What You Need: Wisdom & Relationships

When I left the corporate ranks after 20+ years, advisors in my network started calling. “I’m thinking of moving my practice,” they’d say. “You know the industry. Where should I go?”

That question sparked the idea for Muriel Consulting.

I quickly realized that advisors making a move were underserved. They didn’t need introductions; they could get those on their own. What they needed was strategic guidance, creative problem-solving, and a trusted partner to help them build something lasting. From marketing and HR to client experience and tech infrastructure, we roll up our sleeves and support advisors through every stage of launching or growing their business.

Relationships drive our results. We build close partnerships with the advisors we serve and bring in a trusted circle of attorneys, tech vendors, compliance consultants, and other experts to support their success.

Muriel Consulting was built to do what others don’t. We guide advisors not just to the next door, but through it with confidence.

Advisors making a move often ask: “Is this a good deal?” The truth is, you won’t know—because these deals aren’t public, and advisors can’t always compare notes. That’s where we come in.

As a financial advisor recruiting firm, we see deals every day—across firms, transitions, and structures. We know what’s possible, what’s fair, and the deal levers we can pull. Our data-backed negotiation strategies ensure you don’t just accept an offer—you maximize it.

  • 20% increase in final deal value for one team, securing the largest offer ever given to an Edward Jones team.

  • Negotiated upfront transition assistance where none was originally expected.

  • Increased deal terms for every client we’ve worked with.

Most advisors leave money on the table. We make sure you don’t.
