Analyze the Data- Identify the strengths and the weaknesses in the client’s present financial condition as they affect the ability to achieve the client’s goals. Revise goals if necessary.

Develop a Plan- Design a set of recommended strategies tailored to the clients circumstances and goals, including alternative ways of achieving - those goals. Draw on other experts as needed. Obtain client approval.
