Setting the First Finance Objective

Dear Accountant,

Review Step 20 Taking Business Advisory into Clients  

In my last post (but one) I suggested that you propose to your client that they start their journey to raising the value of their business by adopting a Finance Plan as they (usually) have no financial foundation for investing safely in fresh business initiatives.  

Show them the Financial Plan template (which you will have prepared) selecting the Budgeting and Forecasting Objective. Tell them that’s where, as their responsible accountant you would advise them to begin. Explain that each plan is backed by at least 12 strategies and 200 Action Plans for immediate implementation.   

My next post will look at how to select the best Method to start implementing the Financial Plan.  

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.
