How Much Will A Financial Planner Cost? Dennis Explains How Fees May Be Structured.

Welcome to The Century Plan podcast. Dennis Hall and Sarah Steele from Yellowtail Financial Planning Limited bring us  The Century Plan podcast, to educate and highlight ways to build a brighter retirement.

Following on from the previous episode, Where Do I Start? Dennis and Sarah discuss different costs, how they are structured, and what you can expect.

Why are there so many different fee structures?

Is there an annual fee?

How much is financial advice?

In this episode, we hear why Dennis decided to step away from the pricing structure used with previous organisations and change his approach to transparent, fixed fee pricing for Yellowtail.

We also hear the hurdles and objections this brought and how he wanted clients to understand exactly what they were paying for.
