About this template

Most clients have five goals and one budget. The Goals Priority Assessment scores each stated goal — retirement, home, education, protection, business, legacy — on urgency, life-stage impact, funding gap and consequence-of-delay, then produces a weighted priority ranking. The AI PDF report shows the recommended sequence and which goals conflict for the same capital, giving advisers a defensible basis for the first allocation conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Goals Priority Assessment template?
It is a free, ready-to-use template for financial advisers and insurance professionals.
How is priority calculated?
Each goal is scored on urgency, impact, funding gap and delay consequence; the weighted total produces the ranking.
Does it decide for the client?
No — it surfaces the trade-offs quantitatively so the client decides with a clear view of consequences.
Can goals be re-ranked over time?
Yes — rerun at each review; dated responses show how priorities shifted.
How does it resolve competing goals?
Each goal is scored on clarity, funding, timeline and importance, so conflicting objectives are settled by weighted scores rather than the loudest ask in the room.
Does the ranking decide for the client?
No — it surfaces a defensible priority order the client can agree with or override, and rerunning the assessment shows how rankings shift year to year.
