I have always seen accountants as a good route to market for my services but in many cases they do not like to engage with business advisors. By working with Business Advisor and using the VFD-Pro product I have been able to break down these barriers by providing accountants with something they can understand and see the clear benefits from. In turn VFD-Pro has highlighted issues in their clients’ business that need specialist advice and guidance which I am more that happy to provide!

The best part of the Business Advisor Programme was the clarification of the process and what it would mean for my business. A method to generate more business of the ideal profile, without having to spend money on conventional marketing. Referrals are always the best kind of new business, so to be able to save money on all the usual promotional methods and avoid the pains of cold calling and networking, whilst improving the client profile and therefore the bottom line, is particularly interesting.

I liked the accessibility and availability of the BA team to support my sales activity, which is very good. There is a good atmosphere about the BA team and associated advisors all of whom want to hep each other to succeed. I would recommend Business Advisor to anyone who is wanting to work with SMEs to help them uncover problems and opportunities. The tools that BA have are unique and will almost definitely create opportunities in every prospect that you meet.

Enquir3 made it easy for me as a consultant to recommend the client engagement process to my clients, because of their level of understanding; the fact that they know what they're doing and they can demonstrate easily how it would benefit us. I was able to reassure my clients that Enquir3 make it really easy for them not to fail, from the ease of the system, to the ready-made templates, someone is there to hold your hand all the way. We have completed two projects so far and they have both been completely different experiences. One client already knew they had a problem but had no evidence, but as a result of their client satisfaction interviews their clients told them, and they then had to act. The customer had over-promised on customer service and knew they would be under delivering, and as a result of the client research they were able to pare back what they were promising, enabling them to focus more on their market differentiation which they can fulfill, rather than throw everything at it. The other project largely came down to customer service. They definitely knew they weren't fulfilling the needs of their clients, but they were not sure of the impact that was having on their business. This client research helped them realise how detrimental their current logistics and operational structure was, which meant these aspects were then nudged up the priority list and enabled them to have more grasp on the changes necessary. We all know the devastating effects unhappy clients can have on a business, but it helps greatly to be able to study the evidence in order to provide the solutions required to change. I specialise in strategic marketing for clients i.e. ROI, which you can't do unless you have a full understanding of why customers buy; which makes this data analysis absolutely critical. This is the key mapping tool that I need to work effectively with my clients.

There was so much packed into the day. What I liked about it was the range of tools that have been brought together for the accountancy profession. I've got the years of experience working with accountancy practices so I was looking to see what the basic proposition might be. I'm always interested in an opportunity. There are a couple of outstanding tools that could be extremely useful and that I'm interested in perusing further. I was very happy with what was presented and the follow up has been very good so I'm not at all disappointed.

I personally liked the experience of the different pieces of software; just finding out about them in more depth, as I'd been told about them but didn't have a really good understanding of what they did and what they were aimed at.
It was also an opportunity to meet other people who are working to the same objectives.
I came away with some good contacts. It was good to actually talk to other people and get networking at lunch time. I also gained a better understanding of the three softwares and what they could do.

I liked the numbers that were in the room i.e. it wasn't a huge gathering, it was a room in which there was an opportunity to have a conversation with lots of different people, but also for that conversation to be a discussion at times, with a number of people, which wouldn't have worked if it was a larger crowd.
ReplyThank you so much Gerard for your comments. We are so pleased to hear you thought the seminar had the right number of people to work. We look forward to working with you in the future.

There were lots of interesting and quite dynamic presentations. the thing that particularly stood out for me was the opportunities around the Virtual Finance Director. I went for a whole range of things, but mainly to find out more about Virtual Finance Director and Risk Dashboard
I came away with a whole range of opportunities in terms of business advisory.

It was well organised. It was a great day, well worth attending
I took lots away from the event. I think I came across four business systems that will help my business a great deal, but the main thing is it will help my business as it's helping other people's businesses be better which is a win win situation all around; it will create more business for the providers and for the clients it will help.

The presentations were good and I also think, from a personal perspective, the people in the room were of interest to me from a business relationships standpoint. I wanted to meet some new connections and learn a bit more, and I certainly achieved that.

It was all very good. I had limited knowledge and came with the objective of understanding the whole process, which was achieved. The facilities at the venue were also very good.

Fast Paced, Fact Packed, Faultless Performance and to Finish Presenting my list of words starting with F & P to describe the workshop I recently attended, there was also Free Parking! The whole day was interesting, highlighting the difference between what we know about our clients and what we could know, in a structured way that is, I found, beneficial to all involved - the Feedback Providee as well as the Feedback Provider - looks like my F & P list has another 2 additions. Thank you Steve and Dan.
