question:<\/strong> thanks for the training memo. although i requested your memo because i know i need help with improving efficiency and the like with my practice, many of your thoughts and ideas i have already thought of but simply did not implement them.<\/p>\n

more: <\/b><\/strong>two options for collecting past due fees<\/a> | you can\u2019t win with lowballing<\/a> | yes, you have to share work papers<\/a> | should you merge? here\u2019s how to chart your path<\/a> | hold staff accountable if you want them to listen to you<\/a> | how to raise your rates<\/a> | higher fees to start: ten ways to make your tax season better<\/a> | three ways to start an accounting practice<\/a> | free consultation? not always<\/a> | referral fee? forget it<\/a>
\n\"goprocpa.com\"exclusively for pro members. <\/span><\/strong>log in here<\/a> or 2022世界杯足球排名 today<\/a>.<\/span><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

response:<\/strong> i think you hit part of the nail on the head in what you wrote \u2013 you\u2019ve had many of the ideas and \u201csimply did not implement them.\u201d
\n
\nyou need to make changes or things stay the same. <\/span>my training methods, and everything else i write and speak about, evolved from my experiences in starting and running two practices \u2013 one grew from a two-partner start to 50 people with only a third partner being added over 14 years and with the wall street journal writing about our success. the other one, with peter weitsen and frank boutillette, was a profitable small practice over 17 years that had 11 people working for us when we merged with withum \u2013 and where every one of our staff started with us and who we trained completely.<\/p>\n

my methods work and work well. the difficulty with them being adopted, or even tried, is that they don\u2019t seem logical to many people, don\u2019t solve immediate problems and seem like we are running a school, so many people do not try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
