How Jon Jones Built RIA Brighton Jones To Run Without Him For A Year

How long could your business survive without you? For financial advisors, I think that's really two questions in one. Part one is a question of scale. Part two is a question of how you want to connect with your clients, build a sense of community, and run a modern advisory practice. Brighton Jones is one of the top fee-only wealth management companies in the country, and one of Washington's 100 Best Companies to Work For seven years in a row. Brighton Jones also placed on Barron's List of the Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors, and Forbes' List of the Top 50 Wealth Advisors. And they racked up these accolades, in part, while the CEO was on a year-long jaunt with his family that covered 35 countries. My guest today, Jon Jones, is the CEO of Brighton Jones. We talked about how he prepared his company to run without him for a year, why financial advisors should put more focus on revenue and less on AUM, and how his firm divides up responsibilities between business development and advising clients to achieve scale without sacrificing the Life-Centered Planning experience.
