Only < 40% of accounting/bookkeeping firms are using technology in their workflows. If you are one of the 60%, here’s an example of an accounting workflow you can get started with: 📝 Professional Proposals You don’t need a team of highly experienced designers to make your proposals look polished. Use a proposal software like Cone to create impressive proposals. 💲 Pricing You don't have to come up with pricing every time. Automate your pricing process to save time and increase profitability. 🧾 Invoicing You don't have to spend your valuable time on manually creating invoices. 💳 Payments No more chasing clients for payment information and collecting payments. This workflow is the first and one of the most important workflows for a successful client engagement. PS: At Cone (YC S22), we partner with accounting and bookkeeping firms to help them achieve a seamless proposal to payment workflow.

Out-of-scope work = Free work That’s not how it should be. This hit home for me recently during a conversation with an accountant. Digging deeper, I discovered two big reasons why scope creep happens: 1. Fear of losing the client. 2. Insufficient scoping that wasn’t factored into the price. When I demonstrated how Cone (YC S22) Proposal and Billing product can help, her relief was evident. I showed her how it allows for detailed pricing factors (such as number of transactions, reconciliation frequency or clean-up efforts, e.g., for a bookkeeping service) which can be discussed upfront in discovery calls and priced accordingly. This clarity: Defines the work included for the price. Facilitates easy conversation for price increases for any scope changes. For accounting and bookkeeping firms looking to avoid scope creep: -> Invest time in getting pricing right. Consider products like Cone, which has an in-built pricing engine and proposal capabilities. -> Maintain transparent communication. -> Clearly outline scope and pricing in proposals or engagement letters. NO more "free" work!

How often do you review your app stack? I have seen some recently great posts from Lara Manton MICB and Johann Goree showcasing their app stack and it got me thinking....do we actually take enough time out to make sure our software is doing what we want it to do? Do you regularly review yours? I have recently been reviewing mine, and really excited to be adding the following to my app stack : Cone (YC S22) - This is a proposal system and much more. It will allow me to bespoke my proposals for all future prospective bookkeeping clients along with enabling me to reprice existing clients. And great to set up! Jenesys AI - As Nicolai Thomson says, this will only enhance my bookkeeper superhero powers! I tend to agree! This software has blown my mind! I can not wait to introduce Jack AI into my business. Which software are you really looking forward to introducing to your business? Why not take a look at the two I've highlighted? #bemoremaverick #bookkeeper #solepractitioner #superhero #techchoices

5 Signs It might be time to change your Proposal Software: 1️⃣ Feature updates are not frequent: Regular updates are critical to keep up with the changing needs in today's fast-paced technology landscape. 2️⃣ Support is slow or unresponsive: Fast and friendly customer support is as important as software, if not more. It’s important to have responsive support. 3️⃣ Interface is complex to understand: Confusing menus and buttons can slow your proposal process. Your software should be intuitive and easy to use. 4️⃣ Lack of integration with core workflows: Your software should seamlessly integrate with your accounting software and payment gateways, keeping you in your natural flow of work. 5️⃣ You're not seeing the ROI: If it feels like you’re spending more on your software than the benefits it provides or find it expensive, it might be time to consider the alternatives.
