We showcase the technology that can be leveraged to automate manual data entry work,. freeing up time to enable accounting professionals to grow their advisory skills and clientele base.

How do you build a solid technology strategy to benefit your business and in turn, your clients? 

Increasingly innovative technology has enabled us as accounting professionals to create more efficient processes in our daily business moments. It is time to educate yourself, adopt new technology and establish more efficient ways of doing business with your clients.

How can using workflow technology give you effective leverage in your specific, competitive market?

Ryan Watson, Principal at Unsourced Accounting and serving as Xero Ambassador, says. “If we can automate the kinds of things clients are used to seeing from their accountants, like basic bookkeeping and reporting, we can focus our time instead on delivering the kinds of things they’re not used to seeing – business strategy, financial modeling, and process improvement. Technology is our secret weapon, so nailing the tech stack for each client and workflow is critically important.”

“It’s not just about apps. We ALL experience app overload. It’s also about your processes.” In this industry, change is happening with applications automating our workload.

Are the newest apps really that important to an existing business?

The virtual trade show demonstrates just how rapidly change happens. “The sheer number of players in the accounting technology field has increased rapidly,” says Kacee Johnson, Founder of Blue Ocean Principles. “There are new solutions every year in addition to the familiar ones that accounting professionals have to evaluate and consider. As technology changes, so do the players. The number grows as fast as technology changes.”

When it comes to new technology, disruption is inevitable. What isn’t guaranteed is the fate of those who can’t adapt to change and embrace new ways of working. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are changing the way software helps accountants work smarter and faster. The next wave of accounting is just forming. By taking these steps, you can put yourself on the path to a strong future.
