Case study: Tax advisory

From printout to page: advisory consultations made legible

The reference material for advisory consultations was a print-layout attachment. On any screen smaller than a desk it was an act of endurance to read.

Before the build

Where the work started

Succession planning advisory firm in Santa Rosa, California: 18 staff; one locally managed operation.

  1. 01

    The starting point

    The reference material for advisory consultations was a print-layout attachment. On any screen smaller than a desk it was an act of endurance to read.

  2. 02

    The problem

    With advisory consultations, the file mixed several subjects with no way to link to a single answer. Staff sent the whole attachment even when the caller needed one small detail.

The build

What we built

The old document became a set of readable sections on partner responsibilities and the engagement process, with headings that describe their contents and links that jump straight to them. A print-friendly version is still available.

Features used
  • HTML reference pages
  • Descriptive headings
  • Section links
  • Printable summary

After launch

What changed

When it comes to advisory consultations, staff reply with a precise link instead of an attachment. The document's contents finally work at the speed of the questions.

In the client's words

Our advisory consultations material was always good; the format was the problem. On the page, people actually use it.
