If, after reading through the short description of who I typically serve and how I work, you find that we may work well together, feel free to contact me via phone or email for a complimentary, no-obligation initial consultation.

I have been fortunate to work with an outstanding group of committed clients for many years.  While each client holds their own values and visions unique to them, a few commonalities may help you determine if you would also benefit from my services.

- Most clients are either retired or within 10 years of retirement.

- My clients place a high value on financial planning and less emphasis on taking high risks trying to generate maximum return.

- My clients are long-term investors, comfortable with a custom asset management plan based on their risk tolerance, time horizon, goals, and income needs - not day-trading. 
 
- Most clients believe that their wealth is very important to them but no more important than family, faith, health, and community.

I am a Fee-Only financial advisor who takes great pride in acting on behalf of my clients. This means I have a responsibility to put my clients' interests well before my own in all recommendations.

At the core of our relationship is a custom financial plan geared toward life events such as retirement, wealth transfer, business succession, and asset protection.

Communication is key.  In addition to regular phone calls and emails, we will establish regular face-to-face meetings, typically 2-4 times per year.  Regular contact ensures a much higher probability of finding true meaning and success in your wealth.

If you have found you’d like to have a conversation about working together, I’d be happy to dedicate an hour to getting to know you better, discussing your intentions, and determining if I can provide value to you and your situation. 

To set up an initial meeting, contact me at pshope@shopeandassociates.com or by phone at (734) 479-1400.

So you want 3-5 warm leads every week from LinkedIn?

And you’ve probably heard the “gurus” preach this:

→ Post content every single day for 6 months.
→ Spend hours liking, commenting, and “engaging.”
→ Avoid cold outreach because it’s “spammy.”

Let’s be honest:

You’ll waste months. You’ll burn out. And you’ll see $0.

The truth?

LinkedIn is a goldmine for leads if you stop guessing and start implementing a proven system.

A system that:

- Connects you with real buyers, not browsers.
- Delivers 3-5 warm leads every week using 100% organic strategies.
- Saves you 50+ hours a month by handling your entire LinkedIn presence.

This is what I do for founders, coaches, and consultants who are tired of chasing leads.

If you’re ready for:

- Consistent, high-quality leads
- Zero spam or wasted time
- A system that works while you focus on your business

Let’s build your LinkedIn into a lead machine that actually delivers.

Your next $10K client is 1 chat away.

DM me "LFG" and I'll show you how to get 3-5 warm leads every week from LinkedIn.

3 harsh LinkedIn truths:

(that "gurus" won't share in public)

Wish I knew this sooner:

1. Posting + commenting daily ≠ clients
2. Generic outreach = killed reputation
3. Guessing strategies = wasted time

What works instead:

Step 1. Content that builds trust
Step 2. Conversations that convert $$$ 
Step 3. Conversion system that brings leads 24/7

This 3-step "Proven Lead Generation System" is trusted by 550+ experts who are closing millions in deals every week.
