This is how I handle mine as well. If you are skilled in communication and how to redirect clients to stay on topic the outcome is better for both of you. I try not to chit chat too much, quick hello’s and I always start with “let’s dig into our consultation shall we” I also offer a 5 minute “warning” and then say " ok lets get into our wrap up and go over what I heard from you…" I follow up my consultations with an email no later than 15minutes after we hang up summarizing the tasks and offering my price quote. I like offering the rpice quote that way, it shows you were listening and followed up quickly.
hope this helps too!
