Our Strategic Business Planning Services

Key Person Insurance
Protecting your business from the loss of a key person is critical so you’re still able to sail and keep your business running without them.
We can help determine the potential economic impact and what it takes to cover your business in case one of your key employees passes away unexpectedly or becomes disabled.

Executive Compensation
While we’re not saying you need to give every executive the keys to a brand new fishing boat, the right compensation plan could actually be your key to lasting success. We can help determine the best payment and benefit strategy to encourage executive retention and keep key personnel with your business for the long term.

WayPilot Program
If you’re buying business insurance through traditional routes, you could be overpaying.
Our WayPilot Program is designed to allow businesses to secure essential insurance at the lowest possible price and with the highest probability of success.
We Look At Key Person Insurance in 3D
- We use a 3D approach to ensure your business is protected “from all angles”
- We are independent – we have no ties to big insurance companies or incentives to sell certain products over another
- We have pioneered an insurance acquisition process called the WayPilot Program where you shop actual rates, not speculative ones.

Is your business ready for the future?
