Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We'll have a quick discussion online about the customer's goals, and if we can help, we'll spend some time in-person discussing budget, priorities and opportunities. Then if we can help, we'll move forward with a set-price contract to ensure the customer doesn't have to worry about surprise invoices or overcharges.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Bachelor's of Science in Journalism, Northwestern University
MBA in Real Estate Finance, Southern Methodist University
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
Pricing is determined on a job-by-job basis.
How did you get started in this business?
A medical emergency gave me a "what if" moment — if I survived, what should I do with my life. When the medical emergency passed, I decided that helping people build their businesses was a great way to give back.
What types of customers have you worked with?
All kind of small- and medium-sized businesses. We're one ourselves, so we understand the pressures and challenges and opportunities of running your own business.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Ask a lot of questions, make sure you know exactly how you'll be charged and for what, and then go with your gut — sometimes you just don't like or trust a person for no particular reason. In business, that's enough to find an alternative, even if you're walking away from the seemingly best deal or lowest price.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
What do I really want to accomplish with the project, and how committed am I to seeing it through?
