CPD Course Speaker

Mark Wickersham

Mark Wickersham – Chartered Accountant, public speaker and #1 best-selling author – is known as the most sought-after profit improvement expert in the accounting community. He is famous for helping accounting firms double their profits in less than 18 months without having to work harder or do any uncomfortable marketing.

Mark is passionate about this great accounting profession. He believes that we have the power to make a profound difference to the lives of our clients and in return accountants should be very richly rewarded. Unfortunately, the reality is very different; benchmarking studies show over half of accounting firms are actually making a true economic loss.

Mark started his own accounting firm in 1996 and made dozens of stupid mistakes in the first 2 years. Mistakes which had disastrous consequences on his profits and cash balances. But in November 1999 all that changed. With help from Steve Pipe, Michael Gerber, Paul Dunn and Ron Baker he created the 7-step “Fastest Way To Double Your Profits” formula.

Not only did this completely transform the profits of his own accounting firm (which enabled him to sell it in a management buy-out a few years later), it has helped 100s of UK Accounting firms.

Mark is also a widely published author on practice issues. In May 2011 his book, “Effective Pricing for Accountants”, was a number 1 Amazon best-seller. He has also co-authored “Your Blueprint for a Better Tax Practice” and “Your Blueprint for a Better Accountancy Practice”, both of which have been widely acclaimed.
