Schmidt Financial Management, WealthManagement.com 2024 Industry Award Finalist for Client Initiative Category

KIRKLAND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 19, 2024--

Schmidt Financial Management, Inc. was honored to be a finalist in the WealthManagement.com 2024 Industry Award (the “Wealthies”) for the 'Client Initiative' category based on its innovative Tax Dashboard. This underscores Schmidt Financial Management’s commitment to be the place where executives and technology professionals go for financial advice.

Schmidt submitted an innovative service offering for their clients and clients' CPAs: the Tax Dashboard. The Tax Dashboard streamlines communications and tax task management for clients, their CPAs, and advisors. The Dashboard has the ability to reduce time and effort for all involved while keeping tax information current. The impact of the Dashboard is that it may relieve some stress that clients feel around taxes.

The Tax Dashboard takes service to the next level for Schmidt's clients. Before CPAs reach out to gather necessary tax documents or send out tax binders, Schmidt sends a highly personalized tax communication to clients. Leveraging state-of-the-art technology, Schmidt has built a custom portal to securely share tax reports and account information needed for tax projections. This communication includes everything clients need to know, from what accounts or investments may receive a tax report to what activities took place in those accounts that may be relevant to the client's tax filing. The Tax Dashboard creates opportunities for Schmidt to have meaningful conversations with clients about the purpose of longer-term financial planning for the tax management of all accounts and investments, giving an elevated client experience.

Evan Schmidt, Principal and Financial Advisor at Schmidt Financial Management, Inc., said: “From the beginning, Schmidt was built to serve executives and technology professionals. We thrive on finding innovative ways to meet our client’s needs. The Tax Dashboard supports the client's total financial picture and provides clarity for the clients and their CPAs. Being named a Wealthie finalist is an honor and something we are proud of.”
