The Needs Assessment you conduct at
your first meeting with a new client sets the tone for your entire
working relationship. That’s why it’s absolutely crucial to provide
your best service and advice in that initial consultation. When you
dedicate 2-3 hours to understanding your client’s real organizing
challenges, you both win. Your client knows what s/he wants and sees
clearly how to get the desired results. And you get to offer your
best, most focused advice without being distracted by the hands–on
work of organizing. Not only that, you’ll be able to charge more
because the assessment lets you demonstrate the incredible value your
expertise brings!
Now you can learn to do more
effective initial consultations at Kathy Waddill’s training
and certification of her tried–and–true method for conducting Needs
Assessments. Kathy is known nationwide for her unique
Eyes of a Stranger Method™.
She’s taught its basic principles
to large audiences at six of the last ten NAPO National
Conferences. Because of the overwhelmingly enthusiastic response,
NAPO now lists Needs Assessments as part of the core curriculum for
professional organizers.
Don’t miss this chance to
increase your income, deepen the level of service you provide to
your clients, and learn the trade secrets of a master organizer!
