The issue we are highlighting
Reports suggest that profits have decreased by 41% in accounting firms over the last 5 years. This is despite the influx of new technology which was supposed to bring time and efficiency to your practice. Added to that the squeeze on compliance prices and it is clear that many accounting firms must adapt or they may die.
BUT compliance is not dead!
Your clients still need your help to prepare stat accounts and tax returns. They need your help to navigate the ever-changing legislation and government policies to ensure they don’t fall foul of accounting malpractice.
However, businesses need more than just compliance. Now, more than ever. Firm’s must find the right mix between compliance and business advisory in order to achieve the returns they deserve.
Scaling business advisory
Commonly, advisory services are delivered by the partners or senior managers to about 10-20% of the client base. This leaves the remainder of your clients to a compliance only relationship.
But, with compliance prices falling, this can no longer be a sustainable business model.
What if advisory services could be delivered by 100% of your team to 100% of your client base?
What if you could see the firm’s profit potential by scaling these services?
The solution
Clarity provides the platform for you to systemise advisory and deliver it to everyone. It empowers and encourages the whole of your team to do this by breaking down Advisory into 5 levels:
- Awareness
- Accountability
- Insight
- Planning
- Consulting
