Course Description

Are you just about to start or re-start your accounting business? Do you need more clients in your accounting practice? Now is the perfect time of year, right before tax season, to take the big leap and get started on your brand new accounting business. Lots of clients switch firms in January, numerous people start their business at the first of the year, and everyone has taxes on the brain and needs their books caught up during busy season.

Even though this is the best time of year for client momentum, your first year in business is always fraught with risk. It just makes sense to learn everything you can about how to avoid costly mistakes so that your business gets a great start and the income starts flowing right away.

Learning Objectives

  • 3 things you need to do before you start your business so you can avoid big mistakes and lost clients down the road

  • 1 activity to avoid doing your first year (that most people do out of insecurity and it slows them down)

  • 3 things you need to put in place before you get your first client so that you’ll look extra professional compared to your competitors

  • 1 place to find out more about how to increase your success and reduce your mistakes in your first year of business
