach. We work with those who are building their savings to handle a $500 emergency, making financial planning accessible and practical for everyone.

We provide a personalized and proactive financial planning experience that adapts to your changing life. No two lives are the same - no two financial plans are the same. Unlike static plans, ours evolve with you, ensuring your finances always remain on track. Our services include budget and cash flow planning, which are the foundational blocks to financial planning—no matter the income. Let us help you build a solid financial foundation for a secure future.

Financial Planning is something that everyone deserves -

  • If you just got that new job or promotion and want to pivot on the right track.

  • Look at your budget and feel that the math isn’t mathing enough for you to live comfortably.

  • Want to start saving more, but don’t know where to start?

  • Know you need to save for retirement, but outside of your employer 401K - feel lost.

  • See social media and headlines telling you one thing, but can’t make a realistic action plan.

The list goes on —

At The Brands and Bands Strategy Group, we believe the key to achieving financial well-being lies not in chasing external trends, but in understanding your money from the ground up. When you hear the term “financial planning” or financial planner - most instantly think it’s for the affluent, but at B+B - we work with those who need to plan and manage money no matter the tax bracket.

  • We are an advise-only financial planning and education firm that listens to you, educates you, and cuts out the middleman action. No judgment, just partnering with you on your wealth journey (no matter what that looks like).

  • Along with working with our clients and community - we also pair with financial institutions and civic groups to curate the brand messaging with their audience/community. Giving a different tonality to how money is learned and leveraged could close not only the wealth gap but also the knowledge gap when it comes to personal finance and wealth management.

We offer a boutique experience that goes beyond basic financial planning and education. Delving into your behavioral mechanics, helps you understand why you are the way you are with money. This self-awareness empowers you to make informed financial decisions aligning with your values and goals.


We'll help you:

  • Gain clarity on your financial situation: Understand your income, expenses, and net worth.

  • Build a budget that works for you: Learn to manage your money effectively and avoid financial pitfalls.

  • Develop a personalized wealth roadmap: Define what financial success looks like to you and develop a plan to achieve it.

  • Uncover your financial triggers and biases: Understand how your emotions and experiences influence your financial decisions.

  • Build healthy financial habits: Develop sustainable strategies for saving, investing, and managing debt; Building your version of the “Dream”.

Redefine the perception of money, not only impact the actions of money but also how that accountability shows up in bank accounts.
