Get More Time

It’s more than working efficiently. 8 unconventional strategies.
Accountants just don’t have enough time. This is a challenge for the profession as a whole, and for sole practitioners and small accounting firms in particular. There just isn’t enough time for everything accountants need to do—whether it’s expanding the practice, acquiring a better clientele, servicing clients more effectively, or simply having a few more leisure hours.

The most fundamental rule of getting more time is that: Time breeds time.

To get more time for yourself, you must first take the time to analyze your practice, to see where you’re spending the most time and to determine what steps you need to take.

Traditionally, saving time is considered synonymous with increasing productivity. But while productivity gains are important for saving time, that’s not the only or even the best way to resolve your dilemma. Looking at this issue from a wholly different perspective will produce spectacular results.

Change your goal from getting more time
to generating more revenue per hour


Simple math will show that essentially this is what you need to do if you want to get more time. What’s more, once you take this viewpoint, many additional avenues for achieving your goals become available.
  1. Let go of your bottom-of-the-barrel clients. Letting your least productive clients go will impact your bottom line only minimally, but it will save you a significant amount of time.

  2. Enhance your client relationships. As a rule, you can generate more revenue per hour from your most satisfied clients

  3. Analyze the services you offer. Probably only a slight change in your mix of services can significantly decrease your workload and increase profitability.

  4. Be open to improving your internal processes. Don’t be afraid to change your outdated processes or implement new methods.

  5. Use the right solutions and technologies. Progressive accountants who use the right solutions and technologies have increased their productivity by as much as 50-80% over accountants who haven’t advanced with the times.

  6. Add value. Tax and accounting services can be easily supplemented by complementary value-added services from which both you and your clients can benefit.

  7. Analyze your fee structure. Most accountants overlook that their fee structure, not just their fee levels, has a significant impact on revenues.

  8. Embrace your potential to do more and do better.
