Most Belgian accounting firms recognize this paradox: requests are pouring in, but staff capacity is at its limit. Wouter Pieters, partner at Van Coile & Partners in Drongen, experienced this on a daily basis. \u201cAt a certain point, it became too difficult to find staff,\u201d he explains. \u201cWe then decided to stop taking on smaller\u00a0sole proprietorships<\/strong>\u2014whether in secondary or primary occupation\u2014for the time being.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The profitability trap of small accounts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The reason for ceasing to accept new clients was purely economic. A small account often takes an account manager just as much time, proportionally speaking, as a more complex one. Meanwhile, the entrepreneur\u2019s perception of the cost often does not align with the reality of manual bookkeeping. At Van Coile & Partners, it was decided that the role of the\u00a0accounting firm<\/strong>\u00a0needed to shift from data processor to strategic advisor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dexxter as a \u2018digital waiting room\u2019 for sole proprietorships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The breakthrough came with the implementation of Dexxter, a tool specifically designed to meet the needs of\u00a0sole proprietorships<\/strong>. By having new entrepreneurs work within this ecosystem, you create a win-win scenario for your firm:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Shared responsibility:<\/strong>\u00a0Your clients do 80% of the preparatory work themselves. Entrepreneurs like Yannick enter their daily receipts and invoices directly into the smartphone app. They describe it as \u201cchild\u2019s play\u201d.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Free accountancy portal:<\/strong>\u00a0As an accountant, you get completely free access to an\u00a0overarching portal<\/a>. At a glance, you can see the quarterly revenue, expenses, and taxable income for all your linked accounts. You only need to take action when you receive a notification or when the figures indicate continued growth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Smart automation:<\/strong>\u00a0The software prevents double entries and automatically applies VAT reverse charge to EU invoices. This ensures that the data delivered to your\u00a0accounting firm<\/strong>\u00a0is of unparalleled quality.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    A pipeline for the corporations of tomorrow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cA client who is small today doesn\u2019t have to stay small forever,\u201d says Wouter. By using Dexxter as a \u2018waiting room,\u2019 you can retain these sole proprietorships<\/strong> during their growth phase at minimal operational cost. When they make the transition to a corporation, you already have a strong relationship with them, and they\u2019ll return to you as ideal, digitally savvy clients for double-entry bookkeeping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Today, Van Coile & Partners is once again serving new business owners with great pleasure and profitability. They are building their client portfolio without the constant pressure to recruit new clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
