Automation driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning is completely changing and disrupting how accounting firms market and deliver their services.
At a recent Vic.
ai webinar, 88% of attendees polled felt that automation would play a hugely important role in their firm's future.
Historically, clients looked for accounting firms with a local or regional presence.
The rise of cloud accounting opened the door to an emerging category of accounting firms that are not geographically constrained.
Lately, a few hybrid bookkeeping firms have raised large amounts of venture capital.
These hybrid bookkeeping firms are increasing the pressure on accounting firms to adopt the same kinds of AI and machine learning technology or risk irrelevance in the marketplace.
Many accounting firms have so far failed to recognize this threat.
As a result, these slow-movers are leaving their firms incredibly vulnerable.
In much the same way that brick-and-mortar retailers all had ample warning to avoid their current fate, accounting firms must recognize that the time for procrastination, denial, and burying their heads in the sand has long passed.
