BONUS: a short bonus episode from the client's perspective - "Why They Didn't Buy Part 11 - Too Good for Sales Coaching." Great CPE or CPD for accountants with tips on how to avoid complacency in thinking that you don't need any training or coaching to win business. In these bonus episodes, we focus on the buyers of accounting services - the clients themselves. In particular how they feel, react to and experience their interactions with accountants. That includes why they buy or don't buy, why they move or stay and why they think how they think about you, your firm, your prices and your offerings.
