For accountancy practices
You already have the relationship and the trust. What you probably do not have is a management accountant sitting idle, waiting for enough advisory work to justify the salary.
A good management accountant costs real money and is hard to keep busy in a practice your size. So the work either gets squeezed in around compliance season, or it gets declined, or the client eventually goes looking and finds somebody who does it properly.
None of those is a good outcome. The third one is the expensive one, because they do not just take the advisory work.
You keep the client, the relationship and the fee. We are the bit you would otherwise have to recruit.
The arrangement, in one line
Delivered white label behind your practice, or badged jointly if you would rather your client knew who is doing the work. Both arrangements exist and both work.
We do not approach your clients, we do not sell them anything else, and it is in the agreement rather than in an assurance over coffee.
You set the client price. We invoice you. The client stays yours in every sense that matters, including if this arrangement ever ends.
No minimum commitment and no exclusivity. Try it on the client who has been asking, see whether the work is good, then decide.
Chartered Management Accountants regulated directly by CIMA and AML supervised. Every output reviewed and signed by a qualified accountant, so your name is safe on it.
Owner managed firms that sell time and expertise. Agencies and consultancies, surveyors, recruiters, solicitors. Different sectors, the same question underneath: which work actually pays, and what should we do about it.
Your clients. Your relationship. Your fee. We are just the bit behind the door.
