How to Select A 401k Plan
Demand Quality
As a 3(38) fiduciary, investment selection has a single criterion: Quality.
Expenses evaporate when anti-consumer relationships are exterminated.
Local, established professionals bring a level of effectiveness, personal service, and commitment difficult to replicate with a call center.

Focus on Favorable Outcomes
Typically, 401k providers focus on options like a grocery store. If I just stock the shelves with a great selection at a low cost, I did my job, right? Absolutely not. Unlike a store, a business owner is a legal fiduciary.
We monitor plans for inadequate savings rates, irrational investment decisions, and danger signs that indicate an employee is off-track.
Our experienced advisors and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professionals provide face to face coaching to each employee. We challenge, encourage, and make it clear to each employee what they need to do today to achieve their financial goals.
Speaking of Transparancy...
Most 401k plans we review obfuscate costs. Not at Everspire401k.
