What is a Power Session?

Welcome to Power Sessions—focused, in-depth meetings tailored to tackle your unique financial challenges and help you reach new milestones.

Bring your specific financial issues to the table, and Shannon will carefully analyze your numbers to create a clear, actionable roadmap for achieving your goals. By the end of your Power Session, you'll walk away with a comprehensive financial snapshot and a set of data-driven steps to guide you toward success.

We go beyond the number to give you the INSIGHTS you need to make decisions and answer questions like:

  • When can I hire someone?

  • How much can I pay them?

  • How much am I actually making per client?

  • Should I take on credit or investors?

Instead of stressing over taxes and tracking your receipts, what if you actually had someone in your corner talking about the big picture and helping you INCREASE YOUR BUSINESS'S VALUE?

Let's uncover the blind spots in your business and give you the clarity you need to make confident financial decisions.
