• Exactly how good revenues need to be, relative to expenses, to create even basically acceptable profits…
• Examples of how clients can be/must be looked after exceptionally well while being charged fair, reasonable and proportionate fees that will underpin proper profitability for the firm…
• What the critical issues are… and why…
• Getting and keeping the right clients…
• Getting productivity and efficiency right…
• Effective relationship-enhancing, profit-protecting, disclosure on fees…
• Planning/Budgeting…
• Credit Control and Cash Flow…
• Pricing alternatives, confidence and smart psychology…” horses for courses”…
• Performance Review/Career Development/Remuneration… key do’s and don’ts… especially the immense damage caused to proper profits by pursuing the “One-Third/One-Third/One-Third“ myth…

This webinar is presented by Rob Knowsley, Managing Director/Principal, Knowsley Management Services, in conjunction with CCH Learning. It was described by a previous attendee as, “The best/most useful/thought-provoking webinar I’ve been in for a long while”!
