In this episode, Steve Atkinson talks with Ron Bernstein, Co-Founder and Managing Member of Prism Planning Partners. Ron became a financial advisor in 2005 after working for years as a Certified Public Accountant and CFO of a publicly-traded medical supply company. After over a decade of experience, he founded Prism Planning Partners in 2018. Alongside his co-founders, they set out to establish a different kind of financial planning experience that embraced the multi-faceted emotional, human elements of life planning and sophisticated, analytical financial planning.
“The relationship-building component and earning somebody’s trust are paramount to longevity in the advisory business.” – Ron Bernstein
Ron talks with Steve about how he and his team have built a firm serving 75 households and 130 million assets after just five years. He also speaks about how he blends traditional planning with life planning and strategies they use to focus on the bigger priorities for their business and clients.
