Bookkeepers Forum

Achieving best practice through marginal gains – Where do we look for best practice when it comes to business or professional service firms? Industry benchmarks are good as are comparisons to other professional groups (bookkeepers can look to accounting firms or even law firms). But to get to the ultimate in best practice, think sport, in particular the experience of the English cycling team and the London Olympics. Far from being a second rate team the English cycle team were amongst the world’s best, but Olympic Games always produce shocks (a bit like macroeconomic shocks). England’s coach presented the team with a herculean task: improve your performance by 1percent. That’s what it takes to go beyond one’s own expectations: always set goals that you can achieve….and then go the extra 1 percent, By the way, the English team smashed the all the gold medal tallies.

  • Today’s Enterprising Professional What does an enterprising bookkeeping and accounting professional look like today? Busy? Multitasking? Yes. But more important is that they are customer-focused. Intuitively we all know what this means; at a more pragmatic level it means asking yourself some tough questions. 
  • The Art of Winning Customers As any business owner can tell you, acquiring new customers is the driving force behind successfully growing a business. The same applies to financial services firms. But with the right skills and the resources it does not have to be a bridge too far.
  • Work & Travel: Take care of business no matter where you are We always hear stories of bookkeepers and accountants who are able to leave the country for months at a time, while maintaining their workload, and working with clients as if they are still in the office. Their peers and colleagues can never grasp the idea of travelling and working, and are always a little skeptical, but more so, really jealous.
  • Bookkeepers: How can you sell your time? When was the last time a business owner asked you: “Can I buy your time?” Bookkeeping clients may pay for your time, indeed they may ask what your time is worth, but what they really want is to know their books are up to date and, increasingly, need value added services.
