They have great insights into the business needs of professional offices including insurance, chiropractic and attorney offices, among others. Statewide and regional advertising has been eliminated in favor of client referral appreciation and strategies that include Angie’s List, Groupon and Google Ads.

A lesson in DELEGATION, Krissy allows Rick more time to work in the field assessing client needs. Her keys to success are to treat everyone with equal importance and to be her authentic self. Rick’s keys to success is delegating so that he can be the touch point for his clients and never treating the question from a client as a “stupid question”.
