SME Clutch exists to close that gap.
SME Clutch provides Accountability Partnering. It’s a structured, proven approach to helping business owners and their advisers turn insight and intention into action and real results.
We work in two ways:
Giving you the support, structure and human connection to help you achieve what you set out to achieve, on your terms.
If you are an accountant, bookkeeper, virtual assistant, online business manager, business coach, or looking to become a specialist Accountability Partner, we give you the tools, training and framework to add Accountability Partnering to your practice as a valuable, chargeable service that deepens client relationships and grows your business.
Everything we do is built on a simple but powerful truth: having someone to check in with, someone who asks the right questions and holds you to account for the commitments you make, dramatically increases the likelihood of actually achieving your goals.
The research supports this. Studies by Dr Gail Matthews at the Dominican University of California, conducted with over 200 participants, found that sharing your goals with someone and receiving regular progress updates can increase the likelihood of achieving them by over 70%.[1] Publicly committing goals to another person is associated with at least a 65% completion rate. significantly higher than for those who keep goals to themselves.[1]
Accountability Partnering is not a new concept, but what SME Clutch brings is unique. We combine processes developed over decades of leadership, partnering with a practical technology platform that makes delivery straightforward.
That is what Accountability Partnering with SME Clutch delivers.
