The next step is to help your clients set realistic and specific goals for improving their credit score. Depending on their situation, they may have different priorities and timelines. For example, some may want to boost their score quickly to qualify for a mortgage, while others may want to improve their score gradually to save money on interest. Help them define their desired outcome, such as reaching a certain score range, paying off a certain amount of debt, or improving their credit mix. Then, help them break down their goal into smaller and measurable steps, such as paying off a certain percentage of their balance each month, applying for a secured credit card, or increasing their credit limit.
