Yes, you can message with any Advisor prior to booking a session. We highly recommend this as it gives both you and the Advisor the opportunity to make sure it’s the right fit.

All sessions are done through a private video conferencing platform within the Adendo website. Both you and the Advisor will have the ability to share your screen, as well as share files.

Once you’ve decided on the best Advisor for your needs you will simply click on “Book me” and request the most convenient time from the Advisors availability. The Advisor will receive your request and have the opportunity to accept or decline the session.

When booking a session, you will be asked to provide a credit card which will be pre-authorized for two times the estimated cost of the call. This is done in case you decide you need more time than originally estimated. Once the call is completed, you will be charged only for the exact number of minutes used.

• Be sure to message the Advisor prior to booking a session to make they are qualified to help and that it’s a good fit
• When booking a session include as much detail as possible on what you would like to accomplish so the Advisor can be prepared

Adendo is 100% committed to customer satisfaction. If at any point during a call you feel you are not getting the level of expertise you expected you can terminate the session immediately and contact an Adendo team member for a full refund.

Each Advisor sets their fees based on what they feel their time is worth and the overall value of the expertise they are providing. Advisors with highly skilled or specialized knowledge will typically charge a little more than those offering more basic, or beginner type training.

All adendo training sessions are done via an online video conferencing platform. That means you and your Advisor will be able to see and hear each other, as well as share your screens through the platform.

In order to do this, you will need an internet connection and a computer, tablet or mobile device equipped with a camera and a microphone. If your computer does not have a microphone you will have the option of using a call-in number. Once you’re connected, you will click on JOIN BY PHONE in the upper left of your screen to access a call-in number and password. If your computer does not have a camera you will still be able to join the session, but the Advisor will not be able to see you.

At the time of your scheduled session, you will log into your adendo account and click on DASHBOARD, then UPCOMING SESSIONS, where you will see the JOIN button. When you click JOIN it will say WAIT TILL ADVISOR STARTS THE SESSION. Once the Advisor starts the session the button will turn blue and say, JOIN ROOM. Click the button and you will be connected. The time does not start until both of you have joined.

Once the session starts you will see the clock in the upper left of the screen along with the END SESSION button. When either the Client or the Advisor clicks the END SESSION button, the session is finished, and you will be billed for the exact number of minutes used.

After choosing the time, it will show you the estimated cost of the session and ask you to enter a credit card.

Adendo will pre-authorize your credit card for up to 2 times the estimated cost of the session, depending on the amount of time you estimate. This is in case you end up needing more time than expected. After the session, you’ll be billed only for the exact number of minutes used, plus the service fee that covers the credit card processing and video conferencing fees.

After clicking the BOOK button, an automated email will go to the Advisor letting him know you have requested a session. The Advisor will Accept or Decline the request, and you will receive aconfirmation email either way.

Once the Advisor accepts the session, you can click on DASHBOARD in the upper right, and then click on UPCOMING SESSIONS, where you’ll see the JOIN button. At the time of the session, this is where you’ll join the session.

Next to the join button there will be three little dots. If you click on the dots, you will be able to share the link and invite up to two additional participants. They will receive the link that they’ll use to join at the time of the session. You will also be able to invite others once the session has begun.
