How Accounting Firms Lose New Clients to Firms That Respond Faster
Tax season, business formation, audit support, when someone needs an accountant, they typically call a few firms and go with whoever they reach first and feel most comfortable with. Being unreachable is being out of the running. We work with professional service businesses nationwide from our base in Irvine. Accounting firms, especially smaller practices, often have limited front desk coverage, the accountants are doing the work and the phone is an afterthought until it becomes a problem.
The Tax Season Crunch
Tax season is when accounting firms need to be most reachable and are least available. Everyone is heads-down on returns, the phone rings constantly, and new potential clients calling in February or March are exactly the clients you want. Missing those calls means they file with someone else this year, and every year after.
