How to Work with Allison
1. BOOK A STRATEGY SESSION

Following the strategy session, you will receive a strategic action plan that includes the roadmap for how to best grow your business.

HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM A NORMAL BUSINESS COACH?
Allison understands the risk and reward of stepping out of a 9-5 career to pursue an entrepreneurial path. She made this move herself several years ago when she started her own virtual law firm.
While Allison’s legal background will ensure that you are protecting your business and moving forward with strength, her entrepreneurial spirit and grit will help you make moves to scale. When you work with Allison, you are working on more than mindset shifts. You will have a strategic partner in business to help you grow. No one can do this alone. You deserve a partner who understands and sees the clear path forward.
We Make Step One Really Clear.
When it comes to consulting, CEOs and business owners can’t risk a large time commitment or investment unless they feel confident about the value provided. That’s why Allison starts with a strategy session. This short term engagement allows both parties to ensure that this is the right fit.
