Business Consulting

Business Consultation

Running a business means making financial decisions every day, and those decisions compound over time. As Livingston County's 2025 Community Choice Award winner for Best Financial Advisor, Bradford Financial Advisors brings nearly 30 years of experience and a team with degrees in finance, accounting, and business to help local business owners build on solid financial ground. Whether you are just getting started or looking to grow what you have already built, we offer clear, practical guidance without the jargon or the pressure.


*All consulting and guidance is within the scope of financial planning and tax planning. No legal service or advice is provided.

Business Development and Financial Strategy

Growth without a financial plan behind it can create as many problems as it solves. We work alongside business owners in Livingston County to align their day-to-day financial decisions with longer-term goals, from managing cash flow to planning for major transitions like expansion, succession, or exit.

Tax Planning for Business Owners

Business taxes are rarely straightforward, and waiting until tax season to think about them is one of the most common and costly mistakes we see. We work with business owners throughout the year to identify strategies that reduce tax liability, keep more money in the business, and support long-term financial health.

Retirement Planning for the Self-Employed

Business owners often put their own retirement last, pouring everything back into the company instead. We help you build a retirement strategy that works alongside your business, whether that means a SEP-IRA, Solo 401k, or another vehicle tailored to your income and goals.
