Changing your Accountant is Easier than you think. We do all the work!
Is It Time To Change Your Accountant? Questions to ask:
Accessibility
Is your accountant easily accessible to you?
Do you have to wait more than a day for a response or are your calls/emails returned the same day?
Are your accountants available to meet as often as required?
Informed/Expertise
Are you fully confident in your accountant? Can they deal with any issue you have in an informed/expert manner?
Are they knowledgeable about new regulations and up to date on all business areas?
After asking for advice, do you feel that the information you get, not that helpful in resolving the issue you have?
Customer Service
Do you feel sometimes that the advice is more beneficial to your accountants needs than in solving your issue?
Do you feel sometimes that you are left more confused after asking for advice, than before, or are your accountants very clear and precise in communicating the answer in a way you can understand?
Do you feel like you are an important client to your accountant/business advisor?
Approach: Proactive/Reliable
Do you feel your accountant is on your side rather than the side of the revenue or other 3rd party when issues crop up?
Is the advice you get proactive and strategic for your business or is it just answering the specific questions you ask?
Is your accountant passionate about your business too?
Would you classify your accountant as your business advisor or just an accountant?
Is your accountant creative, innovative and willing to weigh the risks and rewards of decisions that may or may not result in a tax liability, minimising your tax liabilities and giving recommendations but at the same time making you fully aware of your risks?
If an issue arises based on a recommendation by your accountant, is your accountant always well-versed in the position you’ve taken and ready to provide a solid rationale, ready to stand by you? (If not, they are not a partner, but a tax return service).
Value for money
Do you feel like you are getting a really good service for the fees you are paying?
