Skills
The entrepreneurial spirit. This is not something you can acquire. You either have it or you don’t. Entrepreneurs tend to be self-motivated and don’t need to be told what to do. They’re not always looking for the “safe” paycheck but are willing to put themselves on the line to get what they want. They are open to guidance, but if none is available, they figure out the best way to handle a situation and go do it with the best of intentions. This is the entrepreneurial spirit! On top of this intangible “spirit”, some very concrete skills are required:
Good people skills! Working with clients. Forming relationships. Understanding their issues and responding with solutions.
Financial statement preparation. The candidate must be able to easily read and understand financial statements. They must be able to know how to produce accurate information that can be used to help the client make business decisions and prepare their tax returns.
