10. Chapter 1
What is an App?

11.  It’s custom software you download on your phone or tablet and press an icon to use.
 For example; Sky, Facebook, LinkedIn, Uber, WhatsApp etc
 Provides content, tools and messaging capability.

15. Chapter 2
What if I don’t launch an App?

16. You are becoming replaceable

17.  Data is collected and managed today more by mobile and Apps.
 It flows easily from the client and their device, to the software
provider directly.
 Too few firms are building their advisory services to compensate
and create greater value.
The game has changed!
The collection and flow of data has already made firms
replaceable; this will continue.

18. 86% of accountants and bookkeepers
could be replaced by robots
A report by management consultant McKinsey warned that 86% of
bookkeepers, accountants and auditing clerks could see their jobs
taken by robots.

19. Stuart chose to become irreplaceable…
The App will certainly transform the way in which
we communicate with our clients. Email
communication can often be lost in this day and age
of swelling mailboxes; the App ensures we can
deliver concise and relevant information, straight to
their smart phone.
More and more clients are performing accounting
and tax functions using a mobile device, and the
software vendors themselves are spending
significant resources developing their mobile Apps.
Our new App can blend with this and form a great
connection between the client, their accounting
software and their advisors.

20. Unless you have your own App…
• You have no way to serve your clients in the mobile and digital world they are
already operating in.
• You are apart from the digital relationship, instead of the central aspect of it.
• You lose control of that mobile and software engagement and over complicate life
for clients and staff.
• You cannot be found in the App stores which account for more searches now than
Google.
• The flow of data, and the communication channel, is direct between your client and
the software vendors.
• Your clients cannot refer your App, rather a 3rd party software programme they may
use.

21. Chapter 3
The challenge your firm faces

22. Your Firm Your Systems Your Clients
How you work today

23. Your clients,
their data, their
collection.
Your
Firm?
Software companies
Are you being replaced by ‘tech’?

24. Client will find, or be sold, a solution…
If you don’t supply to your clients, they will go direct.

25. Clients

26. +
= ? ?(You’ve got fee pressure…)

28. • Competitive area locally,
especially from larger firms
• Needed to make the type of
quality firm they were, tangible
• Needed tools to give clients
which they would actually use, to
save time for them and the firm +
increase retention
Increased competition from larger firms…

29. Where we have noticed the greatest impact is
competing with other accountant’s business. For a small
firm like ours we have found we gain instant credibility
when competing against larger competitors, for
example we encourage prospects to download the app
prior to the meeting and almost all of them do.
As for existing clients they are always keen to point out
how useful they have found the app. A great decision
for a practice like ours that is ambitious and forward
thinking”
