Consultants - What's in it for You?



While The Accounting Library seems to be oriented towards end-users, fully 60% of our subscribers are CPAs and accounting software consultants. As I am sure you are quite aware, one of the most significant problems facing all CPAs and consultants is non-billable hours. This is particularly true when working with smaller clients with limited budgets for consulting services as well as software. You have to minimize the amount of time you spend on research, and even watch very closely the amount of time you spend with your clients trying to help them understand the process of selecting accounting software. The Accounting Library has been structured so that our consulting subscribers can maximize their billable hours while giving their clients access to far more products than possible if you didn't use such a tool.

We have even provided you a demo of the analysis program so that you can load it on your client's computer and let them create their own needs definition without your having to be present filling our manual forms. The client cannot do anything other than create the needs definition file for this is only a demo with no real products in the database. However, you can export the needs definition file and then import into your live version of the analysis program and subsequently carry our your analysis. That's what you call optimizing your time and that of your clients.

Use the analysis program to offer your clients access to all of the major products on the market. Use the manuals as your software selection and implementation methodology. That's what they are there for. You can even create manuals under your own logo by utilizing the Word files on the program CD. We encourage this.

The Accounting Library is an ideal supporting tool for all CPAs and consultants. We have structured it so that you can accomplish several critical tasks:

• Use the analysis program and manuals as your guide to establish a powerful consulting practice far more quickly than if you had to organize your practice from scratch.
  
• Offer your clients access to far more products than you could using any other tool.
  
• Provide your clients workbooks that help them understand this process more effectively while making you look like a large national or international consulting firm.
  
• Utilize a methodology that helps your clients improve not just their accounting processes but their entire organization.
  
• Use client workbooks and the demo analysis program to reduce dramatically, if not eliminate, non-billable hours.
