The Six Circle Strategy

The Entrepreneur’s Journey to Wealth and Freedom

Chris S. Reynolds

Build the best business and the best life by focusing on what matters most.

Everyone who wants to achieve something great in life experiences side journeys, setbacks, and opportunities. As an entrepreneur, you know this to be true more than anyone: the journey to entrepreneurial success is never a straight line. Wealth management entrepreneur Chris S. Reynolds has learned firsthand throughout his successful career that preparing for a winding journey is the difference between success and failure. In The Six Circle Strategy, he shares his strategy on how different circles are a key tool for you to get your business on the looping road to financial soundness.

Entrepreneurship is a long game, and it requires us to set clear boundaries about what we want and can do, and what we should leave outside of our circle of influence. And circles are lenses to help us focus on what matters most. They let us revisit our choices, change and rebuild our skills, and come back to our clients with all we’ve learned. By adopting Reynolds’s Six Circles method, you can follow this pattern from your initial vision to business accomplishment. You will learn why self-awareness sets up success at its early stage, how to create a trusted client base with the people you want to know, and to build sustainability in your business by avoiding burnout. Reynolds shows us that entrepreneurship doesn’t have to be a slog, and you can not only create value for you and your clients but also leave everyone happy—not just satisfied.

Chris S. Reynolds’ know-how, developed over thirty years of building, buying, growing, and selling his own businesses, teaches you how to build these circles for yourself. With The Six Circle Strategy, you’ll be ready for any curve your entrepreneur journey throws at you, without sacrificing your clients’ or your own happiness. This isn’t just a guide to building a business—it’s a roadmap for a long-term, successful entrepreneurial future.

Chris Reynolds started his career as a financial advisor because he loves working with people and helping them solve problems. This same passion motivated him to cofound Investment Planning Counsel as a firm built by advisors for advisors, with a client-first philosophy. More than thirty years later, his roles and responsibilities have evolved, but his fundamental interest in people and problem-solving remains as strong as ever. Chris focuses much of his energy on inspiring his team to create and embrace new opportunities in the wealth management industry, guided by evolving client needs. He also explores opportunities for advisors to build a better business through his Turning the Page podcast.
