Let’s face it. Inventory clients can be intimidating, especially if they are just starting out, or have been using outdated systems for too long. Many brilliant accountants may find themselves turning down product-based or inventory small business clients, including sole-proprietors, simply because they don’t have the experience or resources to guide these businesses toward success.
But taking on inventory-based small businesses can help you grow your practice and become a stronger advocate and advisor for a broader market. For this reason alone, accountants should never shy away from a challenge.
This white paper from AccountingSuite, "The CPA's Checklist For Growing Your Practice With Inventory-Based Clients", gives you a checklist and several points to consider when taking on these types of clients.
