Sometimes life gets in the way...

Last June everything was in place. The business plan was written, the website in place, the business cards and brochures printed, pens ready to hand out, and a list of people on my schedule as I focused on introducing myself and this new business.

That night, my husband had a stroke. My priorities suddenly changed. As I look back...I needed a daily money manager because the piles of mail quickly became overwhelming as I concentrated on other important tasks such as helping him function and focusing on keeping his business on track. Why did this happen now? Just when I was ready to go?

I have always given credit for the business model of Team Money Management LLC to God. It was His idea that I begin to pursue a college degree at age 60. I truly believe He directed me to the AADMM website where I discovered a name for what I had done for my mother-in-law for years - daily money management. He taught me a valuable lesson these past months, and my focus has changed to bringing together the "Team" and the clients rather than taking on the burden of several clients myself. The true value of this business model is the "Team" working together to provide support for our clients while protecting them from fraud.

One huge accomplishment for me last year was passing the exam for Professional Daily Money Manager certification (PDMM®) by AADMM (American Association of Daily Money Managers) in November. Keith was able to get around on his own by then, so I was able to attend the AADMM National Convention in Arizona. This was a refreshing and enlightening experience for me to learn from those who have been offering these services professionally for many years. The experience also reinforced the message that the "Team" concept is integral to providing our clients with the best possible alternative.

And so here I am, once again, at "go"! My intention is to do something each week day to get the message out. Today, I wrote a blog and set up the business Facebook page. And now to go meet that list of people....
