What We Do
New Era Financial Planning was founded to provide everyday Australians with high-quality, reliable financial advice that’s truly accessible—because your income shouldn’t stand in the way of financial security. We have now grown into a community that empowers our members to take control of their money, on their own terms. We’re here to help young Australians not just succeed, but thrive, so you can create a positive, lasting impact in your own life. After all, it’s you, and the people who matter most to you, that are at the heart of everything we do.
How We Do It
Who We Are
Anyone can say that they’re different from other providers. And while our on-demand, online advice, provided by a team with a wealth of industry experience might tick that box, we don’t think it’s enough.
I founded New Era because people needed something better. I’ve faced similar challenges and hurdles in life as you have, and have seen friends going through the same. By doing things right, with a proven system and expert guidance, I believe everyone can achieve financial independence.
Where We Come From
We’ve brought together top talent from across Australia to provide you with the expertise you need to reach your financial goals. Backed by our global network and trusted partners, we deliver the high-quality service you deserve. At New Era Financial Planning, values and expertise go hand in hand—you’ll experience our commitment and personalised approach at every step of your journey with us.

Client Stories
James, Melbourne
“So much clarity. Money mostly seems like a sensitive topic and other companies pushed me back as ‘too young’ to take on as a client… The peace of mind from a plan unique to my lifestyle is honestly a gamechanger.”
James had been trying to break into the property market for a while. With our advice and support, we ensured his property purchase went smoothly. He’s now in his own home and couldn’t be happier.
Jess & Aaron, Melbourne
“Working with Dan has been great. It’s nice they’ve taken time to create that level of trust, which we really wanted when it came to our money… The flexibility to meet up at any time is invaluable.”
Jess & Aaron had been tracking along reasonably well and were ready to invest for their future. We set their financial foundations, a safety net and helped them build their investments and get on the path to financial freedom.
Ash, Melbourne
“So much clarity, now I have someone who mentors my investing decisions.”
Ash wasn’t sure of the right way to start & build his portfolio. With our help, Ash purchased an investment property in 12 months, fast-tracking his goal of financial independence.
Louise & Alan, NSW
“Daniel listens carefully to your needs and goals, then carefully assesses and advises you on an appropriately tailored all-around package to provide financial protection and the means to achieve financial security.”
Louise was worried about her financial security when finishing work. With the right planning and strategy over the last half a decade or so, Louise has now retired early, along with Alan. They now spend their time travelling & visiting family .
