Questions covered in the interview include:

  • How can an effective accounting system help an agency owner grow their business?
  • What are some common data points agencies have access to that are underutilized?
  • What are the core functions and features of a proper accounting system?

Hervochon explained, “As an agency, you have access to a lot of data. But are you using all of it to its full potential? There are a lot of common data points that agencies have access to, but many of them are underutilized. By using all the data available to you, you can better understand your agency’s operations and make more informed decisions about its future.”

Here are just a few examples:

  1. Revenue data: This can help business owners track how much money their agency generates and where it’s coming from. This can be especially useful for budgeting and forecasting purposes.
  2. Expense data: This can help business owners track where their agency is spending its money and identify areas where costs can be reduced. This can be especially helpful in creating more efficient budgets.
  3. Employee data: This can help business owners track employee productivity, turnover rates, and training needs. This can be especially helpful in managing the workforce more effectively.
  4. Client data: This can help business owners track client satisfaction levels, project success rates, and areas where their agency can improve its services. This can be especially helpful in ensuring that their agency provides the best possible service to its clients.
  5. Market data: This can help track things like industry trends, competitor activity, and potential new markets for an agency’s services. This can be especially helpful in planning an agency’s growth strategy.
