Our Comprehensive Process

Building your legacy begins right here, with SageSpring’s distinct, holistic approach to financial advice. Our process begins with understanding you, your goals for the present, and your hopes for the future. Then, together, we carefully craft a plan that will guide you toward the life of wealth and financial independence that supports you and the ones you love.

Understand Our Process
Introduction

We want to use your time as wisely as possible, so we’ll schedule a phone call to get started. This is a chance for you to ask any questions you may have, and to learn more about what you can expect from us, so you can be sure we are a good fit for your needs.

Gathering Information

In order to best understand your current financial situation, we’ll collect all of your fiscal information and documentation. Having all the data we need in advance allows us to be well-prepared for the discovery meeting.

Discovery Meeting

Our highest priority is understanding your needs and your goals. During our discovery meeting, we carefully listen to your story, your hopes, and your long-term financial goals. Then we begin crafting a comprehensive plan specifically designed for you.

Your Custom-Made Wealth Plan

Our financial plans are specifically designed just for you and the life you desire to build. Once our skilled and experienced advisors craft a wealth plan that meets all your needs, we’ll connect with you to share and explain our guidance and recommendations. After reviewing your detailed file together, we create space to hear your feedback and answer any additional questions you may have.

Implementation

Once you have approved your customized wealth plan, we get to work putting your wealth plan into action, from your investments, retirement preparation, tax and estate planning, charitable giving, and everything else. We’ll make sure you stay informed by setting up meetings for every new step, then afterwards as often as you’d like.

Continuing Stewardship

We are committed to your journey toward financial independence, which means we will provide consistent and ongoing supervision of your finances. We’ll stay informed of market changes, and we’ll keep in touch with you through regular check-ins so you are always aware of your financial health.

Building a life of wealth begins with a simple introduction.

The first step on your journey toward a life of wealth and purpose begins today. Get in touch with us to request an advisor, or let us connect you with the financial advisor who is just right for your needs.

Jeffrey T. Dobyns

President, SageSpring | Financial Advisor, RJFS

Jeff Dobyns has enjoyed extraordinary success providing comprehensive financial planning to retirees, entrepreneurs, entertainers, and executives by taking the time to truly know his clients, understand their goals and develop and execute their ongoing, strategic, financial plans.

Jeff earned his finance degree in business administration from Ohio University and has held executive positions with financial planning firms for more than two decades. After serving as Vice President of Investments of Lykins Financial Group, CPA’s, in his hometown of Westerville, Ohio, Jeff moved to Nashville, Tennessee to found SageSpring Wealth Partners in 2002. As its President, Jeff has led SageSpring to remarkable success, holding the distinction of being one of Raymond James’ top independent contractor offices, and a member of its Chairman’s Council*, every year since 2008.

Jeff’s true calling, however, is working directly with clients, helping them plan their financial futures in a manner that aligns with their values and helps provide them with financial confidence. To help meet these goals, Jeff leads the team of Dobyns Wealth Team and also incorporates the expertise of attorneys, accountants and other professionals to provide quality financial, tax and estate planning, and ongoing asset and risk management.

As independent advisory businesses, neither SageSpring Wealth Partners nor Dobyns Wealth Team hold any assets on behalf of clients, with such custodial and brokerage services being provided by Raymond James. As a leader in wealth management, Raymond James has an exemplary reputation and today serves more than $930 billion in client assets through 8,200 financial advisors worldwide (as of 9/30/2020).

In order to meet the highest standards of professionalism and ethics in the industry, Jeff is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM practitioner**, a Chartered Life Underwriter and a Chartered Financial Consultant. Jeff is also a participant of the Dave Ramsey SmartVestor program.

Jeff’s work and personal life are both guided by his faith and the Christian principles of honesty, generosity, compassion, and integrity. Accordingly, Jeff devotes considerable time and resources to a number of causes, including serving as a board member of Men of Valor, a prison ministry and mentoring program. He is also on the advisory board of The Signatry of Middle Tennessee, which works with families to increase their charitable giving to their favorite causes. Additionally, Jeff is on the advisory board for Halftime Institute, an organization that coaches marketplace leaders to discern and engage in their life purpose. Lastly, Jeff serves on the board of the Legacy Center of Nashville, a collaboration of independent coaching resources. He is a past board member of Porter’s Call, a Nashville charity that provides free counseling for musicians and their families, and the Martha O’Bryan Center, which empowers those in poverty to transform their lives through work, education, employment, and fellowship.

Jeff and his wife, Amy, are raising their family in Brentwood where they are members of the Brentwood Baptist Church, and their children, Gracyn, Hunter, and twins Tanner and Logan, attend the Christ Presbyterian Academy. For recreation, Jeff enjoys hunting, fishing and just being outdoors.
