Selecting the Implementation Method
Dear Accountant,
Step 23 Taking Business Advisory into Clients
In my last post I explained how to choose the best Action Plan to get started on implementing your client’s Finance Plan (within the Budgeting and Forecasting Method).
You now need to agree and cost the implementation method you’ll be using. And here are the 6, ranging from ‘hands off’ to ‘hands on’.
Show these to your client explaining that the final selection will be the optimum mix of expertise, time, and cost for both of you. Discuss all 3 and be ready for the killer question, “how much?”.
So, my next post will look more closely at how to deal with that.
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.
