Stephen formed Vantage Impact with Traci Beach and their brother-in-law, Boston Cardinal, because it felt like the right time — in the middle of a pandemic with a bunch of little kids running around ??
The business model they built is unique, but what they did was very simple: Stephen and Traci combined their Craft Impact: A Growth & Communications Agency business with Boston’s 10+ years of financial advisor recruiting experience, where he managed 1500+ financial advisor transitions. Vantage Impact exists to guide financial advisors through big changes for their practice. The business has two sides: transition and growth. Once Vantage Impact helps advisors find the right firm, talent or custodian, it leverages strategic marketing and change communications, so advisors can grow a practice that’s profitable, impactful and life giving.
Stephen’s favorite things are golf, cold brew, bourbon (in that order). He is a big fan of goofy t-shirts and craft brewery trucker hats. Cheers ? to 2 “Impact” businesses ? and 3 little kids…what a ride!
