In some recent Financial Road Map Interviews™, my friends have been joking around with their spouses and it's made us go longer than an hour but it seems like they're enjoying themselves. How would you handle this, if at all?

If you are doing this with friends you must be in practice mode. I wouldn’t worry about it.

b I am a CPA and I am beginning to use the Financial Road Map® to bring more of our tax clients on as financial planning Why am I so hesitant to make calls to my existing clients? I know most of my tax clients have Financial Advisors and I am always worried that they think I am just trying to sell them something. What's wrong with me?
b I have done my first few Financial Road Maps® and 2 people were adamant against recording the meeting. Should I press on without recording or politely disengage with this client. Any suggestions on how to address these concerns beyond the script?
b I want to keep accurate numbers and had a question about just what qualifies as Ideal Client Acquisition Time. I'm involved in Self Referrals. If I am talking to someone and during the conversation, I realize that they don't have the resources to become an Ideal Client, would it qualify for Ideal Client Acquisition time if I would then offer to send the book, potential Financial Road Map®, etc. I'm struggling with not counting that as Ideal Client Acquisition time vs. counting it because "everyone deserves a Financial Road Map®". Your thoughts, please.
b I have been following the script with Commitment to Hire Conversation ™ and detailing them exactly what they will get. We had a Follow-Up Meeting the other day with a client where we do a Risk Profile (legal requirement) and they were asking further questions around money management etc. Although they knew they were getting a plan they didn’t realize we handled everything (i.e. professional money management) and they said if they realized we did so much they would have been far keener to go ahead. Should we also have a list of client deliverables to show them?
b How do I politely control a client who talks too much or goes off on tangents?
