Sunday’s edition of The Sacramento Bee carried some very good news for three of our clients. When the 2026 Sacramento Favorites results came out on November 8, ProsperPlan Wealth, Solid Construction & Design, and Filco Superstore had earned six medals between them, including four golds.
Sacramento Favorites is decided by public vote, and more than 378,000 votes were cast this year. Every one of these medals came from customers and neighbors who took a few minutes to vote for a business they trust. We work closely with all three teams, and we are thrilled for each of them.

Here is a closer look at each winner.
ProsperPlan Wealth Goes Two for Two
ProsperPlan Wealth swept both of its categories, taking gold for Favorite Financial Planner and Favorite Wealth Management. Last year the Gold River firm won gold in financial planning and silver in wealth management, so this year’s results are a clear step up.
Co-founders Chris Grellas, CFP®, MSFA, and Lauren Williams, CFP®, CRPC®, MBA, lead an independent team that helps retirees and families plan for what comes next, from financial planning in Sacramento to retirement planning. Their tagline puts it simply: “The life you want tomorrow starts with the decisions you make today.”
Solid Construction & Design Leads the Pack With Three Medals
Solid Construction & Design came away with the biggest haul of any of our clients. The Sacramento design-build firm won gold for Favorite Remodeler/Contractor, gold for Favorite Custom Homebuilder, and silver for Favorite Homebuilder.
Their team handles design, plans, permits, and construction under one roof, so homeowners work with the same people from the first sketch to the final walkthrough. With nearly 2,000 projects behind them, including more than 1,000 kitchen remodels, their crews know how to spot problems early. For homeowners, that means fewer surprises and fewer change orders.
Filco Superstore Brings Home Silver
Filco Superstore earned silver for Favorite Appliance Store. The store has been family-owned and on Fulton Avenue since 1971, and shoppers can open every door on premium appliance brands like Thermador, Bosch, GE Café, and JennAir before they buy. Filco’s team handles rebates, delivery, and installation in-house.
Filco and Solid share a 28,000-square-foot showroom inside the Filco Superstore, which makes it easy to pick your appliances and plan the remodel around them in one visit. You can congratulate both teams in person at their open house at the showroom on November 20.
Earned One Customer at a Time
Public-vote awards are won long before the ballot opens. Our team was glad to help these clients rally votes and build their ads for the 2026 Sacramento Favorites magazine, but the credit belongs to them and to the customers who voted.
A medal like this builds trust everywhere the badge appears, and it gives happy customers an easy reason to refer a friend.
Congratulations once more to ProsperPlan Wealth, Solid Construction & Design, and Filco Superstore. If you would like help turning your own reputation into more leads, grab time with us.
