While finanical planning can be imperative for setting up future goals, knowing how financial planners work -- and what approach works best for you -- can be tricky.

In a video by Entrepreneur Network partner Brittney Castro, the certified financial planner goes over three different ways that people charge for financial planning.

The first method she explains is through a commission-based model. Financial professionals may charge a commission based on the products or solutions they offer you -- this is usually done through mutual funds or insurance policies. Another way is by taking a percentage of the assets they manage for you. The last method Castro explains is a flat-fee method, which is determined on the services needed and the complexity of the financial life.
