Client Meeting Prep Card + Debrief
Ten minutes before. Five minutes after. Every client meeting.
Walk into every meeting with a plan to create an experience, not just deliver information, and walk out knowing exactly what made it work.
Most professionals prepare by reviewing the file. That gets you ready to present. It doesn't get you ready to connect. And once the meeting ends, the details that made it personal fade before the next conversation.
The Client Meeting Prep Card + Debrief fixes both ends. Side 1 walks you through five decisions that take about ten minutes. Side 2 captures what you heard in five minutes, so your next conversation feels like a continuation instead of a restart.
The leak isn't in the market. It's in the conversation.
What You'll Get
- Side 1: The Prep Card. Five decisions before every meeting: the emotional outcome, the meeting goal, the voice you'll lead with, your story-unlocking question, and the moment you'll create
- Ready-to-lead prompts for the next step you'll guide toward, two personal details to open with, and one question for each person in a household
- Side 2: The Post-Meeting Debrief. Capture their story in their words, the emotion you picked up on, and the personal details to bring back next time
- The Experience Scorecard, five honest questions that show you what worked and what to change
- Print-ready and double-sided, so it fits in any client file
Why This Works

- Remember what they told you, in their words, so clients feel known every time
- Follow through within 24 hours, with a recap, next steps, and a date for the next conversation
- Get better every meeting, with a scorecard that shows exactly where to improve
