3 Ways Strong Client Relations Boost Accounting Profits w/ Nolan Bradbury 03/26/2025

3 Ways Strong Client Relations Boost Accounting Profits w/ Nolan Bradbury In this episode of Building the Premier Accounting Firm, Nolan Bradbury of Bradfield Accounting joins Roger Knecht to discuss the critical importance of strong client-accountant relationships, moving beyond transactional interactions, and leveraging financial reports to drive business growth. They explore the value of providing advisory services, KPIs, and the essential role of accountants as translators, ensuring business owners understand their financial data and make informed decisions. Key Takeaways: Prioritize client relationships: Build connections that go beyond basic accounting to understand clients’ needs and pain points. Translate financial language: Communicate clearly and avoid accounting jargon to make financial information accessible. Focus on key performance indicators (KPIs): Identify and track the metrics that truly drive business success, not just financial statements. 📊 Move into advisory services: Offer strategic advice and guidance to help clients grow and achieve their business goals. 🚀 Understand the Rule of 3 and 10: Recognize that scaling requires adapting systems and processes at each growth stage. Featured Quotes: Nolan: “You have to connect with the person on a level that is beyond just the accounting… For a relationship to be an actual relationship, you have to have more than one person show up and want it to be a relationship.” Nolan: “When people come to you to hire you for bookkeeping or tax, they’re not actually hiring you for bookkeeping or tax… What they’re actually looking for is the strategy that comes from those things.” Nolan: “The customer won’t care more than you care… They’re never going to care more than you are or get more excited about the information than you do now.” Thank you for joining us for this episode of Building the Premier Accounting Firm.
