What 200-person firms automate first
Hi {{first_name}},
Following up on my note about eliminating tedious workflow steps at {{company_name}}. I wanted to share a pattern we have noticed.
When mid-size firms start automating, the ICs who benefit most are the ones who speak up about which tasks should be automated first. Leadership often guesses wrong about where time gets wasted. The accountants doing the work know exactly which steps are unnecessary.
If you had the chance to eliminate one repetitive task from your weekly routine, what would it be? I have seen what other accountants at firms your size have chosen, and the answers are surprisingly consistent.
Would a quick chat be worth it to compare notes?
Best, Personalization Tips
- Reference their specific role within the firm to acknowledge the type of repetitive work they likely encounter
- Mention any technology initiatives their firm has announced that suggest openness to automation
- Note their career trajectory and frame automation as a way to accelerate their growth into higher-value work
When to Use
Four to six business days after the first email. Effective when the IC shows signs of being engaged with process improvement or technology adoption.
When NOT to Use
If the firm has a strict top-down technology adoption process where IC input is not valued or sought.
