Our Approach

Chess Board, Strategic Approach
At Strategic Planning Group, we believe every financial journey deserves a clear and personalized plan. Founded by Ryan Craner, our firm was built with one simple concept in mind: to help clients create an all-inclusive written Strategic Plan™. Just as a blueprint guides the construction of a home, a Strategic Plan™ provides structure and direction for your financial life.

Why a Written Plan Matters

Many people receive financial recommendations without having a full plan in place. This can lead to fragmented strategies or sales-driven advice. Our approach is different. Your Strategic Plan™ is a written document that identifies your goals and outlines strategies in areas such as retirement planning, wealth management, financial security, tax reduction, and risk management.

By creating this financial roadmap first, we ensure your current assets and resources are properly positioned to support your life’s objectives. Having a comprehensive plan allows you and your advisor to make informed decisions rather than relying on one-size-fits-all solutions.
