Скачать или смотреть From Rearview Mirror to Windshield: How Darren McNutt Is Reinventing Accounting for Podiatrists

Most accounting looks backward.

Darren McNutt is helping podiatry practices look forward.

In this episode of Beyond the Margins, I sit down with Darren McNutt, Partner at 2020 Accounting Solutions, to talk about what happens when you go all-in on a niche — and build systems that actually change the way clients make decisions.

We unpack:
• Why he doubled down on podiatry (and what specialization really unlocks)
• How benchmarking data gives his clients an edge
• The power of micro-forecasts when evaluating big decisions like new equipment purchases
• His “rearview mirror vs. windshield” analogy for modern accounting
• How AI supports higher-level advisory — when guided properly
• The internal “Fix the Flow” project that identified 300+ workflow roadblocks
• Why breaking the year into “tertials” keeps the firm improving consistently
• Moving beyond referrals into intentional marketing
• Building systems that reduce burnout — without sacrificing growth

Darren also shares the book that’s shaped how he runs his firm:
Profit in Time: The Accountant’s Guide to Have It All by Rob Nixon — and how its strategies improved both client and employee satisfaction.

If you're a financial leader, firm owner, or advisor thinking about niching down, building better systems, or using AI to drive smarter forecasting — this episode is packed with practical insight.

Listen now and start thinking five years ahead.
