Legacy Interview "Economy OPTION"


I have had potential clients ask if I would consider offering a lighter, and less expensive, package due to funding restraints, fixed incomes, etc.  I've also had "adult children" tell me that they were perplexed with the "fortunate problem" of having both parents or a combination of parents and step-parents still living.  How, and who, do you choose to interview at a cost of $750 each?  Lastly, some folks have told me that it would be a struggle to get two hours from a meek, physically challenged or "tight-lipped" parent with little to say.


Taking these concerns into account, I have devised a Legacy Interview Economy Option package. The  high-quality  interview and final product will remain the same, however this avenue provides two hours of interview as an alternative to the four-hour HSP Basic Legacy Interview Package. Other differences include scaling down the pre-production of a detailed pre-interview and customized outline and questions and replacing with a generalized format. Here is a rundown to compare with the basic package.
