The Foundations of Value Pricing: How to get better prices
April 1, 2021 | 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time | Presented by Mark Wickersham | 1.5 CPE Credits | $99
Cloud accounting and technological advances are changing everything…. Your relationship with your client and the way you price. The emergence of cloud technology is the single biggest change the accounting profession has seen in the last 20 years. It changes everything. It changes the way you interact with clients. It changes the services you deliver to clients. And your pricing models must adapt to those changes. Putting it bluntly, those accounting firms that don’t adapt and change will die. How can you continue to price on the hour, when technology reduces the time it takes to do compliance work?
