#91: How do you prepare for a known drop in income?
When you’re a new financial coach, “where do I find clients” is always one of the top questions. Today, Josh and Emily discuss what to do to find early clients.
Top takeaways:
- Put your poker face on! The client probably has lots of emotions…don’t let yours amplify things.
- Ask “why,” “when,” and “how long will it last?”
- Don’t be afraid to tap into an emergency fund–that’s LITERALLY why it’s there.
- Different strategies work better based on whether this is likely to be a short-, medium-, or long-term situation.
- Don’t rush decisions just because you agree with them. Also don’t delay decisions just because you want them to have more savings.
