When Don W. Goelzer founded our firm five decades ago, his vision was to surround himself not just with qualified investment professionals, but with people who shared the same core values.
It is this philosophy—along with offering fee-based investment advice and the highest level of client service—that has helped us grow from a small company to the comprehensive wealth management firm we are today.
Our Core Purpose is to enrich the lives of our clients, colleagues, and community.
Difficult right over the easy wrong.
Thoughtful approach in all we do.
Striving for positive outcomes and an awesome client experience.
We focus on what matters to you.
Individual growth and team success.
Since our founding, we have assisted successful individuals, families, and institutions in meeting their unique financial and investment objectives. We provide investment advisory, consulting, and asset management services to more than 600 clients, with more than $3.5 billion in total assets under advisement across 40 states.
