To be perfectly honest, when we decided to start meeting with our Financial Zen Members MONTLHY instead of quarterly, I was a little scared.
Our quarterly appointments were intense (in a good way), but totally exhausting.
So much so that I capped our daily availability to only two per day and a total of 6 per week.
Transitioning to monthly meetings would mean we would do 5 per day and 20 per week. Eek!
What the heck was I thinking?!?!
I was thinking more frequent 1:1 interaction would lead to:
– Improved focus
– Faster turnaround
– Better decision making
– More results
Following Jim Collins advice to “fire bullets before cannonballs,” I surveyed our members during their Q2 appointments.
The feedback was through the roof. I knew I was on to something.
So in May we started transitioning everyone into their monthly time slots.
As our monthly calendar started to fill up, I started to get nervous.
Did I bite off more than I could chew?
But this week is the first week we’ve had a full schedule and I gotta say… it’s actually kind of invigorating.
We’re getting more done than ever and our members are absolutely LOVING IT!
(There’s also something about running at nearly full capacity that’s very fulfilling.)
I think the lesson is one that I’ve learned before in different areas…
Eating 7 apples on Saturday is not the same as eating an apple a day.
Or in our terms…
Meeting for 90 minutes every 90 days is not the same as meeting for 25 minutes once a month!
P.S. We’ve got room for about 10 more members at our current capacity which we’ll fill before the end of Q3. So if you’ve ever thought about working with us, NOW is the time to schedule a Discovery Call!
