Does anybody know of a general checklist to give to clients in order to get all the paperwork to you.
I could make the templates but could spend ages for all the forms that a company might need. I thought I would check to see if any of you used a website or book that could be helpful.
I'm kicking myself really, I made all the necessary forms at my previous employed job but was made redundant and didn't think to get copies of them all.
Gerry - we've developed a Small Business Handbook with sections on filing, storage, cross referencing, what records to keep, how to organise paperwork and legal requirements. We use this as part of our service to help clients keep their fees down!
However, I'd recommend rolling a consultation into your engagement process and include organising records - I figure clients should pay for being told how to organise their paperwork!
