Seamlss, a first-of-its-kind app in Australia, promises to onboard new clients in minutes.27/12/2022
With so many competing demands facing accountants and bookkeepers at any one time, it's no surprise that firms are looking for ways to improve their productivity and processes.
Emerging technology can be a game-changer when it comes to managing the day-to-day of a firm, something Clayton Wood — business owner and technology evangelist — understood more than most. “Onboarding clients is a massive pain-point for a lot of firms. It got to the point where I thought, we can’t keep working like this anymore,” said Clayton. “I had an idea, and had to make it happen, so the Seamlss app came to life.” Put yourself in your client's shoes. What first comes to mind when you hear the phrase ‘tax audit insurance’? Perhaps you think, “Oh, I’ve never been audited, so there’s no need,” or “I pay my accountant to do their job properly, isn’t that enough?,” or even “Great, more insurance I don’t need…”
Well, what if they heard the phrase ‘insurance that covers the professional costs of responding to reviews, audits, compliance obligations, prompted by the ATO or other governing bodies, for any and all historical tax returns while a policy is in force’? It’s a mouthful, but you would hope it would make them - and you - think more carefully about the possible benefits of such insurance. |
