Successes in helping businesses expand globally

July 2018

Since 1983, Russell Bedford has been responsible for connecting professionals around the world in support of international business expansion. Long-term relationships are built on trust, leading to the generation of new opportunities and it is clear that right now the network’s future has never been more exciting.

Over the past year, we have introduced a number of initiatives to encourage business development. It is with much delight to announce the results of our annual Referral Analysis, revealing that the revenue from work referred between firms has increased by an incredible 35%.

However; it is not all about increased numbers. We need to ensure that the quality of services provided is first class.

So, what better way to prove quality than directly asking the people receiving the services?

This is why we requested our member firms seek feedback from their clients. The following is a selection of client testimonials that demonstrates our successes achieved by teams working together within the network across multiple jurisdictions (the complete collation of a sample of all feedback from clients can be found here):

This complements the networks other recent achievements:

• Listed as the 5th highest growing Top 20 accounting network of 2017.
• Recruiting over 20 new member firms in the past 12 months.
• Strategic expansion in developing areas; such as 38% growth in Africa and 24% growth in the Middle East.
• Enhanced social media presence with a 325% increase in Twitter impressions, a 15% increase in LinkedIn followers, with CEO articles engaging between 1- 5,000 readers, and our recently launched corporate video now having over 2K views.

A sincere congratulations must be extended to the people in our member teams around the world who, in facing globally challenging times, are helping businesses expand and satisfying the Russell Bedford promise of ‘taking you further’.
