Speaker: Jeanne Kelly, President and Founder, The Kelly Group

Session Description: I am not sure exactly what state your credit is in. Some of you may have outstanding credit. Or you may have messed up your credit and you want to know how to get back on track. Perhaps your credit lies somewhere in between. Whichever way, I am glad to share with you ways to improve your FICO score. All the important credit information you will receive is aimed at one thing: raising your FICO score. In fact, I once had bad credit. I have put more than 10 years of my knowledge into this seminar. My goal is to help as many people as possible raise their FICO scores……PERIOD!!


 A big part of achieving a higher FICO score is to understand it. I will take you step by step to get the most out of your FICO credit scores. I am here to help you understand the credit “game”.  I will be coaching you through the process and, just like any game, I will explain the rules. This way, the more you know and practice, the higher your score can be. Each Step is designed to try to get the most points for that step and in the end you should be trying to get the most points for your credit scores. 

After you have been coached by Jeanne Kelly, you can make credit decisions with the correct credit knowledge so you are not damaging your FICO scores.

Speaker Bio: Twelve years ago, Jeanne Kelly went from being a new mom in her twenties living in a new house, to a divorced, single mother living in a tiny cottage on her parent’s farm. In picking up the pieces of her life Jeanne's first priority was to create financial independence. Her goal was to get her own credit, buy her own car and eventually buy a house.

That quest for financial freedom was quickly dampened by the realization that she had bad credit. The most upsetting thing to her was that she had no idea that her credit was this bad and how it happened. All the goals she had set out for herself felt like pipe dreams.

In search of a job to make ends meet and through a series of circumstances it became a natural transition for her to get a job as a subcontractor for a credit repair company. This experience opened her eyes to what was possible. Jeanne worked hard and researched the credit industry and found out that FICO scoring is the cornerstone to financial freedom. She repaired her own credit reports, increased her FICO score and began her new life (self-directed and in financial control). Thus, The Kelly Group was born, and has since gone on to become one of the most legitimate and successful credit consulting companies in the northeast.

Jeanne and her Kelly Group provide credit counseling to individuals, businesses and groups. Understanding that maintaining a strong credit report is a lifelong process, they also coach people on managing/monitoring their credit profile. Most recently Jeanne has been heard as a guest on the radio in which the current credit crisis was the topic. She has also been quoted in several newspapers, magazines and online financial sites such as CNN, Money, and the NY Times.
