Here is a template and some model text for a flat fee advisor website.

Please note:

  • This is just a model. The text in parenthesis, and other places where required, will need to be customized by you.
  • You should get this run by compliance before publishing any of this text.
  • I’m not responsible for anything that results from this. I’m providing guidance on what to say but you are the one who has to take the ball and run with it, and you will be ultimately responsible for your own website.
  • I’m provided a sense of the main ideas you want to convey. If this phrasing is not amenable to you, please alter it to suit your style.
  • I’m presenting text for the home, about, and fees page because those are the pages on a website that get the most traffic generally.
  • I didn’t include disclosures as those vary firm by firm. You should ask compliance for them.

Before we get into it, I’m assuming you’re visiting this page because you are a flat fee financial advisor.

I have a gazillion free resources that can help you!.
