Accelerating Business Advisory



Over 83% of Public Practice firms offer some form of advisory service to their clients and the demand is growing. It is expected that Business Advisory will be the service in highest demand from clients in the next 6-12 months.

However, while most firms offer some sort of 'Business Advisory' service, many have struggled to build a solid foundation and generate a healthy and rewarding revenue stream from their offering. In many cases, firms (and accounting professionals) that have the talent to make it happen are leaving opportunity on the table.

This session, with The Outperformer (Aidan Parsons and Brad Eisenhuth), will discuss the key pillars to building a sustainable Business Advisory practice and a methodical approach to providing genuine value in this space.

In growing a ‘Genuine’ Business Advisory a healthy, profitable and sustainable offering, we will explore;

• Identification of the key foundations of genuine business advisory, including visioneering, performance areas and architecture, task attribution and reviews.

• How to position and sell advisory correctly, with a specific focus on scalable client engagements

• Risks in developing a poor ‘advisory’ model and how to develop and flex your 'strategic muscles' in the provision of advisory with your client
