We couldn't repost this excellent advice from Beth Jackson, so we took a screenshot instead. As a case in point, we had a recent role with 168 applicants. After screening, we reduced the number to less than 3 who were worth long listing. Most were sifted out because they hadn't read the job advert and had the wrong skill set. If the job advert states that only applicants who have the right to work in the UK will be accepted, this is a non-negotiable. You will only waste our time applying! And we can get a little grumpy when this happens. The 'spray and pray' job search technique doesn't work. Don't just fill out the LinkedIn or other job platform application form. THINK about what the employee is looking for and how you can match that. Most importantly, if you are going to use AI to help you get words down, then only use this as a starting point and then rewrite it in your own language. We will sift through AI-generated copy. It can be spotted a mile off...

If you run your practice too leanly then it is likely that your client service levels will struggle. This then means less client referrals and higher client churn. We are hearing from The Accountants' Growth Club members and those firms that use us regularly that summer is the time when they really notice if their resourcing levels are too low or not robust enough. We are busy recruiting for 11 roles right now, so please get in touch if you need some support.

If I could only pick 1 business development strategy for accounting firm owners it would be this.... Not posting Not cold calling Not networking Not SEO It would be a client service strategy. All day. Every day. After all, how many other professionals or business owners can rely on clients sticking around for years? And having a legal requirement for your services? And being generally really well connected to other like-minded potential clients? Just stop for a moment and think. How much time and effort do you put into winning new clients? If you took that time and effort to: • Ensure you were delivering a great client service on every job • Have KPIs that prompted action around great client service • Formalise what good client service looks like in your processes via your work flow tool • Train your team and get them bought into what great client service looks like? • Do a client portfolio analysis which prompted the right people getting the 'extra love' • Ditch any clients which were no longer right for your firm How many more client referrals would you get through the door? Would it be that magically, 4-8 client referrals every month, which then over 80% convert? And those are figures that The Accountants' Growth Club members tell us they are achieving by working on this strategy. And this is why our growth assessment specifically looks at client service as a mechanism for growth and scaling.

Turnover stuck around £250k? You are not alone. Here's what Paul Donno did to unstick his growth and then triple the size of his business in 5 years. At Accountex, I asked Paul, founder of 1accounts, what he did to move out of being stuck at £250k. His answer? Bring in people to take stuff off you. But invest in them. If you carry on doing everything and don't invest in a strong team beneath you, you will struggle to get your practice over £400k without resorting to doing an acquisition. In fact, as Paul talks about, getting your role and responsibility right is key to unlocking your firm's growth and then ability to scale. Changing your role and responsibility is just 1 of the 11 categories we look at to see if your firm is ready to grow and scale. We've even done a quick 5 min, 22 question assessment with a fully personalised report for you to do for free to see what is stopping your firm from growing and scaling.

Oh. That wasn't meant to happen. What do I mean? The Sunday Evening Blues, where you used to fret about work. Do you remember when you used to be employed? And you got the Sunday evening blues? Perhaps you promised yourself that when you ran your own business, it would be different? No more finishing a weekend and then stressing about the week ahead. But have you found yourself once again dreading Monday morning? 📩 What emails will come in that HAVE to be dealt with? 🔥 What fires do you need to put out because a team member hasn’t done something correctly? 😴 Then just how many hours will you need to work this week to get EVERYTHING done? But at least you don’t have a boss breathing down your neck? Right?? But why is it that your practice is growing but you seem to have less time than when you were smaller and had less of a team. And even worse, you now may struggle to pay yourself. Who wants all this extra stress without the extra reward? ❓ What if you knew how to get back in control and stop the overwhelm and dread? Particularly how to get your team to step up and take the initiative. ➡️ In our FREE webinar on 17th April at 10:00 (UK time) we will be talking about how to go from overwhelm to balance. We’ll even share the secrets of how other busy accountants like you have regained control and now have 8 hours a week to work on their business. Link to register is in the comments. Any relate to this? #StartupToGrownup #scaling #scalingup #accountingandaccountants
