bissett bullet: think results. not services

today’s bissett bullet: “productivity is key for most business owners.”

by martin bissett

if what we do for a client gives them time to work on their businesses, then what we charge is paid back by the opportunities they can create, the sales they can make and the profit they can generate as a result. the value we possess, therefore, is talking to them about the outcomes they can create in the time we save them, rather than the services we carry out on their behalf. sound familiar? good.

today’s to-do:

read your last proposal. did you talk about services or outcomes? rewrite any areas in which you talk about services and reframe them to reflect the outcomes they might create. keep this as a template for your next proposal.

artificial intelligence is a game-changing technology. its ability to take on tedious processes allows accountants to focus on higher-value work. a prime example is bank feeds in applications like quickbooks, xero, and other accounting platforms.

bank feeds already streamline workflows by pulling transaction data directly into accounting systems, but ai takes it further. it can automatically match transactions to existing entries, intelligently categorize expenses, and continuously improve its accuracy based on user input and patterns from other businesses.

outlook & analysis

challenges for the accounting profession: private equity, offshoring, training new hires

new tech will force firms to examine value pricing if they haven’t already.

by gale crosley
the rosenberg national survey of cpa firm statistics

private equity interest in the profession will continue. new pe organizations are dotting the landscape, showing interest in firms from the top to the near bottom of the market. family offices and esop investment bankers/consultants are appearing. in the future, firms will have multiple alternative sources of equity capital.

editor’s note: every year, the 2024 rosenberg national survey of cpa firm statistics asks the profession’s top consultants two sets of questions:

- how do you think the next 12 months will unfold? trends? predictions? other thoughts?
- how would you assess the last 12 months? trends? observations? struggles?

private equities that have already invested are starting to more fully understand the vast operational differences between corporate america and cpa firms. this will put pressure on pe-backed firms to perform in more sophisticated ways. on the revenue growth side, corporate-world staples such as effective firmwide pipeline processes, professional sales organizations and a repeatable innovation (product management) process will start cropping up.
