Who Should Attend?

THE SUMMIT 2026 is built for advisors who want to rise above the competition and deliver massive value without burning out. Whether you’re...

Tired of long, complicated financial plans that overwhelm instead of inspire - Most advisors confuse volume with value. Your clients don’t need a 50-page binder of jargon; they need clarity and direction.


Ready to deliver real tax value without becoming a CPA - You know tax is where the biggest opportunities lie, but you don’t want to drown in forms or regulations.


Bringing on new clients, expanding your team, or rethinking your model – THE SUMMIT 2026 gives you the systems to scale with confidence and build a firm that grows stronger year after year.


...this event equips you with the tax strategies, one-page planning process, and implementation frameworks to thrive.
THE SUMMIT 2026 starts September 27th, 2026.

Why You Need To Be In The Room

Most advisors confuse value with volume - long reports, complex charts, endless jargon.

One-Page Financial Plans change the game. They condense a client’s financial situation and goals into a single, actionable page that’s simple, clear, and client-centered. Financial plans without tax are incomplete. Tax planning isn’t an add-on; it’s the core of delivering real, tangible value clients can feel today - not someday.

At THE SUMMIT 2026, you won’t just sit through presentations - you’ll compete, collaborate, and sharpen your skills alongside advisors facing the same challenges you do. 

You’ll leave with systems you can apply the very next day: simplify financial planning, amplify results and confidently integrate tax planning into every financial plan.
An execution plan...not just ideas, but a step-by-step strategy to implement.
A stronger business model...clearer processes, more profitability, less stress.
A network of elite advisors...people who challenge, support, and push you to grow.
THE SUMMIT STARTS IN...
