On-Demand WebinarWhy Client Experience Matters in Every Tax Firm On-Demand Webinar<h3>Summary</h3> <p>Did you know that tax preparers waste up to 40% of their time gathering client documents in order to do their work? This includes chasing clients for documents, searching in multiple places, and dealing with pictures sent in via text. Firms who are able to make it drop-dead easy for clients to work with them, and still maintain a secure environment, have an enduring advantage over firms who are still using the traditional methods of communicating with clients.</p><p> The profession continues to change, as do client expectations. It’s no longer just about delivering a quality product or service. It’s about delivering an overall experience to clients—one that makes them feel good, confident, and willing to come back time and time again. Heightened competition and the modernization of client needs have challenged accounting professionals to find new and innovative ways to stand out from the crowd.</p><p> Come and learn in this webinar by Liscio how making a simple change in how you ask clients to securely send documents to you can result in them responding in as little as six minutes. Your staff will get more done, your clients will love working with you, and your firm will be positioned to thrive in 2022 and beyond. </p> <h3>Objectives</h3> <p>Upon completion of this course, you will be able to: <ul> <li>Understand the key factors involved in client response rates</li> <li>Evaluate how easy your firm is to work with, compared to other firms of similar size </li> <li>Discover an easy and affordable way to get clients to respond quickly to requests for documents, without sacrificing security</li> </ul> <h3>Course Details</h3> <p>This on-demand webinar includes the presentation slides, and a recording of the webinar broadcast.</p> 2022-06-30T05:00:00Z2023-12-30T06:00:00ZNone2022-06-30T05:00:00ZBPEODW2231Overview0N/A0N/A2022-06-30T05:00:00ZQAS Self StudyPremium: $0 | Professional: $0 | Basic: $0 | Nonmembers: Not available0Federal Tax Law Topic00TaxesNoneAlison BallFederal Tax Law Topic0 CPE for AFSP, EA, CPA, CRTPon-demand webinar2022September2023-12-31T06:00:00Z50 minutesnonoyesyes<p></p>
