About

Get to know Paul

Paul Georgopulos leads marketing, technology, and operations at Mana Financial Group, where he's responsible for helping more families discover the firm and experience its education-first, no-pressure approach.

A lifelong entrepreneur from Illinois, Paul previously built and sold Illinois Fence, a successful fencing company, and has founded and run several ventures over the years. That hands-on business experience shapes how he builds Mana's marketing, systems, and client experience — with the same care the advisors bring to financial planning.

Paul's connection to Mana runs deeper than business. He has known Tim Dern for 25 years, married Tim's daughter Natalie 18 years ago, and has worked alongside the firm since its founding more than two decades back. That history shapes how he approaches the work: he shares Mana's commitment to treating every client like family — and to making sure growth never comes at the expense of the personal, attentive experience that defines the firm.

"Great marketing isn't about noise — it's about clarity. My goal is to make sure families who need Mana can find us, understand us, and feel welcomed from the very first interaction."

Beyond the office

Outside of work, Paul enjoys time with his family, exploring new business ideas, and staying active in the Illinois community. He brings the same entrepreneurial energy and relationship-first mindset to his family life that he brings to building Mana's brand and operations.
