At Blueprint, we follow a structured and client-focused onboarding process designed to ensure every client is matched with the right advisor and receives tailored financial guidance. After the initial phone call or first interaction, our advisors and/or associates gain an understanding of the client’s needs and determine whether they are a good fit for our services. Associates then carefully match each client with the advisor best suited to support their goals and arrange an introductory meeting between both parties.
During this initial meeting, the advisor takes the time to understand the client’s current situation and discuss their short- and long-term financial goals. If the client is happy to proceed, a Fact-Find meeting is scheduled. Clients are asked to come prepared with details of their superannuation and overall financial position, allowing the advisor to gain a clear and complete picture of their circumstances.
Following the Fact-Find meeting, and with agreement from both the advisor and the client, an initial Statement of Advice is prepared. This comprehensive document outlines personalised recommendations supported by in-depth research and strategic considerations. The advisor presents these recommendations in a dedicated meeting, explaining how each step supports the client’s financial objectives.
If the client chooses to proceed, the advisor then introduces an Annual Advice Agreement. This formal agreement outlines the ongoing advice relationship and includes at least one review meeting within the 12-month period. Once these steps are completed, the client is officially welcomed as a Blueprint client, receiving tailored advice and ongoing support for the next 12 months.

Life one day will come to an end, every day you take a step forward and you can never go back. Every day that you fail to act has a cost for the rest of your life – there is an economic cost to inaction. Life rolls on and you can’t stop it. Retirement is a major watershed. Suddenly income stops and forever you are reliant on your savings or the government to live. So we need to plan far in advance for that.

In the usual course of events, you get married and buy a house, you have kids and your living costs gradually increase. Maximum costs occur when kids are teenagers when they consume like adults, education costs are highest and you want to participate in holidays and activities with them before they turn into adults.

Your income follows a different pattern. When you have kids you go from 2 incomes to 1, but then grows again as you gain experience in the workforce, but then at retirement it just stops….but your living costs continue.

Because living costs continue, you need a lump sum at retirement to pay for that. That’s what superannuation is for, but super is a restricted form of investment, so you also need to build other assets outside of super, perhaps property or a share portfolio.

Your overall protective umbrella are your wills, powers of attorney, trusts etc. Insurance is your other main protective device. Insurance is greatest when you start a family and reduces over time as your kids get closer to independence, your mortgage gets paid down and your assets go up. It ceases at retirement when you are finally fully financially self-sufficient.
