Organizing a plan, obtaining consent, and visualizing the end result are all part of which service essential?

• A. Connect
• B. Consult
• C. Consultation
• D. Aftercare

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is the consult step. This part of the service essentials is where you work with the client to plan the approach, secure their agreement to proceed, and share a clear vision of the finished result. Organizing a plan means outlining what will be done and in what sequence. Obtaining consent ensures you have the client’s approval before starting. Visualizing the end result helps align expectations so you both agree on what success looks like before any work begins. This active, collaborative discussion sets the foundation for a successful service. The other options describe different aspects of client interaction or post-service guidance, but the planning, consent, and outcome visualization fit squarely in the consult phase.
