Hello, my name is Ryan Richards, and thank you for your interest in Huffman-Mayer-Paolo Wealth Management Group of Wells Fargo Advisors. Often when people meet with us for the first time, the question they ask is, "What makes our team different?"

Your family and your finances are extremely important to you. Otherwise, you wouldn't be watching this video. We've structured our team in a manner we think respects how important these things are to you. Our experience has shown that the many ways to invest your money can often exceed the expertise of one financial advisor. That's why we embrace the value of a team approach to address every client's unique challenges and opportunities.

We believe our differentiators are our people, our process, and our practice. We believe those strategic advantages allow us to deliver better results for our clients versus working with a single financial advisor. We believe our first and most important differentiator is our people. What we do for our clients goes way beyond what you might call a job. For everyone on our team, this is a calling. We believe we're a highly credentialed team of professionals whose purpose is to help clients achieve their financial and family goals.

Our clients know that we have a vested interest in their success, and we feel they respect and appreciate our effort and involvement in their financial and personal lives. We form long-term multi-generational relationships built on decades of trust. We believe our process is also a strategic differentiator. We put every piece of your financial life together and we collaborate with all of your service providers, such as your accountant and attorney, so we can bring clarity and cohesiveness to your financial life. You will always have the complete picture when working with us, as opposed to just one element of the plan, such as a specific investment or service.

We believe this holistic approach is a major advantage to you, the client. We believe our overall practice is also an advantage for our clients. We believe that local matters and we're passionately involved in our community. Our clients are our friends and neighbors, not just transactional relationships.

The goal of our practice is to deliver the very best to our friends and neighbors. We believe investing in the growth of our team is important and we take pride in working toward delivering consistent best practices to each and every client. We invest in technology, communication, and research, and anything else we think helps our practice stand out from the crowd.

So where do you go from here? If you want to get to know us better, contact our office to get our introductory kit and to schedule an initial consultation. There is no expectation that the relationship needs to go any further. Worst case, we will just have a good conversation and get to know one another.

We are excited to get to know you, your family, and your financial situation better. Thank you again for your interest in working with Huffman-Mayer-Paolo Wealth Management Group.
