The Crowne Plaza, Dublin.
The ProfitPro Roadshow
From Des O'Neill (ProfitPro Founder)
“If you’re like many accountants, bookkeepers and tax advisors I speak to across Ireland, you’re working harder than ever… but not getting further ahead.”
You’re doing the long hours. You’re delivering great service. You’re putting out client fires, trying to keep up with deadlines, dealing with staff, recruiting, pricing, tech and yet.. It still feels like:
- You’re stuck in survival mode
- Growth is unpredictable
- Profit isn’t where it should be
- Your team depends too much on you
- AI is moving faster than you can keep up
- The business owns you, not the other way around
And here’s the truth: It’s not your fault. Covid changed everything. Good people are harder to get than ever before. There is so much hype about technology and automation and AI that it is hard to know where to start
The Institutes don’t focus on equipping firm owners how to run, grow, or scale a modern accounting business. But right now — in late 2025, as we face into 2026 — you have an opportunity that Irish accountants have never really had before:
THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD A “SMART FIRM” — A PROFITABLE, SYSTEMISED, TECHNOLOGY OPTIMISED AI-POWERED PRACTICE THAT GIVES YOU FREEDOM.
And this half-day Roadshow is where you’ll get the blueprint.
The 10 Challenges Irish SME Accountants, Bookkeepers and Tax Advisors face right now
No clear firm strategy
Undervaluing your expertise
Too many of the wrong clients
Revenue plateaus
No accountability
Time overwhelm & burnout
Lack of leadership structure
No systems
Tech + AI overwhelm
If any of these hit home… then the ProfitPro Roadshow was built for you.
