Why switch Accountants?
What are the signs indicating that it’s time to transition to a different accounting firm?
Embracing change can be challenging since we often prefer to stick with what’s familiar, even if it’s not effective or, in some cases, causes frustration. This applies to various aspects of our lives, including selecting electricity providers and, yes, accountants.
The decision to switch accountants is relatively simple. Businesses opt for a change when their own business undergoes growth or transformation, or when their current accountants have experienced growth and transformation themselves.
When is it time to change your Accountant?
Are you experiencing any of these warning signs with your current accountant if you’re considering making a change?
Absence of cloud technology: Cloud accounting is no longer a futuristic concept; it’s already a part of the present. We are living in the 21st century, and if your accountant is still reliant on spreadsheets and paper instead of offering digital solutions, you’re missing out on opportunities to save time and money using software like Xero, Freeagent, and Quickbooks.
Taking the initiative all by yourself: Whenever there’s news about changes in tax laws through the Budget, you wait for your accountant to inform you about how it may impact you or your business. Unfortunately, that update never arrives.
Financial implications: Select a price and package that aligns with your needs. Upon switching to us, you may discover that you’ve been overpaying taxes, possibly for an extended period of time.
Lack of support for growth: Your current accountant is incapable of assisting your business as it expands and progresses.
Your satisfaction matters greatly to us! Changing accountants can be accomplished with minimal hassle, effort, and disruption to your business.
