  • Respond to prospective client inquiries within 24 hours of inquiry. Respond to all subsequent emails and team emails within 48 hours (or earlier if requested or as appropriate).

  • Show up to all calls and meetings on time and send follow-up materials when promised.

  • When leading virtual calls, have a strong internet connection, quiet space, presentable appearance and distraction/clutter-free background.

  • Prepare thoroughly for events by researching attendees and client history, ensuring strong internet connections and professional virtual or in-person setups.
