the idea of reducing your dependence on compliance work may be radical for some accountants and familiar to others.

compliance work is the main source of income for many accountants, but unfortunately, it’s a high volume, low-profit ballgame. in order to be successful, you need to have flawless execution and massive leverage – if anything is out of place or goes awry, you won’t get the results you’re hoping for.

take the nine-point practice checkup

is it time to admit you have a problem?

by matt solomon
the center for enlightened business

i’d like to ask you a question: how satisfied are you with the current state of your business?

many accountants might say their firm is “good” or “doing well.” but in my 13 years of working with accountants on a daily basis, i’ve found that when you dig a little deeper, the truth isn’t quite as “good” as it could be. when i ask them to elaborate, accountants often tell me that they’re not getting paid what they’re worth, their clients don’t value and appreciate them, and they have too many difficult or unpleasant clients on their rosters.

yet those same accountants continue to carry on, day after day, exactly the same way that they have before. this gets to a major problem in the accounting profession: high standards for your work, but low standards for the enjoyment you get out of that work. you may not be satisfied with the state of your business, but you don’t think it’s reasonable to expect better. you’ve accepted that working too hard and being undervalued and underpaid is just part of the deal. even worse, you may not believe a better alternative (in terms of profitability, personal fulfillment and value add for your clients) exists.

three ways to leverage today’s uncertainties for renewed growth

how to embrace disruption to help clients like never before and create the life you’ve always wanted.

i’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but there’s a lot going on in the world right now. from a global pandemic and social injustice to economic uncertainty and political unrest, we’re living in an intense, and, arguably, unparalleled time.

so, what’s this got to do with being an accountant? simply, everything.

as an accountant, you’re sitting in the crosshairs of many of these experiences, navigating new waters with each new day.

while you may have gotten used to it, learned how to navigate your new climate, and perhaps you’ve even embraced the “new normal,” it is not the time to rest on your laurels.

in fact, i strongly suggest the contrary: it’s time to lean in a little more, embrace the discomfit and avoid settling down just yet. read more →
