The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak, has announced that the government will publish the Budget on Wednesday 3 March 2021 and set out the next phase of the plan to tackle the virus and protect jobs alongside the latest forecasts from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR).
When it comes to client service, first impressions hold the key to success and delivering the right communications at the right time is essential.
The Budget presents a great opportunity for accountants to connect with their clients and keep them informed of the changes that will affect them in the months to come. If these are turned around in almost real-time and delivered directly to the home screen of your client’s mobile device, it adds real value and provides an important differentiator for the firm.
A project of this size puts a huge demand on resources and especially so, when everyone is working remotely. So, let us help.
We make sure that your clients receive a full Budget Update in almost real-time in the news section of your firm’s App. We will be working hard to turn these announcements around and get them live on the App as soon as they go live and as the updates appear to come from you, your firm gets all the credit for working at breakneck speed to share this meaningful content.
Eriona Bajrakurtaj from Majors Accounts & Co, highlighted during her session at the recent Virtual Accountex Summit the ‘lightning’ speed with which Government announcements appeared on the Majors App.
She said: “We have our own App and it’s been so useful with the pandemic as the announcements come an hour or two later and all clients get them.”
Before the development of Apps, printed cards would need to be produced detailing the changes, which could take days but now, changes can be communicated with pop up messages known as push notifications and reach your client in seconds.
This commitment to deliver valuable information to your clients is not just restricted to Budget Day: it’s something we do on a daily basis and clients can rely on having all the news that affects them in one simplified ‘all-in-one-place’ environment in your App on the home screen of their mobile device.
This all goes towards presenting the firm as forward-looking, technologically advanced; accessible 24/7 and ‘doing-it-for-them’.
There’s still time to get your own App live in time for Budget Day so get in touch today – email danielr@myfirmsapp.com
