So what are our tips?
From our point of view accountants tell us time and time again that to get good and accurate accounting quotes clients should make sure their ads are accurate, clear, and with as much detail as possible.
Firstly, a small amount of effort goes a long way. It doesn't take much to roughly sketch out the correct business information which allows accountants to provide accountancy quotes that are precise and genuinely tailored to your business. This way there will be no surprise when the accountant finally sends in their bill. Bear in mind this may be some months after tendering — hence put the effort in now to gets things right!
Secondly there is another more subtle benefit to providing good information in your ad. It acts as a signal to accountants that you are serious in getting good accountancy quotes. Because the very fact that you have gone to the effort of detailing, for example, your accounting systems, the number of transactions per month, whether you need payroll and for how many people etc all means that you are both serious in your interest to change accountants and that once you have changed you will be a good client — who will keep their affairs in order.
Put yourself in the accountant's shoes. Who would you rather have as a client? The business which provides a two word description of their accounting requirements (e.g. "need accountant") with no more detail, or the client that has gone to the effort of providing all the relevant information that we all know the accountants are going to request before they give a firm accounting quote. And which one will get better quotes in response — not just in price but also in terms of quality and attention to the detail that you require.
Finally, accuracy. It goes without saying your ads need to be accurate. Why bother getting an accounting quote if the information you provide is wrong?
