Your monthly dividend
Every new month brings a new opportunity to connect with clients on key actions items around financial planning. Incorporating small actions each month can help you scale to the next level — improving client services and building a future-ready firm.
September 2026 tip — Elevate client strategy for year-end. Use September as a launch point for proactive strategy discussions with clients. Conduct short planning calls to review year-to-date income, major life or business changes and expectations for the rest of the year. Begin modeling multi-year projections under current law to identify opportunities for income timing, deductions, retirement contributions and charitable planning as clients approach year-end.
