Pricing, billing and collecting fees What CPA firms can do to run their businesses more efficiently and effectively. By Edward Mendlowitz, CPA/ABV/PFS/CFF CPA firms provide invaluable advice to business clients but often struggle to run their own businesses effectively, particularly in the areas of pricing, billing and collections. Failure to set appropriate fees, deliver bills in a timely fashion and collect payment promptly—or even in full—cuts into a firm’s profitability, hurting the business and the accountants in it. Remedying this situation requires CPA firms to make a conscious effort to ensure they get paid an appropriate price in a timely fashion. To best do this, CPA firms should secure the fee agreement upfront, when their value to the client is greatest, and make sure they deliver excellent work on, or ahead of, schedule.

Proposal to Improve Customer Service Laura Etheridge ENGL. 3360 May 21, 2012 Benjamin McFry Abstract Every business depends on customers to stay competitive. These customers are in our stores or on our websites to make purchases. Without these customers many, if not all companies would cease to exist.

According to Amok his style could be title as Directive and Pacetting, which means that entails command and control behavior that at times became coercive. It also involves leading by example and personal heroics. The advantages of these styles are that it fuels innovation, productivity and growth but on the other side ultimately could erode organizational performance, demolishing trust and undermine morale.

Our business construct is a group of individual, work-at-home customer service agents that are independent contractors. They provide superior customer service to a diverse range of clients from computer companies, internet sites, telecommunications, resort management and electric utilities. Our class text further illustrates the mission statement: "Mission Statements are a concise statement of what the company stands for, who they service and what the company does for their customers" (Abraham, 2012, Para 2.1)." Matching the current client needs in an ever changing marketplace is difficult and not an exact science. The clients for our customers change not only seasonally due to market pressures but also daily, due to volume of demand for customer service agents.
Knowledge is power and for retailers, product knowledge can mean more sales. It is difficult to effectively sell to a consumer if we cannot show how a particular product will address a shopper's needs. One of the most important stages of selling is closing the deal, which are the actions taken by the sales person to gain agreement to the sale. There are many closing techniques in sales, which are prescribed actions that sales people take to persuade the customer to make the necessary commitment. No matter how hard you work, how well you prospect and qualify and regardless of how well you design solutions for customers, if you are weak in closing sales, you will suffer in the sales career.

While it is impossible due to the very nature of second-hand shops to have complete control of the offering, educating consumers about the benefits to second-hand shopping may appeal to those consumers who have personal values or ideologies related to not wasting resources, sustainability, the environment or helping others. The benefits that can be mentioned are things like how much resources are consumed when producing new clothing and then in comparison how much resources it takes for a consumer to buy a piece of already used clothing. An approach like this can appeal to those who are ethics and ecology motivated and perhaps even to those who want to distance themselves from the
