Item 4 – Advisory Services
A. Firm Information
MKT Advisors LLC (“MKT Advisors” or the “Advisor”) is a registered investment advisor with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Advisor is organized as a Limited Liability Company (“LLC”) under the laws of
the State of California. MKT Advisors was founded in March 2012 and has been operating as a registered
investment advisor since May 2012.
Effective, December 31, 2021, Taylor C. Jobe (Managing Member and Chief Compliance Officer) serves as the
Principal Officer of the Advisor. Prior to December 31, 2021, MKT Advisors was owned by Marc L. Hodgkins and
Timothy H. Jobe. For information regarding this Disclosure Brochure, please contact Taylor Jobe at (760) 658-
8780.
This Disclosure Brochure provides information regarding the qualifications, business practices, and the advisory
services provided by MKT Advisors. For questions regarding this Disclosure Brochure, please contact Taylor Jobe
at (760) 658-8790 or by email at mkt@mktadvisorsllc.com.
B. Advisory Services Offered
MKT Advisors offers investment advisory services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates,
charitable organizations, foundations, businesses, and/or retirement plans (each referred to as a “Client”).
The Advisor serves as a fiduciary to Clients, as defined under the applicable laws and regulations. As a fiduciary,
the Advisor upholds a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client and seeks to mitigate potential
conflicts of interest. MKT Advisor’s fiduciary commitment is further described in the Advisor’s Code of Ethics. For
more information regarding the Code of Ethics, please see Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in
Client Transactions and Personal Trading.
Investment Management Services
MKT Advisors provides customized investment advisory solutions for its Clients. This is achieved through
continuous personal Client contact and interaction while providing discretionary and non-discretionary investment
management and related advisory services. MKT Advisors works closely with each Client to identify their
investment goals and objectives as well as risk tolerance and financial situation in order to create a portfolio
strategy. MKT Advisors will then construct an investment portfolio, consisting of individual stocks, individual bonds,
exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, and/or options to achieve the Client’s investment goals. The
Advisor may also utilize other types of investments, as appropriate, to meet the needs of the Client. The Advisor
may retain other types of investments from the Client’s legacy portfolio due to fit with the overall portfolio strategy,
tax-related reasons, or other reasons as identified between the Advisor and the Client. The client’s individual
investment strategy is tailored to their specific needs and stated objectives and may include some or all the
previously mentioned securities.
MKT Advisor’s investment strategies are primarily long-term focused, but the Advisor may buy, sell or re-allocate
positions that have been held for less than one year to meet the objectives of the Client or due to market
conditions. MKT Advisors will construct, implement and monitor the portfolio to ensure it meets the goals,
objectives, circumstances, and risk tolerance agreed to by the Client. Each Client will have the opportunity to place
reasonable restrictions on the types of investments to be held in their respective portfolio, subject to acceptance by
the Advisor.
MKT Advisors evaluates and selects investments for inclusion in Client portfolios only after applying its internal due
diligence process. MKT Advisors may recommend, on occasion, redistributing investment allocations to diversify
the portfolio. MKT Advisors may recommend specific positions to increase sector or asset class weightings. The
Advisor may recommend employing cash positions as a possible hedge against market movement. MKT Advisors
may recommend selling positions for reasons that include, but are not limited to, harvesting capital gains or losses,
business or sector risk exposure to a specific security or class of securities, overvaluation or overweighting of the
position[s] in the portfolio, change in risk tolerance of the Client, generating cash to meet Client needs, or any risk
deemed unacceptable for the Client’s risk tolerance.

At no time will MKT Advisors accept or maintain custody of a Client’s funds or securities, except for the limited
authority as outlined in Item 15 – Custody. All Client assets will be managed within the designated account[s] at the
Custodian, pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.
Financial Consulting / Planning – MKT Advisors may also provide a variety of financial consulting and planning
services to Clients as part of its advisory relationship. This consulting may encompass one or more of the following
areas: Investment Planning, Retirement Planning, Estate Planning, Charitable Planning, Education Planning,
Insurance Analysis, and Business and/or Personal Financial Planning. Our financial consultations rendered to
Clients usually include personalized recommendations for a course of activity or specific actions to be taken by the
Client. For example, recommendations may be made that the Client begins or revises investment programs,
create or revise wills or trusts, obtain or revise insurance coverage, commence or alter retirement savings, or
establish education or charitable giving programs. It should also be noted that the Advisor may refer the Client to
an accountant, attorney or other specialist, as necessary for non-advisory related services.
Use of Independent Managers – MKT Advisors may also recommend that a Client utilize one or more unaffiliated
investment managers or investment platforms (collectively “Independent Managers”) for all or a portion of a Client’s
investment portfolio. In such instances, the Client may be required to authorize and enter into an advisory
agreement with the Independent Manager[s] that defines the terms in which the Independent Manager[s] will
provide investment management and related services. The Advisor may also assist in the development of the initial
policy recommendations and managing the ongoing Client relationship. The Advisor will perform initial and ongoing
oversight and due diligence over the selected Independent Manager[s] to ensure the Independent Managers’
strategies and target allocations remain aligned with investment objectives and overall best interests. The Client,
prior to entering into an agreement with unaffiliated investment manager[s] or investment platform[s], will be
provided with the Independent Manager's Form ADV 2A (or a brochure that makes the appropriate disclosures).
C. Client Account Management
Prior to engaging MKT Advisors to provide investment advisory services, each Client is required to enter into a
written agreement with the Advisor that define the terms, conditions, authority and responsibilities of the Advisor
and the Client. These services may include:
• Establishing an Investment Strategy – MKT Advisors, in connection with the Client, will develop a strategy
that seeks to achieve the Client’s goals and objectives.
• Asset Allocation – MKT Advisors will develop a strategic asset allocation that is targeted to meet the
investment objectives, time horizon, financial situation and tolerance for risk for each Client.
• Portfolio Construction – MKT Advisors will develop a portfolio for the Client that is intended to meet the
stated goals and objectives of the Client.
•
Investment Management and Supervision – MKT Advisors will provide investment management and
ongoing oversight of the Client’s investment portfolio.
D. Wrap Fee Programs
MKT Advisors does not manage or place Client assets into a wrap fee program. Investment management services
are provided directly by MKT Advisors.
E. Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2024, MKT Advisors manages $422,577,650 in Client assets, $407,234,583 of which are
managed on a discretionary basis and $15,343,067 on a non-discretionary basis. Clients may request more current
information at any time by contacting the Advisor.

Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
The following paragraphs detail the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the
Advisor. Each Client engaging the Advisor for services described herein shall be required to enter into a written
agreement with the Advisor.
A. Fees for Advisory Services
Investment advisory fees are paid quarterly, in advance of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the terms of the
investment advisory agreement. Investment advisory fees are based on the market value of assets under
management at the end of the prior calendar quarter. Investment advisory fees are based on the following schedule:
Assets Under Management ($)
First $1,000,000
Next $4,000,000
Next $5,000,000
$10,000,000 and over
Annual Rate (%)
1.00%
0.65%
0.40%
0.35%
Relationships with multiple objectives, specific reporting requirements, portfolio restrictions and other complexities and
factors may be charged a higher fee, ranging up to 1.50%.
The investment advisory fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the inception date of the account[s] to the
end of the first quarter. Fees may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Advisor. The Client’s fees will take into
consideration the aggregate assets under management with the Advisor. All securities held in accounts managed by
MKT Advisors will be independently valued by the Custodian. The Advisor will conduct periodic reviews of the
Custodian’s valuation to ensure accurate billing.
The Advisor’s fee is exclusive of, and in addition to any applicable securities transaction and custody fees (if
applicable), and other related costs and expenses described in Item 5.C below, which may be incurred by the Client.
However, the Advisor shall not receive any portion of these commissions, fees, and costs.
Use of Independent Managers
As noted in Item 4, the Advisor may implement all or a portion of a Client’s investment portfolio utilizing one or more
Independent Managers. The Advisor does not receive or earn any compensation from any Independent Managers.
The Advisor will only earn its investment advisory fee as described above. An Independent Manager utilized by the
Advisor will charge the Client a fee that is in addition to the fee charged by the Advisor. The total blended fee,
including the Advisor’s fee and the Independent Manager’s fee paid by a Client, will typically not exceed 2.00%
annually.
B. Fee Billing
Investment advisory fees are calculated by the Advisor or its delegate and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at the
Custodian. The Advisor shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted from
the Client’s account[s] at the start of each respective calendar quarter. The amount due is calculated by applying the
quarterly rate (annual rate divided by 365 days multiplied by the number of days in the upcoming quarter) to the total
assets under management with MKT Advisors at the end of the prior quarter. Clients will be provided with a
statement, at least quarterly, from the Custodian reflecting deduction of the investment advisory fee. Clients are urged
to also review and compare the statement provided by the Custodian, as the Custodian does not perform a verification
of the Advisor’s fees. Clients provide written authorization permitting advisory fees to be deducted by MKT Advisors to
be paid directly from their account[s] held by the Custodian as part of the investment advisory agreement and
separate account forms provided by the Custodian.
In certain circumstances, the Client may be billed directly, such as when the Client does not wish for funds to be
withdrawn from a particular managed account (e.g., retirement accounts, custodial accounts, etc.), but rather prefers
to send their quarterly fee payment by alternative means, such as a check or via the use of a third-party payment
platform utilized by the Advisor.

Page 6
Use of Independent Managers – For Client accounts utilizing one or more Independent Manager, the Client’s overall
fees will include MKT Advisor’s investment advisory fee (as noted above) plus investment management fees and/or
platform fees charged by the Independent Manager. The Independent Manager will assume the responsibility for
calculating the Client’s fees and deducting all fees from the Client’s account[s].
C. Other Fees and Expenses
Clients may incur certain fees or charges imposed by third parties, other than MKT Advisors, in connection with
investments made on behalf of the Client’s account[s]. The Client is responsible for all custody and securities
execution fees charged by the Custodian, as applicable. The Advisor's recommended Custodian does not charge
securities transaction fees for ETF and equity trades in a Client's account, provided that the account meets the
terms and conditions of the Custodian's brokerage requirements. However, the Custodian typically charges for
mutual funds and other types of investments. The fees charged by MKT Advisors are separate and distinct from
these custody and execution fees.
In addition, all fees paid to MKT Advisors for investment advisory services are separate and distinct from the
expenses charged by mutual funds and ETFs to their shareholders, if applicable. These fees and expenses are
described in each fund’s prospectus. These fees and expenses will generally be used to pay management fees for
the funds, other fund expenses, account administration (e.g., custody, brokerage and account reporting), and a
possible distribution fee. A Client may be able to invest in these products directly, without the services of MKT
Advisors, but would not receive the services provided by MKT Advisors which are designed, among other things, to
assist the Client in determining which products or services are most appropriate for each Client’s financial situation
and objectives. Accordingly, the Client should review both the fees charged by the fund[s] and the fees charged by
MKT Advisors to fully understand the total fees to be paid. Please refer to Item 12 – Brokerage Practices for
additional information.
D. Advance Payment of Fees and Termination
MKT Advisors may be compensated for its investment management services in advance of the quarter in which
services are rendered. Either party may terminate the investment advisory agreement, at any time, by providing
advance written notice to the other party. The Client may also terminate the investment advisory agreement within five
(5) business days of signing the Advisor’s agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client will
incur charges for bona fide advisory services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and
payable by the Client. Upon termination, the Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid investment advisory fees from
the effective date of termination to the end of the quarter. The Client’s investment advisory agreement with the Advisor
is non-transferable without the Client’s prior consent.
Use of Independent Managers – In the event that a Client should wish to terminate the services of an Independent
Manager being utilized by the Advisor, the terms for termination will be set forth in the respective agreement between
the Advisor and the Independent Manager. MKT Advisors will assist the Client with the transition as appropriate.
E. Compensation for Sales of Securities
MKT Advisors does not buy or sell securities to earn commissions and does not receive any compensation for
securities transactions in any Client account, other than the investment advisory fees noted above.
However, Advisory Persons of MKT Advisors may also be licensed as independent insurance agents who can offer
insurance products and services, for which they would receive a non-securities insurance commission, in their
capacity as independent insurance agents.
If a Client purchases insurance from an Advisory Person in their capacity as insurance agent, the Advisory Person
will typically receive a commission directly from the chosen insurance company. This may present a conflict of
interest for MKT Advisors as the Advisory Person may have incentive to sell insurance for a commission. MKT
Advisors mitigates this conflict by full disclosure to Clients, both verbal and written, and provides this Disclosure
Brochure which Clients are encouraged to read carefully. Clients have the right to purchase any insurance product

or service recommendation from other insurance brokers or agents. Insurance commissions you pay may be higher
or lower when purchased through one of our Advisory Persons. Please also see item 10 below.
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
MKT Advisors does not charge performance-based fees for its investment advisory services. The fees charged by
MKT Advisors are as described in Item 5 above and are not based upon the capital appreciation of the funds or
securities held by any Client.
MKT Advisors does not manage any proprietary investment funds or limited partnerships (for example, a mutual
fund or a hedge fund) and has no financial incentive to recommend any particular investment options to its Clients.
Item 7 – Types of Clients
MKT Advisors services the following types of Clients:
Individuals and High Net Worth Individuals
•
• Trusts, Estates or Charitable Organizations and Foundations
• Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans
• Corporations, limited liability companies and/or other business types.
MKT Advisors generally welcomes new clients with portfolios in excess of $100,000. However, in its sole discretion
MKT Advisors may charge a lesser advisory fee or accept a new Client with lesser portfolio values based on certain
criteria, such as pre-existing financial planning Clients, anticipated future earning capacity of the Client, anticipated
future additional portfolio assets, related accounts, members of existing Client households or family members, etc.
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
A. Methods of Analysis
MKT Advisors primarily employs fundamental, technical, cyclical, and charting analysis methods in developing
investment strategies for its Clients. Research and analysis from MKT Advisors are derived from numerous
sources, including financial media companies, third-party research materials, Internet sources, and review of
company activities, including annual reports, prospectuses, press releases and research prepared by others.
Fundamental analysis utilizes economic and business indicators as investment selection criteria. This criterion
consists generally of ratios and trends that may indicate the overall strength and financial viability of the entity being
analyzed. Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria to indicate that they are a strong investment with
a value discounted by the market. While this type of analysis helps the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment,
it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in
the fundamental analysis may lose value and may have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors
these economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the
Advisor’s review process are included below in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
Technical analysis involves the analysis of past market data rather than specific company data in determining the
recommendations made to clients. Technical analysis may involve the use of charts to identify market patterns and
trends, which may be based on investor sentiment rather than the fundamentals of the company. The primary risk
in using technical analysis is that spotting historical trends may not help to predict such trends in the future. Even if
the trend will eventually reoccur, there is no guarantee that MKT Advisors will be able to accurately predict such a
reoccurrence.
Cyclical analysis is similar to technical analysis in that it involves the analysis of market conditions at a macro
(entire market/economy) or micro (company specific) level, rather than the overall fundamental analysis of the
health of the particular company that MKT Advisors is recommending. The risks with cyclical analysis are similar to
those of technical analysis.

Page 8
Charting analysis utilizes various market indicators as investment selection criteria. These criteria are generally
pricing trends that may indicate movement in the markets. Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria
to indicate that they are a strong investment with a value discounted by the market. While this type of analysis
helps the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in
value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in the technical and charting analysis may lose value and may
have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors these market indicators to determine if adjustments
to strategic allocations are appropriate.
As noted above, MKT Advisors generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its Clients, as consistent with
their financial goals. MKT Advisors will typically hold all or a portion of a security for more than a year, but may hold
for shorter periods for the purpose of rebalancing a portfolio or meeting the cash needs of Clients. At times, MKT
Advisors may also buy and sell positions that are more short-term in nature, depending on the goals of the Client
and/or the fundamentals of the security, sector or asset class.
Independent Manager Analysis: The Advisor generally evaluates the experience, expertise, investment
philosophies, and past performance of an Independent Manager to determine if the Independent Manager has
demonstrated an ability to provide the appropriate investment approach needed for the Client’s goals.
B. Risk of Loss
Investing in securities involves certain investment risks. Securities may fluctuate in value or lose value. Clients
should be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. MKT Advisors will assist Clients in determining an appropriate
strategy based on their tolerance for risk and other factors noted above. However, there is no guarantee that a
Client will meet their investment goals.
While the methods of analysis help the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the
investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in these methods of analysis may
lose value and may have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors these economic indicators to
determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the Advisor’s review process are
included below in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
Each Client engagement will entail a review of the Client's investment goals, financial situation, time horizon,
tolerance for risk and other factors to develop an appropriate strategy for managing a Client's account. Client
participation in this process, including full and accurate disclosure of requested information, is essential for the
analysis of a Client's account[s]. The Advisor shall rely on the financial and other information provided by the Client
or their designees without the duty or obligation to validate the accuracy and completeness of the provided
information. It is the responsibility of the Client to inform the Advisor of any changes in financial condition, goals or
other factors that may affect this analysis.
The risks associated with a particular strategy are provided to each Client in advance of investing Client accounts.
The Advisor will work with each Client to determine their tolerance for risk as part of the portfolio construction
process.
The following are some of the risks associated with the Advisor’s investment strategies:
Market Risks
The value of a Client’s holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to companies or markets, as well as
economic, political, or social events in the U.S. and abroad. This risk is linked to the performance of the overall
financial markets.
ETF Risks
The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the ETFs
will fluctuate with the price of the underlying securities that make up the funds. In addition, ETFs have a trading risk
based on the loss of cost efficiency if the ETFs are traded actively and a liquidity risk if the ETFs has a large bid-
ask spread and low trading volume. The price of an ETF fluctuates based upon the market movements and may

Page 9
dissociate from the index being tracked by the ETF or the price of the underlying investments. An ETF purchased
or sold at one point in the day may have a different price than the same ETF purchased or sold a short time later.
Bond, Bond ETFs, and Fixed Income Risks
Bond, Bond ETFs, and Fixed Income Securities are subject to specific risks, including the following: (1) interest rate
risks, i.e. the risk that bond prices will fall if interest rates rise, and vice versa, the risk depends on two things, the
bond's time to maturity, and the coupon rate of the bond. (2) reinvestment risk, i.e. the risk that any profit gained
must be reinvested at a lower rate than was previously being earned, (3) inflation risk, i.e. the risk that the cost of
living and inflation increase at a rate that exceeds the income investment thereby decreasing the investor’s rate of
return, (4) credit default risk, i.e. the risk associated with purchasing a debt instrument which includes the possibility
of the company defaulting on its repayment obligation, (5) rating downgrades, i.e. the risk associated with a rating
agency’s downgrade of the company’s rating which impacts the investor’s confidence in the company’s ability to
repay its debt and (6) Liquidity Risks, i.e. the risk that a bond may not be sold as quickly as there is no readily
available market for the bond.
Mutual Fund Risks
The performance of mutual funds is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the
mutual funds will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities that make up the funds. The price of a mutual
fund is typically set daily therefore a mutual fund purchased at one point in the day will typically have the same
price as a mutual fund purchased later that same day.
Independent Managers
When investing with an Independent Manager, there is the risk that the Independent Manager may not be able to
replicate its success in the future. In addition, as the Advisor does not control the underlying investments in an
Independent Manager’s portfolio, there is a risk that a manager may deviate from the stated investment mandate or
strategy of the portfolio, making it a less suitable investment for the Client. Moreover, as the Advisor does not
control the Independent Manager’s daily business and compliance operations, the Advisor may not be aware of any
lack of internal controls necessary to prevent business, regulatory or reputational deficiencies.
Options Contracts
Investments in options contracts have the risk of losing value in a relatively short period of time. Option contracts
are leveraged instruments that allow the holder of a single contract to control many shares of an underlying stock.
This leverage can compound gains or losses.
Margin Borrowings
The use of short-term margin borrowings may result in certain additional risks to a Client. For example, if securities
pledged to brokers to secure a Client's margin accounts decline in value, the Client could be subject to a "margin
call", pursuant to which it must either deposit additional funds with the broker or be the subject of mandatory
liquidation of the pledged securities to compensate for the decline in value.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities and other investments involve
a risk of loss that each Client should understand and be willing to bear. Clients are reminded to discuss
these risks with the Advisor.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
There are no legal, regulatory or disciplinary events involving MKT Advisors or any of its management
persons. MKT Advisors values the trust you place in the Advisor. The Advisor encourages Clients to perform the
requisite due diligence on any advisor or service provider that the Client engages. The backgrounds of the Advisor
and its Advisory Persons are available on the Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website at
www.adviserinfo.sec.gov by searching with the Advisor’s firm name or CRD# 163833.

Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Insurance Agency Affiliations
As noted in Item 5, certain Advisory Persons are also licensed insurance professionals. Implementations of
insurance recommendations are separate and apart from one’s role with MKT Advisors. As an insurance
professional, an Advisory Person may receive customary commissions and other related revenues from the various
insurance companies whose products are sold. The Advisory Person is not required to offer the products of any
particular insurance company. Commissions generated by insurance sales do not offset regular advisory fees. This
may cause a conflict of interest in recommending certain products of the insurance companies. Clients are under
no obligation to implement any recommendations made by an Advisory Persons or the Advisor.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
A. Code of Ethics
MKT Advisors has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines the Advisor’s fiduciary commitment to
each Client. This Code applies to all persons associated with MKT Advisors (“Supervised Persons”). The Code was
developed to provide general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding the Advisor’s duties to each
Client. MKT Advisors and its Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each
Client. It is the obligation of MKT Advisors’s Supervised Persons to adhere not only to the specific provisions of the
Code, but also to the general principles that guide the Code. The Code covers a range of topics that address
employee ethics and conflicts of interest. To request a copy of the Code, please contact the Advisor at (760) 658-
8790 or via email at mkt@mktadvisorsllc.com.
B. Personal Trading with Material Interest
MKT Advisors allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients. MKT Advisors does not act as principal in any transactions. In addition, the Advisor
does not act as the general partner of a fund, or advise an investment company. MKT Advisors does not have a
material interest in any securities traded in Client accounts.
C. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
MKT Advisors allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients. Owning the same securities that are recommended (purchase or sell) to Clients
presents a conflict of interest that, as fiduciaries, must be disclosed to Clients and mitigated through policies and
procedures. As noted above, the Advisor has adopted the Code to address insider trading (material non-public
information controls); gifts and entertainment; outside business activities and personal securities reporting. When
trading for personal accounts, Supervised Persons have a conflict of interest if trading in the same securities. The
fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of its Clients can be violated if personal trades are made with more
advantageous terms than Client trades, or by trading based on material non-public information. This risk is
mitigated by MKT Advisors requiring reporting of personal securities trades by its Supervised Persons for review by
the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). The Advisor has also adopted written policies and procedures to detect the
misuse of material, non-public information.
D. Personal Trading at Same Time as Client
While MKT Advisors allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended
to and purchased on behalf of Clients, such trades are typically aggregated with Client orders or traded afterwards.
At no time will MKT Advisors, or any Supervised Person of MKT Advisors, transact in any security to the
detriment of any Client.
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
A. Recommendation of Custodian[s]
MKT Advisors does not have discretionary authority to select the broker-dealer/custodian for custody and execution
services. The Client will engage the broker-dealer/custodian (herein the "Custodian") to safeguard Client assets
and authorize MKT Advisors to direct trades to the Custodian as agreed upon in the investment advisory
MKT Advisors LLC
900 Canterbury Place, Suite 340, Escondido, CA 92025
Phone: (760) 658-8780 | Fax: (916) 459-1792
https://mktadvisorsllc.com
Page 11
agreement. Further, MKT Advisors does not have the discretionary authority to negotiate commissions on behalf of
Clients on a trade-by-trade basis. Under certain instances, the Client may grant the Advisor limited authority to
place trades away from the Custodian. Please see Prime Brokerage Authorization below.
Where MKT Advisors does not exercise discretion over the selection of the Custodian, it may recommend the
Custodian to Clients for custody and execution services. Clients are not obligated to use the recommended
Custodian and will not incur any extra fee or cost from the Advisor associated with using a custodian not
recommended by MKT Advisors. However, the Advisor may be limited in the services it can provide if the
recommended Custodian is not engaged. MKT Advisors may recommend the Custodian based on criteria such as,
but not limited to, reasonableness of commissions charged to the Client, services made available to the Client, and
its reputation and/or the location of the Custodian’s offices. MKT Advisors will generally recommend that Clients
establish their account[s] at Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), a FINRA-registered broker-dealer and member
SIPC. Schwab will serve as the Client’s “qualified custodian”. MKT Advisors maintains an institutional relationship
with Schwab, whereby the Advisor receives economic benefits from Schwab. Please see Item 14 below.
Special Considerations for ERISA Clients – A retirement or ERISA Plan Client may direct all or part of portfolio
transactions for its account through a specific broker or dealer to obtain goods or services on behalf of the Plan.
Such direction is permitted provided that the goods and services provided are reasonable expenses of the Plan
incurred in the ordinary course of its business for which it otherwise would be obligated and empowered to pay.
ERISA prohibits directed brokerage arrangements when the goods or services purchased are not for the exclusive
benefit of the Plan. Consequently, we will request that Plan Sponsor, who directs Plan brokerage, provide us with a
letter documenting any arrangements.
Following are additional details regarding the brokerage practices of the Advisor:
1. Soft Dollars - Soft dollars are revenue programs offered by broker-dealers/custodians whereby an advisor
enters into an agreement to place security trades with a broker-dealer/custodian in exchange for research and
other services. MKT Advisors does not participate in soft dollar programs sponsored or offered by any broker-
dealer/custodian. However, the Advisor receives certain economic benefits from the Custodian. Please see Item 14
below.
2. Brokerage Referrals - MKT Advisors does not receive any compensation from any third party in connection with
the recommendation for establishing an account.
3. Directed Brokerage - All Clients are serviced on a “directed brokerage basis”, where MKT Advisors will place
trades within the established account[s] at the Custodian designated by the Client. Further, all Client accounts are
traded within their respective account[s]. The Advisor will not engage in any principal transactions (i.e., trade of any
security from or to the Advisor’s own account) or cross transactions with other Client accounts (i.e., purchase of a
security into one Client account from another Client’s account[s]). MKT Advisors will not be obligated to select
competitive bids on securities transactions and does not have an obligation to seek the lowest available transaction
costs. These costs are determined by the Custodian.
4. Prime Brokerage - The Advisor may execute securities transactions either through the Custodian or through
another unaffiliated broker-dealer in connection with a prime brokerage relationship established with the
Custodian. Should a Client’s account[s] make use of prime brokerage, the Client is required to execute additional
agreement[s] with the Custodian authorizing the Advisor to trade-away from and settle to the Client’s established
account[s] at the Custodian. The Custodian may charge an additional trade-away fee for these transactions in
addition to the normal securities transaction costs.
B. Aggregating and Allocating Trades
MKT Advisors perform investment management services for various Clients. There are occasions on which portfolio
transactions may be executed as part of concurrent authorizations to purchase or sell the same security for
numerous accounts served by the Advisor, which involve accounts with similar investment objectives. Although
such concurrent authorizations potentially could be either advantageous or disadvantageous to any one or more
particular accounts, they are affected only when we believe that to do so will be in the best interest of the effected
MKT Advisors LLC

Phone: (760) 658-8780 | Fax: (916) 459-1792
https://mktadvisorsllc.com
Page 12
accounts. When such concurrent authorizations occur, the objective is to allocate the executions in a manner which
is deemed equitable to the accounts involved. In any given situation, MKT Advisors attempts to allocate trade
executions in the most equitable manner possible, taking into consideration Client objectives, current asset
allocation and availability of funds using price averaging, proration and consistently non-arbitrary methods of
allocation.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
A. Frequency of Reviews
Securities in Client accounts are monitored on a regular and continuous basis by Taylor Jobe (Managing Member
and Chief Compliance Officer). Formal reviews are generally conducted at least annually or more frequently
depending on the needs of the Client. Once the appropriate portfolio has been determined, an Advisory Person
reviews the portfolio periodically and if necessary, rebalance the portfolio based upon the Client’s individual needs,
stated goals and objectives. The nature of these reviews is to learn whether the Client’s accounts are in line with
their investment objectives, appropriately positioned based on market conditions, and investment policies, if
applicable.
B. Causes for Reviews
In addition to the investment monitoring noted in Item 13.A., each Client account shall be reviewed at least
annually. Reviews may be conducted more frequently at the Client’s request. Accounts may be reviewed as a result
of major changes in economic conditions, known changes in the Client’s financial situation, and/or large deposits or
withdrawals in the Client’s account[s]. The Client is encouraged to notify MKT Advisors if changes occur in the
Client’s personal financial situation that might adversely affect the Client’s investment plan. Additional reviews may
be triggered by material market, economic or political events.
C. Review Reports
The Client will receive brokerage statements no less than quarterly from the Custodian. These brokerage
statements are sent directly from the Custodian to the Client. The Client may also establish electronic access to the
Custodian’s website so that the Client may view these reports and their account activity. Client brokerage
statements will include all positions, transactions and fees relating to the Client’s account[s]. MKT Advisors does
not provide additional written reports to Clients, unless asked to do so.
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
A. Compensation Received by MKT Advisors
MKT Advisors may refer Clients to various unaffiliated, non-advisory professionals (e.g. attorneys, accountants, estate
planners) to provide certain financial services necessary to meet the goals of its Clients. Likewise, MKT Advisors may
receive non-compensated referrals of new Clients from various third-parties.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform
MKT Advisors has established an institutional relationship with Schwab through its “Schwab Advisor Services” unit,
a division of Schwab dedicated to serving independent advisory firms like MKT Advisors. As a registered
investment advisor participating on the Schwab Advisor Services platform, MKT Advisors receives access to
software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders investment management services to Clients
that maintain assets at Schwab. Services provided by Schwab Advisor Services benefit the Advisor and many, but
not all services provided by Schwab will benefit Clients. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor endeavors at
all times to put the interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic
benefits from a custodian creates a potential conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor's
recommendation of this custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.
Services that Benefit the Client – Schwab’s institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of
investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of Client’s funds and securities. Through
Schwab, the Advisor may be able to access certain investments and asset classes that the Client would not be able
to obtain directly or through other sources. Further, the Advisor may be able to invest in certain mutual funds and

Phone: (760) 658-8780 | Fax: (916) 459-1792
https://mktadvisorsllc.com
Page 13
other investments without having to adhere to investment minimums that might be required if the Client were to
directly access the investments.
Services that May Indirectly Benefit the Client – Schwab provides participating advisors with access to technology,
research, discounts and other services. In addition, the Advisor receives duplicate statements for Client accounts,
the ability to deduct advisory fees, trading tools, and back-office support services as part of its relationship with
Schwab. These services are intended to assist the Advisor in effectively managing accounts for its Clients, but may
not directly benefit all Clients.
Services that May Only Benefit the Advisor – Schwab also offers other services and support to MKT Advisors that
may not benefit the Client, including: educational conferences and events, financial start-up support, consulting
services and discounts for various service providers. Access to these services creates a financial incentive for the
Advisor to recommend Schwab, which results in a potential conflict of interest. MKT Advisors believes, however,
that the selection of Schwab as Custodian is in the best interests of its Clients.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals
Certain Clients may be referred to the Advisor by either an affiliated or unaffiliated party (herein "Promoter") and
receive, directly or indirectly, compensation for the Client referral. In such instances, the Advisor will compensate
the Promoter a fee in accordance with Rule 206(4)-1 of the Advisers Act and any corresponding state securities
requirements. Any such compensation shall be paid solely from the investment advisory fees earned by the
Advisor, and shall not result in any additional charge to the Client.
Item 15 – Custody
MKT Advisors does not accept or maintain custody of Client accounts, except for the limited circumstances outlined
below:
Deduction of Advisory Fees - To ensure compliance with regulatory requirements associated with the deduction of
advisory fees, all Clients for whom MKT Advisors exercises discretionary authority must hold their assets with a
"qualified custodian." Clients are responsible for engaging a “qualified custodian” to safeguard their funds and
securities and must instruct MKT Advisors to utilize that Custodian for securities transactions on their behalf.
Clients are encouraged to review statements provided by the Custodian and compare to any reports provided by
MKT Advisors to ensure accuracy, as the Custodian does not perform this review.
Money Movement Authorization - For instances where Clients authorize MKT Advisors to move funds between their
accounts, MKT Advisors and the Custodian have implemented safeguards to ensure that all money movement
activities are conducted strictly in accordance with the Client’s documented instructions.
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
MKT Advisors generally has discretion over the selection and amount of securities to be bought or sold in Client
accounts without obtaining prior consent or approval from the Client. However, these purchases or sales may be
subject to specified investment objectives, guidelines, or limitations previously set forth by the Client and agreed to
by MKT Advisors. Discretionary authority will only be authorized upon full disclosure to the Client. The granting of
such authority will be evidenced by the Client's execution of an investment advisory agreement containing all
applicable limitations to such authority. All discretionary trades made by MKT Advisors will be in accordance with
each Client's investment objectives and goals.
As discussed above, for certain Clients, MKT Advisors may recommend that Clients utilize one or more
Independent Managers for all or a portion of a Client’s investment portfolio, based on the Client’s needs and
objectives and the strategies offered by the Independent Manager. The strategies will align with the goals and
objectives of the Client and the Independent Manager will have discretionary authority to trade on behalf of the
Clients assets managed by such Independent Manager.

Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
MKT Advisors does not accept proxy-voting responsibility for any Client. Clients will receive proxy statements
directly from the Custodian. If proxies are sent to MKT Advisors, we will forward them on to the Client and ask the
party who sent them to mail them directly to you in the future. Clients may call, write or email us to discuss
questions they may have about particular proxy votes or other solicitations. The Advisor will assist in answering
questions relating to proxies, however, the Client retains the sole responsibility for proxy decisions and voting.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Neither MKT Advisors, nor its management, have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair the
ability of MKT Advisors to meet all obligations to its Clients. Neither MKT Advisors, nor any of its Advisory Persons,
have been subject to a bankruptcy or financial compromise. MKT Advisors is not required to deliver a balance
sheet along with this Disclosure Brochure as the Advisor does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for
services to be performed six months or more in the future.

Servicing our Clients
We may share non-public personal information with non-affiliated third
parties (such as administrators, brokers, custodians, regulators, credit
agencies, other financial institutions) as necessary for us to provide
agreed upon services to you, consistent with applicable law, including but
not limited to: processing transactions; general account maintenance;
responding to regulators or legal investigations; and credit reporting.
Marketing Purposes
MKT Advisors does not disclose, and does not intend to disclose,
personal information with non-affiliated third parties to offer you services.
Certain laws may give us the right to share your personal information with
financial institutions where you are a customer and where MKT Advisors
or the client has a formal agreement with the financial institution. We will
only share information for purposes of servicing your accounts, not
for marketing purposes.

persons who are no longer our Clients.
State-specific Regulations

In response to a California law, to be conservative, we assume accounts with California addresses do not want us to
disclose personal information about you to non-affiliated third parties, except as permitted by California law. We also limit
the sharing of personal information about you with our affiliates to ensure compliance with California privacy laws.
Changes to our Privacy Policy
We will send you a copy of this Policy annually for as long as you maintain an ongoing relationship with us.
Periodically we may revise this Policy and will provide you with a revised Policy if the changes materially alter the
previous Privacy Policy. We will not, however, revise our Privacy Policy to permit the sharing of non-public personal
information other than as described in this notice unless we first notify you and provide you with an opportunity to
prevent the information sharing.

You may ask questions or voice any concerns, as well as obtain a copy of our current Privacy Policy by contacting
