About Us
Help serve the financial services industry
Our Story
elev8 was formed to bring the market a collective and new approach in financial consulting services. We have come together through many financial industry disciplines, relevant practical experiences, diverse sales cultures, and most important…market proven leadership. We view ourselves as the missing piece in your journey to future successes. And as partners who are invested in you fulfilling that dream, not just consultants checking a box. We were formed to be a conduit for established institutional partners to marry into the financial system disruptors in order to create the new financial market of tomorrow. We are here to help serve the financial services industry #elev8withus!
Our Culture
elev8’s founding and Managing Partner; Adam Spencer’s motto of, “winning alone is not winning” is the foundation elev8 is built around, and it shapes everything we do. Through this, a culture has been created where mutual respect and a true family feel are present not only among the internal team, but with our external partners as well. No one works “for” anyone, everyone works “with” each other. The saying, “if you take care of your team, they will take care of your clients” rings true in our organization.
We live through a set of demonstrable and actionable items that can be seen in our work. We believe these items also illustrate our commitment to validating our work through creating success for our partners:
Do Everything With Integrity
Always Deliver Focused Engagement
Be Market Relevant
Be Creative
Deliver Your Experience in Passionate Ways
Don’t be Afraid to be Bold
BE SOMEONE
