After years of favored treatment, tables are turned on Big Four.

On a CPA Trendlines research tour of Hong Kong and China earlier this year, it became clear that the Big Four was losing its grip on the China market after years of favored treatment. Now we have further evidence.
On our summer family vacation last month, we traveled through the east coast and I can’t recall a time when we crossed over more bridges. Some bridges were old, some were brand new, some low and some very high. And with each crossing, my wife would sink deeper into the passenger seat with eyes closed while our kids pointed out some of the sights only seen at higher elevations thanks to the bridge. Too bad Pam didn’t get a chance to see those sights.I’m not sure, but my wife might have gephyrophobia, the fear of crossing bridges.
In business development, if we have gephyrophobia, we shouldn’t be in business development. In business development we need to cross various bridges in the sales and marketing process each and every day.
