Work With Us Virtually

Build your retirement plan with us from home.

We work with clients in 30 states across the country. However you work best, in person, part-time virtual, or fully remote, location isn’t what determines fit.

Zoom

Meetings with your advisor happen on Zoom.

DocuSign

Documents and statements are exchanged and signed through DocuSign.

How each step works virtually.

The intro call is by phone. Meetings after that happen on Zoom.

1

The intro call

We’ll walk you through how we work, answer your questions, and figure out together whether we’re a good fit.

2

Matched with an advisor

If we’re a good fit, we’ll match you with one of our advisors based on your location or the specific expertise your situation calls for.

3

Getting to know you

Your advisor meets with you to understand who you are: your family, your goals, what keeps you up at night, and what you’re most excited about for the future.

4

A full analysis

We lay out your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, so you can see where you stand financially.

5

A recommendation meeting

We bring it together with a clear path forward, built around your goals.

6

Ongoing from there

We keep reviewing everything, adjusting as life changes, and making sure the plan keeps working for you, year after year.

Questions people ask before meeting with us on Zoom.

Am I a good fit for Bernicke Wealth Management?

We work best with people over 50 who are within five years of retirement or already retired, with $500,000 or more in investable assets, along with business owners. Many of our clients come to us after working with a previous advisor or managing things on their own. If any of that sounds like you, the best way to find out if we're the right fit is a quick call.

Do you work with clients outside Wisconsin and Minnesota?

Yes. We're currently working with clients in 30 states across the country. Some clients work with us fully virtually and have never been to one of our offices. Others split their time between meeting in person and virtually, including a number of clients who spend winters in a warmer state.

Is virtual planning any different from meeting in person?

No. You work with the same team and receive the same services, coordinated into one retirement plan. The difference is where the meetings happen: on Zoom instead of in an office.

How are my accounts opened if I'm not near an office?

Your accounts are held at Charles Schwab, and the paperwork to open them is signed through DocuSign, so there's no need to visit an office.

How much information do you need to start my plan?

As we build your plan together, we'll ask for more specific information relevant to your situation, like account statements, but you don't need any of that gathered before you reach out.
