What was the first negative item you disputed, what letter did you send ? That question

Listen… A lot of people don’t lose leads because they don’t know credit. They lose leads because they don’t follow up. Somebody says: “I need my credit fixed.” “I’m trying to buy a house.” “I get paid Friday.” “Send me the report link.” “I want to enroll next week.” “I need help with my clients.” “I’m ready, just let me check something.” Then what happens? They disappear. And most people just sit there like: “Well, they know where to find me.” Nah. That’s how you donate conversations to the internet. Follow-up is not begging. Follow-up is leadership. It’s reminding the lead what they said they wanted, where they got stuck, and what the next step is. Example: A weak follow-up says: “Hey, just checking in.” A stronger follow-up says: “Hey, circling back. You told me your goal was getting apartment-ready by December, and the report link was the next step so I could review all 3 bureaus and tell you what needs to be attacked first. Did you get a chance to pull it, or did the site give you any issues?” See the difference? One is random. One is attached to the goal. That’s the game. Another one: A lead says they want to enroll but payday is Friday. Weak follow-up: “Are you still interested?” Strong follow-up: “Hey, just doubling back. You said Friday was payday, so I wanted to check if you’re ready to get enrolled and start the first round. Once payment is received, I’ll send the receipt, secure upload link, and get your ID/proof of address collected so we can officially start building.” That’s not pressure. That’s structure. That’s professionalism. That’s how you stop letting people fall through the cracks. The full Follow-Up Playbook course is dropping soon inside the classroom 📚💪🏾 I’m going to break down: Lead follow-up Report link follow-up Payment follow-up Enrollment follow-up No-response follow-up Mentee follow-up Client update follow-up Round 2 follow-up Skool invite follow-up Backend/client pipeline follow-up Because the truth is simple:

One thing I’m noticing more and more is people asking: “How much do you charge for credit repair?” But the real answer is: “I need to see the file first.” Because every credit file is different. One person may only need one strong round. Another person may have: • collections • charge-offs • recent late payments • high utilization • personal information issues • thin file problems • accounts that should be left alone• accounts that need creditor or collection agency disputes too If you quote blindly, you can easily undercharge a difficult file or overcharge someone who only needs light cleanup. That’s why I teach file review first. Before price. Before promises. Before random dispute letters. A real review should tell you: • what’s hurting the score the most • what should be attacked first • what should be left alone • what the timeline may look like • what rebuild steps need to happen during repair • and whether full service even makes sense This is also how you build more trust with leads. Instead of looking like you’re just trying to collect payment, you show them that you actually want to understand their situation before recommending anything. That separates you from people just selling credit repair. The goal is not to quote fast. The goal is to diagnose correctly. Because once you understand the file, the price presentation becomes easier. Homework: The next time someone asks, “How much do you charge?” don’t rush to price. Respond with: “My pricing depends on what’s actually on your credit report. I like to review the full 3-bureau report first so I can tell you what’s hurting your score, what I’d attack first, what timeline makes sense, and whether my program is even the right fit.” That one shift can change the whole conversation
