Client Trends Assessment by Stealth

Dear Accountant,

Step 2 Taking Business Advisory into Clients

In my last post I explained the skills route by which an accountant travels from ‘expert’ to ‘process’ competence by using consultancy techniques throughout a client project. So, starting with accountancy, generate a financial trends report from the accounting system, make observations about the direction of travel and place it in the client folder ready for your next meeting.

This starts the Modelling stage which will focus on revealing to your client what they are missing and the potential causes. In my next post I’ll continue that by loading the Business Dashboard® program that benchmarks their business potential.  
 
This fourth series of posts reveals the steps needed to provide business advice to clients by planning their business futures and then profitably collaborating in the implementation for close and permanent relationships.
