On the Road: The Power of Roadshows in your Backyard
20 Mar 2025
There’s something special about gathering with your professional crew right in your own backyard. When vendors pack their bags and roll into your city, they’re not just saving you the hassle of airport security and bad airline snacks – they’re investing in local connections, bringing the brainpower to you, and proving that professional development doesn’t have to mean jet lag.This season, Aly and Andrew are diving deep into industry gatherings, starting with roadshows – those traveling treasure troves of thought leadership, product updates, and networking gold. We’re peeling back the curtain on what makes these regional events tick – from the logistical chaos organisers face to the classic no-show problem at free events (seriously, folks, just show up if you register!).Our case study? The Xero Summer Series – a fresh take on professional development that skips the sales pitch and goes all-in on thought leadership. Economic forecasts, tech trends, and wellbeing strategies? Check. But let’s be real – the real magic happens in the margins: over pre-event coffee chats, post-event happy hours, and those in-between moments where local accountants swap war stories and wisdom. Whether you’re a solo accountant craving community or a firm leader looking to invest in your team, roadshows serve up top-tier professional development without the cross-country trek.So, are you ready to hit the road with us? We’ll be exploring events big and small all season long. Tell us your favourite industry gatherings and let’s talk about why accountants really come together (spoiler: it’s not just for the CPE credits or is it!). 🚗AAAAA IS PROUDLY BROUGHT TO YOU BY OUR SPONSORSPlanet Consulting | We work with firm owners and managers who want to run better businesses and achieve their version of success.
