Questions? Let’s Clear the Air.
I feel embarrassed about my financial situation. Should I clean it up before I call?
Absolutely not. You wouldn’t fix your teeth before going to the dentist, and you don’t need to fix your finances before coming to us. We offer a 100% judgment-free zone. Whether you are behind on savings or just disorganized, our job isn't to judge where you are; it's to help you get where you need to be.
Do I need to be wealthy to work with a financial planner?
Many people think financial planning is only for the ultra-rich, but that’s a misconception. In fact, having a plan is how you build wealth. If you are serious about stewarding your resources and planning for the future, you are the right fit for Wellspring.
Why should I hire a planner instead of doing it myself?
You are an expert in your field, but managing wealth is a full-time job. Between tax laws, market changes, and estate rules, "DIY" planning can lead to costly mistakes. We save you time and energy by handling the complexities for you, so you can focus on your family and your business.
The Difference is in the Details.
Wellspring Financial
-
We are paid only by you. We sell advice, not products.
-
Legally and ethically required to act in your best interest, always.
-
You work directly with Tyler, who lives in and understands Alma.
-
A tailored blueprint built for your specific goals and timeline.
The Other Guys (Big Banks & Brokers)
-
Often paid by selling you products, creating a potential conflict of interest.
-
Only required to sell products that are "suitable" (even if they are more expensive).
-
You are often just an account number in a massive database.
-
Generic templates used for thousands of clients.
The cost of going it alone.
Did you know?
According to industry research, the average investor often underperforms the market simply because of emotional decision-making—buying when high and selling when scared.
Potential Value
Vanguard research suggests that working with a professional advisor can add about 3% in net returns to your portfolio over time through behavioral coaching, rebalancing, and tax strategies.
Peace of Mind
55% of Americans are concerned that they can’t achieve financial security in retirement. You don't have to be one of them.
Higher Standards
A Fiduciary Standard (which we follow) is the highest legal standard in the industry, yet many "financial advisors" at big firms are not required to put your interests first.
Smart financial planning isn't an expense—it’s an investment that pays for itself in peace of mind and long-term focus.
Is Wellspring Financial Right For You?
We are the perfect fit if:
You value stewardship
You view money not as the ultimate goal, but as a tool to support your family, your faith, and your community.
You want a partner, not a product
You are looking for a long-term relationship with a guide, not a salesperson pitching the "hot stock of the week."
You are ready to delegate
You realize that your time is better spent with your family or on your farm than trying to decipher the tax code.
We might not be the right fit if:
You are looking for a quick scheme
You are looking for a "get rich quick" scheme or high-risk speculation.
You try to “win” at the stocks market
You want to beat the market every single day rather than following a disciplined, long-term plan.
You want one-off advice
You prefer a transactional relationship over a personal one built on faithful stewardship.
Time is your most valuable financial asset.
Waiting to build a plan doesn't just delay your retirement—it limits what your wealth could have become. Don't look back in ten years wishing you had started today.
Plant the seeds now for a future where you are financially free. It’s simpler than you think to:
✓ Clarify exactly what you need to do to reach your goals.
✓ Optimize your current wealth to work harder for you.
✓ Relax knowing you are on the path to a bountiful harvest
