Our Story
Built on Relationships. Guided by Purpose. Anchored in What Matters.
2009 | Where It All Began
Every great partnership begins with a shared vision.
In 2009, Josh Eisenberg and Andrew Runnion joined forces with a belief that financial planning should be about more than investments, numbers, and transactions. They recognized that behind every financial decision was a person, a family, a business, and a future worth protecting.
Their vision was simple: build meaningful relationships, provide thoughtful financial guidance, and help clients navigate life's most important financial decisions with clarity and confidence.
What began as two professionals working together would eventually become the foundation of something much greater.
Growing Together | Strength Through Partnership
As their practices developed, so did their understanding of what it meant to serve clients well.
Financial planning was becoming increasingly complex. Families needed guidance that extended beyond investment accounts. Business owners needed strategies that considered both their professional and personal financial lives. Individuals approaching retirement needed thoughtful coordination of investments, income planning, and long-term financial goals.
Meeting those needs required more than individual expertise. It required collaboration.
Over time, the vision expanded to bring together experienced financial professionals who shared a common commitment to service, integrity, and long-term relationships.
Each new partnership brought fresh perspectives, specialized knowledge, and valuable experience. Yet the guiding philosophy remained unchanged: put relationships first and build financial strategies around what matters most to each client.
2020–2021 | A New Identity Takes Shape
As the team continued to grow, the vision for a unified wealth management firm became a reality with the establishment of Anchor Financial Partners.
The name Anchor was chosen to represent the qualities the team sought to bring to every client relationship: stability, strength, confidence, and a steady source of guidance through life's changing circumstances.
Just as an anchor provides security amid shifting waters, the firm was built around the idea that sound financial planning can help individuals and families remain focused on their long-term goals, even when markets and circumstances change.
The formation of Anchor Financial Partners brought together experienced advisors, complementary strengths, and a shared commitment to comprehensive financial planning.
It also established the foundation for a firm designed to grow beyond any one individual, creating continuity for clients and opportunities for future generations.
Expanding Our Reach | More Experience, One Shared Vision
What began with a partnership between Josh and Andrew evolved into a team of six partners: Frank Conner, Josh Eisenberg, Andrew Runnion, Brandon Porter, Kyle Brooker, and Trey Beavers.
Each brought a distinct background, perspective, and set of relationships to the firm.
Together, they strengthened Anchor's ability to serve individuals, families, executives, and business owners across a wide range of financial needs.
Behind the advisors, a growing team of investment operations, business development, and client service professionals became an essential part of the firm's success.
As Anchor expanded its presence across Georgia and Florida, its commitment remained the same: combine the personal attention of a relationship-driven practice with the knowledge, resources, and collaborative strength of a larger team.
The firm's growth was never intended to be simply about becoming bigger. It was about becoming better equipped to serve the people who placed their trust in Anchor.
2026 | The Next Chapter
In 2026, Anchor Financial Partners entered an exciting new chapter, taking a significant step forward in its long-term vision for the firm.
Through its relationship with LPL Financial, Anchor expanded its access to investment solutions, technology, research, and operational resources, creating new opportunities to enhance the services and capabilities available to clients.
This evolution represented more than a change in infrastructure. It was an investment in the future of the firm and the families it serves.
With an expanded team, offices serving clients across multiple communities, and a broader range of resources, Anchor continued building a foundation designed to support thoughtful financial planning for years to come.
While the firm has evolved considerably since 2009, its most important principles have remained constant.
The relationships are still personal. The commitment to service remains unwavering. And the focus continues to be on helping clients pursue the futures they envision.
Our Future | Anchored in What Matters
Today, Anchor Financial Partners is the product of years of experience, trusted relationships, shared ambition, and a belief that great things are accomplished when the right people work together toward a common purpose.
But the story is far from finished.
As Anchor looks ahead, the firm remains committed to developing its people, strengthening its capabilities, embracing thoughtful innovation, and building relationships that can endure across generations.
Because ultimately, success isn't measured simply by the size of a firm or the assets it oversees.
It's measured by the people it serves, the trust it earns, and the lasting impact it makes.
From two advisors joining forces in 2009 to a growing team united by one purpose, Anchor Financial Partners continues to move forward with a clear vision: helping people navigate their financial futures with confidence, clarity, and a steady hand.
Our foundation is built on relationships. Our future is guided by purpose. And through every chapter, we remain anchored in what matters most.
