Building Phase
Focus: Growing & Evaluating
The Building Phase has two sub phases: Growing and Evaluating. This phase is focused on growing your firm to your capacity, identifying your long-term vision, and determining what type of firm you ultimately want to build. We’ll provide specific sales and marketing tactics to accelerate growth, while helping you analyze and improve your service model and meeting structure. At this point you'll also review your practice management strategy, including pricing, KPIs, tech, continuity planning, and more.
Scaling Phase

The Scaling Phase begins when you have reached your individual capacity as a planner and have identified the type of firm you want to build. The three business types that most scaling firms are building are a solo practice, a boutique firm, or an enterprise business. This phase is all about scaling your business and running your firm as efficiently as possible. We will provide resources to help make strategic business decisions, while continuing to refine your sales, marketing, and processes based on your firm’s growth and specific goals.
