CTime for Accountants
Are you billing enough?
As an accountant, you bill by the package, volume, success, or actual time spent on your cases.
Of course, there are also one-off services for your various clients.
A question you have potentially already asked yourself is:
Am I billing enough for my accounting services?
Your clients are undoubtedly numerous and you adapt your pricing formula to best suit them.
How are you currently estimating your annual packages? Your volume pricing? How do you justify your hourly rates to your prestigious clients?
What if you could monitor, estimate, valorize and certify the time you spend on your cases?
CTime becomes your partner to help you valorize your fees most effectively.
While becoming the trusted third party between your clients and your accounting firm.
Monitor and estimate your activities
Your flat-rate fees are based on your experience, competition, as well as your numerous analyses and retrospectives from previous years.
What if you could monitor and thus best estimate the real time/cost ratio of your packages to adjust them accordingly?
Valorize your volume-based packages
As part of a volume-based invoice package, whether it's supplier or sales invoices, you have certainly already estimated the workload.
But what about the real situation? What if you had the opportunity to valorize and adjust this cost?
Justify and certify time spent
For your clients who are billed for actual time spent, are you able to justify and attest to the time you actually spent on the cases?
How about being able to certify your activities in a few seconds to never have disputes?

CTime is at the service of accountants
Cécile, Chartered Accountant
Cécile works as a chartered accountant in a prestigious firm where she serves a variety of clients, ranging from small businesses to large corporations. Her typical day encompasses reviewing and validating client accounts, preparing and reviewing tax declarations, providing strategic fiscal and financial advice, and managing client relationships. She is also often consulted for her expertise in financial structuring and tax compliance. In a world where regulations constantly evolve, Cécile ensures her clients comply not only with the law but also operate in a financially optimal manner.
Within her firm, setting fees is of paramount importance, both for client satisfaction and the firm's profitability. Traditionally, chartered accountants use several methods to determine their fees: flat rate, time spent, or based on the volume of entries, for example.
CTime then becomes a major asset for Cécile and her firm. For clients billed on a time-estimate flat rate, CTime offers an accurate internal measure of the actual time dedicated to each task, thus facilitating the setup and adjustment of rates. When unforeseen tasks arise, CTime helps identify and bill them separately, ensuring that extra work gets compensated.
For clients requiring more attention, where fees are often based on actual time spent, CTime's ability to certify this time is invaluable. Not only does it reassure demanding clients about transparent billing, but it also prevents potential disputes related to billed hours.
Lastly, when it comes to clients billed based on transaction volume or entries, CTime aids Cécile in having a clear view of the workload, allowing for more tailored pricing. In this way, the firm can ensure competitive pricing while preserving its margins.
In summary, CTime provides Cécile and her firm with a better understanding of their activities, more accurate and transparent billing, and strengthens trust with their clients.
