bissett bullet: are you hungry?

today’s bissett bullet: “i tweeted once that while gross recurring fees are a reward for hard work, to an extent, they delete hunger. a superior firm markets its business with hunger regardless.”

by martin bissett

a hungry firm wants to continue growing even though its fees are strong. even though it’s worried about capacity and how it’ll service any more clients. a hungry firm knows the improvement it creates in its clients’ lives. hungry firms are the most successful in their growth efforts.

i’ll ask again – are you hungry?

today’s to-do:

be hungry. do not be satisfied with your gross recurring fees; strive for more. pay attention to your pipeline today. what opportunities are there for you to explore?

both cpas were struck by one glaring omission in the original reporting: the absence of accounting professionals in decision-making roles. “where’s the cfo?” asks shimamoto, founder and managing director of intraprisetechknowlogies, and founder and inspiration architect of the center for accounting transformation. “who looked at the time limits on that covid-era grant money and said, ‘hey, this isn’t going to last’?”

patrick, ceo of verifyiq, and co-founder and educator at tb academy, echoes that frustration: “it’s like budgeting on hopes and dreams instead of facts and forecasts.”
