![]() ![]() You will be able to unplug yourself from your current outdated and weighing ways of running your practice. ![]() Unplugging yourself from inefficient ways of performing – Like the famous scene, you will go through an awakening transformation after taking the red pill you will feel an unfamiliar yet overwhelming sense of release engulf you to take you to a place of rebirth. Losing precious time – How much do you value your time? How many times have you sighed or rolled your eyes in dismay because you are repeating tedious tasks over and over, and over again? Spending huge amounts of your precious time manually inputting data from piles of paperwork and receipts into a spreadsheet, and then rekeying them into another software to make the submission, it all just seems exhausting! I can only fit so many words into a sentence… Do you see where I am going with this? By rejecting automation, you are missing out on a monumental chance at an easy way of life. ![]() Do you really want this to go on like this? As an accountant, you should know what your clients are doing. And why is that, you ask? This is due to you being limited by ways of communicating and preventing yourself from finding ways to build sustainable relationships with your clients. You will continue being the last to know and it will always be too late to do anything about it. At this point, you will wish you had been interacting with them more throughout the rest of the year and able to advise them against any purchases, or new hires that they made, that could threaten their finances. As usual, by the time you get to communicate with them, they will have already made purchases that took a toll on their finances. Sticking to a vision in retrospect – Your interaction with your clients is most likely to remain limited and you would have to settle with only catching up with them once a year when the TAX seasons arrive. ![]() Why allow yourself to be drowning in piles of paperwork and battling with your desktop due to occasional system failures, causing you to repeat tedious tasks because they failed to save to your hard drive? You are riding a monorail my friend. Without the use of a fully integrated accounting software suite like Capium, you are allowing your practice to run you, instead of the other way around: You are chaining yourself to your desk and outdated customs, and penalising yourself to a confined immobile way of functioning. Putting up with a sedentary way of performing – When someone is set in their traditional ways of working, they are limiting and binding themselves to an expired way of performing. Sitting in a deteriorating ancient burgundy armchair that seems to have succumbed to years of neglect, intriguingly weighing the life-changing decision of taking either the Blue Pill, or the Red Pill. Let’s closely analyse the pros and cons of this paradox as we face Morpheus: You are Neo. The ultimate question is: Do you embrace innovation or do you turn your back to it? When it comes to waves of changes in technology, they seem to come at us at an increasingly rapid pace. You have now finally met Morpheus and he is presenting you with a miraculous chance to escape your rumination cycle, and take control of your practice… All within an offer (and with freedom of choice, of course!) of taking either the blue pill (status quo), or the red one, Capium.Ĭhange is inevitable. But rather an opportunity for you to apply strategic changes to your practice that will provide solutions for your daily challenges not to mention a glorious occasion for you to salvage precious amounts of your time and money! Maybe it’s time to start planning that holiday to Bermuda?Īccountant Neo. With the requirement to keep digital records of all transactions in accessible software, the concept should not appear overwhelming or frightening. Will you ever be able to find a moment to do the things you enjoy in life (or find the time to deal with other responsibilities) seeing as brief weekends are just not enough? Or maybe you felt like Neo sitting in your small cubicle, wondering if there wasn’t anything else out there other than living a systematic mundane routine that makes you feel like time is escaping from you. But your concentration was suddenly interrupted by an unfamiliar and destabilising gust of change.
