And that\u2019s not all; they also want to charge for <a href=\"https:\/\/accountants.intuit.com\/taxprocenter\/tag\/advisory-services\/\"title=\"\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"false noopener\">advisory services<\/a>, but can\u2019t figure out how to do it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I solved both problems at my <a href=\"https:\/\/taxedright.com\/\"title=\"\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"false noopener\" target=\"_blank\">firm<\/a> my offering \u201caccounting concierge services.\u201d These are advisory services that justifiably carry higher fees traditional CPA work doesn\u2019t support. Let\u2019s look at the details.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What are accountant concierge services?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve probably heard of concierge services in healthcare with boutique medicine, platinum practice, or membership-based care. Accountant concierge services are similar. Instead of billing hourly, clients pay a simple monthly fee, giving them all-year access on a predictable budget without having to worry about \u00e0 la carte consultation and write-up work fees. Plus, the dreaded conversations about what advisory service work costs become a thing of the past.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, I know what you\u2019re thinking: \u201cMy clients won\u2019t go for that.\u201d But I\u2019m here to tell you: Yes, they will!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Why your clients will love your accountant concierge services<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technology licensing operates the same way; it\u2019s called software-as-a-service pricing\u2014and is really just a subscription to a service. Business owners are used to this. Zoom, <a href=\"https:\/\/quickbooks.intuit.com\/accountants\/products-solutions\/accounting\/quickbooks-online\/\"title=\"\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"false noopener\">QuickBooks<\/a>\u00ae, Google, Salesforce.com, Microsoft 360, and Amazon Cloud Services all charge like this. It\u2019s the way things are done today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you\u2019re not offering software services, your customers are already used to paying for monthly subscription services, so this is just another service using a model that\u2019s extremely common. Five years ago, I got some pushback from my clients, but not anymore. Now it\u2019s standard operating procedure. In fact, this type of predictable pricing is welcomed.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Why I moved to the accountant concierge service model\u2014and why you should, too<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I used to work at a mid-sized firm and hated tracking my hours. Writing down how much time I spent on each client in six-minute increments was a drag. And full disclosure: Sometimes I\u2019d forget to track my time, and at the end of the day I\u2019d have to guess how much time I spent on client work, resulting in underestimation and less money. I still remember one of the firm\u2019s partners chewing me out for finishing a tax return without any hours logged. It was then I decided: When I hung up my shingle, I\u2019d escape the burdens of hourly billing by running my practice on value billing. Accounting concierge services were born.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How to handle and administer these services<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, I offer my monthly concierge services only to business owners in the professional services sector\u2014doctors, dentists, lawyers, marketing agencies, and similar professions. I intentionally keep my practice niche, enabling me to focus entirely on certain sectors, while not having to worry about other areas of expertise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if prospects have inventory, manufacture products, or are in construction, I tell them I\u2019m not the CPA for them. You may think that this is a mistake since it seems I\u2019m leaving money on the table, but if you study marketing or branding, or read Al Ries\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/taxedright.com\/5-books-every-cpa-should-read\/#4_Focus_The_Future_of_Your_Company_Depends_on_it\"title=\"\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"false noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Focus: The Future of Your Company Depends on it<\/a>, you\u2019ll realize this is a fallacy. Focus makes you <em>stronger<\/em>, while diffusion makes you <em>weaker<\/em>.
