The forgotten masses – the problem
Not well-served by accounting software
Revert to less than ideal tools
(Word, Excel, Pen & paper)
Minimal financial insight limits their
potential
What that means for you
They are often disorganized
Data is missing or incorrect
It’s hard to make them a profitable client
