Why we founded Rock Harbor

Sean Ritchlin

“After spending a decade in the wholesale industry, I saw an opportunity for a different way to distribute financial strategies to advisors across the country. Traditional wholesale models can get bogged down in activity tracking and an overwhelming amount of product to sell, leading to massive frustration on the sales and management teams alike. By developing a team focused on a smaller product mix from a few asset mangers, we sensed we could change the long-standing way of distribution. We believe combining a digital approach along with a PEOPLE approach offers the best combination for wholesalers to have the freedom to perform. This model has proven to be extremely successful for our business, and more importantly, for our partners.

Jordan managed hundreds of millions for retirees at U.S. Bank during the 2008 financial crisis at age 22. That formative experience shaped everything: his view of risk, client psychology, and what alignment really means in wealth management. In this episode we cover: → Why Baker Street grew from $6B to $20B in a decade → The "two silent killers" eating your portfolio: fees and taxes → How to think about alternatives without getting burned → Managing concentrated stock positions for ultra-high-net-worth clients → Why secondary strategies are outperforming right now → The biggest market misconception investors have today Whether you're an advisor, investor, or just trying to understand how the best RIAs think — this one's worth your full attention.
