Accelerated Access to Accountants
Accelerated Access to Accountants
Mark Lee has long been the ‘go to’ guy for anyone serious about developing a fuller understanding of how to do business with accountants. He is also frequently approached by organisations keen to tap into his extensive network reach. In both respects he offers constructive insights, a positive professional reputation and his widely admired presentational skills.
Scroll down to find out why financial, software, legal and other organisations engage Mark to ensure that their teams better understand accountants, are better prepared and thus waste less time when engaging accountants for business or referrals.
Mark offers his services in this area with two objectives in mind:
- To provide enormous value by delivering advice, publicity and insights that are hard to obtain elsewhere; and
- To reduce the amount of time accountants are required to waste being pitched at or engaged by people who do not understand the accountants’ needs and interests.
Please note that Mark is NOT able to invest time or effort in anything akin to ‘commission only’ affiliate arrangements.
