As the New Year approaches, we’re all thinking about resolutions.

Maybe it’s eating healthier, exercising more, or spending more time with loved ones. But what about your accounting firm? Just like personal resolutions, your firm deserves a fresh start too.

At Renew Group, we’ve noticed that many accounting professionals approach their business challenges the same way they approach New Year’s resolutions.


They know change is needed, but taking the first step can feel overwhelming. That’s where we come in. Think of us as your accountability partner for building the practice you’ve always envisioned.

Resolution 1: Focus on What Matters Most

Just as you might resolve to spend more time on what matters in your personal life, your firm can benefit from focusing on your target clients. Applying our proprietary Pareto for Profit™ methodology to your client base can help you identify the clients and services that drive the majority of your results and show you what to do about those that are draining your time and energy.

Resolution 2: Maintain Healthy Boundaries

We all know the importance of boundaries when it comes to resolutions like work-life balance. The same applies to your accounting practice. Establishing clear expectations with clients and saying “no” to clients and services that do not align with your business model can help protect your time and resources.

Resolution 3: Profits Up, Hours Down

A New Year’s resolution isn’t just about quick wins. It’s about creating lasting change. By implementing strategies from our 40 Hr Firm e-book (especially around packaged pricing of services that make sense to your target clients), you can build a valuable business that prioritizes profitability and well-being for your entire team. Renew firms aim for 40 hours a week for everyone year-round.

This New Year, resolve to work smarter, not harder.
