Small Business
Advisory Practice



MAKING YOUR WHOLE LIFE PART OF THE PLAN

Our small business advisory services grew out of our personal financial advisory relationships with high-net-worth individuals who were also small business owners. We help clients think about their business as a component of their personal balance sheet, both from a risk and opportunity standpoint.

Because the financial needs and concerns of a small business or sole proprietorship are invariably intertwined with those of its owners and their families, Van Hulzen is the logical choice to provide guidance and perspective on both. Our experience with the common themes of succession, retirement, life insurance and other factors allow us to guide clients through key phases of business ownership. We align your goals and identify your risks, not just as a trusted advisor, but as a partner that understands the value of what you have built.


“If you’re a small business owner, there’s little separation between your work and your life. We look at the big picture, the overlaps, gaps, and synergies. We free you to focus on what matters most to you, such as achieving more work-life balance or philanthropic pursuits—knowing that both your family and employees are in trusted hands.”

JARROD JACOBI AWMA® | SENIOR FINANCIAL ADVISOR



As a small business owner, you wear multiple hats. Helping you balance your personal needs along with the needs of the business is our specialty. Helping preserve the legacy of what you’ve built, far into the future, is just what we do.
