Our Mission
— Jeff Snider, CEO
Now together, Amanda, Aaron and I are doing what we love in the place we love. Finances and Flint are in this family’s blood.
We are all very much purpose-driven people. Our financial planning philosophy has never been transactional – our objective is to always develop long-term relationships with members of this community built upon mutual trust and respect. And I firmly believe our business has grown into what it is today because of our values, work ethic, trustworthiness and our unwavering commitment to providing outstanding guidance and service to each and every person or business we partner with. We view ourselves as far more than financial planners; we strive to be educators who empower clients through our financial knowledge.
When you work with Snider Financial, you can count on receiving 110% effort and consistent communication. Our aim is to help clients properly plan for the future and protect their investments and assets so that they can be free from financial stress – and have the time and energy to pursue their own dreams.
It’s our team’s empathy and loyalty to those who entrust us with their business. It’s our drive to help people, to truly serve them. It’s our personal commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of our clients as well as our community.
We are a multi-generational family financial firm. When I founded Snider Financial in 1992, I had no idea both of my children would end up joining the family business. Back then, I was a humble entrepreneur with a dream. As the firm grew, the kids would join me at national financial conferences where they’d learn that their dad – just a regular guy from a small city in Michigan – had actually developed a nationally ranked practice.
But it’s not just our financial industry expertise that sets us apart – or what I’m most proud of.
