BUSINESS ADVISORY SERVICES OVERVIEW

There has been a number of surveys conducted by companies such as CCH, MYOB, Smithink, universities and other organisations over the last 15 years which have identified that small/medium enterprise operators want to access a wide range of “commercial services” to assist them to run better businesses, thus adding value to their business enterprises.

These services, which normally do not include taxation, audit or insolvency services, are generally referred to as “business advisory services”.

A number of accountancy industry consultants have urged accountancy businesses to commence to diversify their business operations by offering a wider range of business advisory services to their clients and prospects.

ESS BIZTOOLS has developed a range of products/services that assist accountants/business advisors to introduce “business advisory services” to your clients.

The package that most accountants commence with is the Business Advisory Services Training Package which includes 11 modules to assist the accountant/advisory business to prepare their team members for the challenges of presenting business advisory services to their clients, thus offering what is becoming known as a “Chief financial Officer Service”.  The 11 modules contained in the training package include (Click here):
