How will this process work?
First, we will have a conversation, so we will both understand what needs you may have. Secondly, we will email some MS Excel spreadsheet forms for you to fill out and email back. Thirdly, we will review your forms and set up a face-to-face or phone meeting to go over the forms together – that might last a couple of hours. Lastly, suggestions will be made during that meeting to help you adjust your finances to make your money work for you. We can schedule a 30 minute follow-up phone meeting for about a month later to make sure you are on track to financial freedom. Additional meetings can be provided, if needed.
