Comment les comptables peuvent-ils trouver du travail de conseil ?

Without a doubt, specialization in a particular sector provides an accountant with expertise that enables them to offer an advanced level of service. It saves them time and focuses their effort on delving into accounting treatments according to the nature of the industry and its complexities. Of course, this reflects on the added value that you provide to your clients.

In the accounting domain, typical services include bookkeeping, reconciliation, and tax preparation, leading to a competitive pricing approach. However, this focus on cost often sacrifices service quality, devaluing accountants' roles. To break this cycle, niche specialization is crucial. For instance, in non-profit accounting, offering more than routine services—such as providing operational insights through ratios, trend analysis, and process mapping—elevates value. This strategic approach transcends standard services, positioning accountants as indispensable partners, not just service providers.

Um contador que não procura entender as operações de seu cliente, que não busque conhecer as ideias do empresário em relação ao seu negócio e permanece apenas entregando o básico, com certeza será vitima da concorrência de preços de preços de serviços de contabilidade, principalmente com o desenvolvimento tecnológico acelerado para o setor. Se o cliente sentir que você contador se preocupa com o negócio dele, que está atento a oportunidades e riscos, com certeza ele irá buscar inseri-lo cada vez mais no negócio.

Social communication has become simpler and there are many tools in the current era. The use of social communication in professional fields has become familiar and common, so it is very useful to pay attention to professional social networking sites, especially LinkedIn, to build a CV for your professional development and your scientific and technical qualifications.

Se existe alguém dentro de uma organização que consegue visualizar as causas e efeitos de todas as ações adotadas por uma empresa, esse alguém é o contador. Se ele buscar entender as motivações, o ambiente e não se tornar refém da Legislação Fiscal, assim como de regulamentos, se permitindo buscar entender a essência das transações e seus objetivos, com certeza ele será uma fonte importantíssima de consulta, afinal, tão importante quanto as iniciativas (ideias) são as entregas (realizações) e os contadores, para os negócios, participam, quer queiram ou não, em todas as fases.

In the accounting consulting realm, trust is paramount, relying heavily on word-of-mouth referrals rather than effective advertisement. Networking becomes pivotal for accountants seeking consulting work. Unfortunately, many confine their networking efforts within their professional circles. To broaden horizons, active involvement in wider platforms like Trade Associations, Chambers of Commerce, Start-Up Fests, and Economic Policy Dialogues is crucial. Engaging beyond the usual circles, exchanging business cards, and initiating conversations at these events can create opportunities for potential consulting work.

Continuing Professional Education (CPE) or Continuing Professional Development (CPD) should transcend mere membership renewal for accountants. It must serve as a tool to enrich their skills, bridging any existing gaps. Often, these courses predominantly focus on accounting, finance, and audit. It's time to diversify. For instance, incorporating programming skills like Python and SQL is vital for effective management of big data, offering valuable insights. Similarly, integrating AI into everyday accounting tasks can revolutionize workflows. By expanding the scope of learning beyond the conventional, accountants broaden their knowledge horizons, accumulating valuable expertise beneficial for the accounting community in the long haul.
