MyFirmsApp Speakers at Accountex 2016:

While at Accountex we will be delivering 15 seminars on the subject of creating company growth, branching out into the massive market for mobile Apps and lead generation strategies for firms of all sizes. Here are the MyFirmsApp Speakers themselves:

Daniel Richards:

Daniel is the Head of Sales and a member of the executive team at MyFirmsApp – the global leader in Apps for Accountants and Bookkeepers. He is passionate about helping firms maintain a key role in the always-on App environment which plays such an important part in our daily lives. He is particularly keen to raise awareness of the threats posed to accountants and bookkeepers by 3rd parties and even HMRC. Without a firms’ own App, it really has no way to serve within, benefit from or control the environment where so many clients and prospects now spend their time each day.

Daniel has been involved in helping professional service firms grow and make the most of new techniques, strategies and technology for over 17 years. He is considered to be a thought leader, is a renowned speaker, and is the go-to-guy for firms and professional bodies when it comes to Apps for accountancy firms.
