Reporting when it’s not Business As Usual

In June, we put together 12 blog posts on using Fathom to help see your clients or business through lockdown and beyond. And though those conditions have eased somewhat, they’ve certainly not gone away. The verdict from accountants who downloaded it? Well, in the words of Paul Barnes at MAP, “that’s impressive”. So if you missed our Business Unusual series, you’ll be pleased to hear you can get them all as one handy PDF here.

Tracking essential KPIs

At Fathom, we know how important KPIs are to the health of your business. So we’ve teamed up with our friends at Seedstars and together, we’ve put all our knowledge, tips and experience into a free handy e-book. It’s packed with tips, examples and advice on questions such as:

  • How do I review my existing KPIs or define new ones?
  • How do I set the right targets for my business KPIs?
  • What’s the best way to build (or streamline) a reporting system?
  • What are the tools and reporting systems in the market?

Webinars

The team here at Fathom run regular demonstration webinars in your timezone every Wednesday and Thursday (you can register for one here). But if you can’t make it, we also have several recordings available.

Consolidations webinar

Processing consolidations manually in spreadsheets takes time and can often be prone to error. Not only that, but the information might not always be the most up to date. At Fathom, we eat these problems for lunch. In this webinar we showcase Fathom’s consolidation and benchmarking functionality and how you can use them with your clients or business.

Revolut webinar

In July, we partnered with Revolut on a joint webinar. The topic was how to save cash, trim costs, and generally have a leaner business, with specific examples of cost-saving strategies and actionable outcomes. If you missed it, it's now available on-demand.

We've pulled together some short videos and articles that show you how and when to showcase Fathom, win remote clients, and start that advisory journey.
