Consultation Request Form
A first conversation goes better when you already know the business and what they need. This consultation request form asks for a name, the business, an email, a phone number, the service, a preferred time, and what is going on. The service list is bookkeeping, tax prep, payroll, or other. Edit that list, try it, then put the link where new inquiries start.

What is a consultation request form?
A consultation request form is the note a person sends before you talk. It names them, the business, how to reach them, and which service they want to discuss.
When to use it
- When a new inquiry should answer the same questions.
- When you want bookkeeping, tax prep, payroll, and other requests in one list.
- When the preferred time should be on the row, not buried in an email.
- When you want the story in their words before the call.
What to include
Who is asking
Name, business name, email, and phone.
The service
Bookkeeping, tax prep, payroll, or other.
When to talk
A short list of times of day.
What is going on
A paragraph in their own words.
Why FormSign
Each request becomes a row on your FormSign board, so you can sort by service. The starter letter uses each question's label as a placeholder if you later want a short summary.
This template is a starting point, not legal or tax advice. It asks what the person needs so you can schedule a conversation.
Questions
Which services are on the list?
Bookkeeping, tax prep, payroll, and other. Edit the choices so they match what you actually offer.
Does this form give tax or legal advice?
No. It only collects the request. The conversation happens later, on your usual terms.
Can I add more times of day?
Yes. Edit the dropdown, or replace it with the times your team actually uses.
What if they are not sure which service they need?
They can choose Other and explain it in what's going on.
Do I need an account to try it?
No. Open the template, edit the services and test it. You'll create an account when you want to save it and send it.
