Say that I want my Ideal Clients to pay me $5000 per year, ideally where does that income come from? Planning fees, AUM, insurance sales?

Preferably, a flat fee. Almost certainly not from insurance sales as they generate a commission that does not recur.

b Are Phone Consultations™ or any aspect of Values-Based Financial Planning™ subject to the "Do Not Call" legislation?
b Recently I have completed due diligence and purchase of a direct property investment with one of my ideal clients. Following this transaction I have had a subsequent meeting with the investment administrator and he has given me a lead to another of his investors who, the investment administrator indicated, seemed to be a bit unsure and could possibly benefit from professional advice. To be clear this was not a referral, in sales school/language it was a lead, given as a way to encourage me to show more clients his investment options. I have completed some research on this lead and he is definitely someone that I want to talk to and have him and his wife in for a Financial Road Map® Interview. How do I make the initial contact with this potential client without coming across as a salesperson following up on a lead? I am considering a letter introducing myself and my business, followed by a phone call, however I am concerned that this will be dismissed as just another sales pitch.
b Do we set a fee and then reduce it for what we collect in advisory fees (% AUM )and then bill the difference?
b I'm not convinced I have the complete answer to the question, ‘What kind of clients do you serve best?’ Do you have any suggestions? We work with corporate executives, professionals, and business owners that want to spend more time with their families and doing things that are important to them. These people are delegators that have a strong desire to achieve their goals. The clients we serve best have financial assets of over $900,000.
b I am looking to partner with a CFP to write my financial plans. I am finding it difficult to find a qualified planner in my community that will take on this kind of work. Would you recommend hiring a full time CFP on our staff to write our financial plans? What about some of the outsourced financial planners that will write financial plans for advisors?
