basically, it represents a mindset you must develop before you ever speak to a prospective new client. i developed the principle of winning your first client in response to a common concern often raised by partners of accounting firms \u2013 one that holds them back from going after new business. it\u2019s the belief that they don\u2019t really have anything to offer above and beyond what an organization is receiving from its current accountant.<\/p>\n

if you are not convinced of your value to prospective clients, why should they believe it?
