What Changes for the Business
- Client email gets sorted and drafted, so simple questions get same-day answers.
- Missing documents are chased with polite reminders before they hold up a return.
- Bookkeeping errors are caught against bank and card records before review.
- Cleanup and migration jobs follow a repeatable checklist.
Where It Slips Today
- Senior staff answer the same client questions all season.
- Work stalls waiting for documents nobody chased.
- Errors surface at review, when they cost the most time to fix.
The Setup
- Sort the client inbox. Triage labels and reply drafts for routine questions, with anything advisory left for staff.
- Automate document chasing. Track what each client still owes and send reminders you approve.
- Check the books monthly. Run an audit bot against bank and card records and log receipts as they arrive.
- Package cleanup work. Use the cleanup blueprint as the checklist for every catch-up client.
Start with the first step, run it for a few weeks, then add the next. Bots draft, you approve.
