Guidelines for Forms
These explanatory notes are designed to assist in the completion of the profile forms for your practice marketing information on the Rob Knights Services P/L – Internet Guide to Professional Services. Because the information you provide within those pages will directly affect the marketing of your practice, I urge you to read these guidelines carefully and think about the best ways to use their provisions.

- There are a number of sections within the facility.
- Contact details
- Communications
- Special Attributes
- Comments about your practice
- Services
It is important all sections be completed where applicable. Where aspects are not applicable N/A should be entered, except in the services section where services not provided within your practice should be left blank.
- Contact Details
This section should normally show the public name and the street or office address of your practice. Whilst mail or other addresses can be shown they may prove a disadvantage where client’s wish to attend your premises or seeking services within a set location.
- Communications
These are the normal communication details for your practice. Whilst there is provision for an e-mail address it is not essential to have one.
- Contact persons
We are providing for up to 2 contact persons. In the case of sole practitioners there need only be one. We do suggest it is important contacts be persons able to answer inquiries and represent your practice on the best possible basis.
- Special attributes
These are likely be key advantages possessed by your practice. Languages, additional offices, national or affiliated branches and international group membership may be key features for potential clients. Enter or cross out those not applying where applicable.
Local & general services area is a special feature whereby inquirers can seek a wider range of practices when an original search using location has not produced the desired result. I encourage you to enter a local service area such as northern beaches, eastern suburbs, south coast etc, and a general service area being the main city such as Sydney, Melbourne etc.
Accreditations will show your practice professional designation and/or additional accreditations. We expect this starter listing to increase over future months.
- Comments on your practice
This is your free-form selling area for your practice and services. You may wish to refer to future services, specialisation fields or any other matters relating to marketing your practice. This is your area of free choice! We have developed a “keyword” searching ability for this area of the profile. We will correspond further with you later on this.
- Services
Please list the estimated percentage each service constitutes as a whole percentage of your practice’s total fee income. The total of these percentages must total 100%! This is a key area of our GPS facility and we see it developing as the site matures. Some of the common areas of accounting practice are listed. These are not meant to be an all-inclusive list but rather a starting point to be added to as the site develops. Please add any other significant services applicable to your practice under the other heading where applicable. We will of course have to group services where possible under common use headings, so please do not merely rename existing services.
