CLEAN UP - JR | Financial Cents Templates

About this template

I recommend using this template in conjunction with the Lead Call & Diagnostic Review template I shared. We use this template while performing a Diagnostic Review for a client to create our checklist for the actual cleanup. This way if a client accepts your clean-up proposal, you have already prepped the Cleanup project and can efficiently perform or assign each task.
