Our Services

Financial Planning

The first thing we do is get to know you – your values, your goals, and your personality. It is not until we fully know you as an individual or family that we can begin to build out your financial plan to serve as a roadmap for your future, because you can’t take your next step until you know where you are going.

The “Next-Step” Advantage

Married couple, Lance & Tessa Elrod, created Next Step Financial Transitions to help individuals and families navigate all of life’s transitions. From the overlooked and underserved next generation of investors to those looking to retire, we offer personalized financial advice for every step of your journey.

Fee Only

Most importantly, we offer flat subscription model financial planning services with no account minimums, so you don’t need a sizeable portfolio to qualify. We pride ourselves in a No-Sales approach towards financial and investment planning and won’t steer you towards unnecessary or unproductive financial products. As Certified Financial Planners™, your best interests would be the key to our professional relationship.

A Customer-First Approach

We started this business to help people with their finances, and even though we deal in numbers, we don’t see our customers through a purely financial lens. We help people and families based on what they have and how they can maximize their potential for themselves and their next generation.

No Pre-Packaged Solutions

We offer advice and curate solutions based on our clients’ needs and situations. This approach requires us to communicate with our clients at length to come up with the most optimal financial solutions. Most of our clients aren’t even aware of how much they can financially grow, even with limited earning and savings. We educate them in finances and investments and work with them on solutions that allow them to control their finances instead of letting their finances control them.

Who We Serve

As the name of the company suggests, we are ideally suited for people who are going through or preparing for a transition in their lives. Those can include:

Newlyweds or soon to be
First-time home buyers or those starting their family
Career changers
Big promotion with complicated compensation package
Parents planning for their empty-nest
Retirement
Widow/Widower
Divorce and post-divorce
Families with children that have intellectual and developmental disabilities

But our list of ideal clients isn’t that limited. If you need help with your finances or planning a secure financial future, and you want someone who is more interested in YOU and YOUR NEEDS instead of just the numbers associated with your financial standing, then you are our ideal client.
