The Turning Point

What started as a casual conversation with Mike from HFM turned up a completely different approach.

HFM didn’t start with “where’s your money invested?” He asked about Steven’s family, his parents, his goals.

He wanted to know where Steven wanted to be in life, not just where his portfolio stood.

For the business and employees

Based on his personal experience, Steven introduced the HFM team to the other executives in the company. The results: 10s of thousands in fee savings from year one, plus a completely different level of service.

After they took over the 401(k) program, HFM conducted individual meetings with every interested employee.

They personally set up portals and walked people through each step. Then come back twice a year for education sessions.

And they treated everyone the same, from front-line workers to senior management.

  • Employees gained real understanding of their retirement plans, not just papers to sign.
  • Many who initially only needed 401(k) help ended up asking HFM to manage their personal finances too.
In Steven’s words: “They give first. They don’t expect anything back. It just organically grows into something else. I’ve never seen anything like it.”
  • The company saved money.
  • And the team felt genuinely cared for rather than just enrolled in a benefit program.
