2. The 90-Day Clarity Assessment

The 90-Day Clarity Assessment is an inquiry form designed to help Dr. Eckert understand your business situation before any consulting engagement is discussed. Submitting the assessment does not constitute a contract, agreement, guarantee of services, or commitment of any kind by either party.

All submissions are reviewed personally by Dr. Eckert. If there appears to be a strong fit for a consulting engagement, you will be contacted within approximately three business days to discuss next steps. Response times may vary.

3. No Guarantee of Engagement

Completing the 90-Day Clarity Assessment does not guarantee that Eckert Consulting will offer or enter into a consulting engagement with you. Consulting engagements are offered at the sole discretion of Dr. Eckert based on fit, availability, and other factors. No consulting relationship is established until a separate written agreement has been executed by both parties.

4. Accuracy of Information

By submitting the assessment, you represent that all information you provide is accurate, current, and complete to the best of your knowledge. Providing false or misleading information may result in disqualification from consideration and termination of any subsequent engagement without liability to Eckert Consulting.
