What’s the difference between a flat fee, hourly planning, and AUM?

Each model fits a different type of client need:

  • Hourly is best for specific questions, second opinions, or targeted planning
  • Flat fee is ideal when you want a complete financial plan with defined deliverables
  • AUM works well when you want ongoing portfolio management and long-term planning support
