Approach

Polaris Planning will utilize local companies in the area for their services. These companies will have top billing in our numerous package deals we will offer our clients.

Polaris Planning will create agreements with local companies to provide an abundant amount of services at a discounted rate.

These agreements will provide a certain volume of business for their company with the use of our package deals and keep the revenue within the local economy.

These companies will include but not be limited to limo service, restaurants, floral shops, venues for shows and entertainment and local jewelers.
