“My dream allocation? Working in Bizzcontrol more than half of the time,”
At Linc , accounting is about more than just numbers. The firm builds bridges between financial data and strategic growth, with an approach that is as reliable as it is forward-thinking. With a strong focus on innovation and client support, they fully invest in digitalization and process optimization.
We spoke with Fatih, founder of Linc, about the evolution from a traditional firm to the advisory firm of the future. In this conversation, he explains how Bizzcontrol is not just a tool, but a strategic partner that helps shape his vision.
Fatih, how would you describe Linc's vision on providing advice?
“The traditional accountant of the past is outdated,” begins Fatih. “Back then, the client would bring in documents, legal obligations were handled, and that was it. Today, we go beyond that! We optimize our internal organization so that we can work faster, smarter, and more consistently. That's why we structure everything into clear processes and fully embrace digitization.”
He smiles: “When your processes are in order, you create space for genuine advisory services. We want to thoroughly delve into the vision and figures of our clients to reach valuable insights. Our ambition is for our employees to evolve into true data analysts.
As of today, about 70% of their work still consists of input tasks, but we want to reduce that to 25%. This gives us room for quality, interpretation, and advice. Digitization, through tools like Yuki for our accounting and Bizzcontrol for advisory services, is the way to make that happen.”
How do your employees respond to this development?
“They are actively engaged in retraining and upgrading skills,” says Fatih enthusiastically. “We are investing in training; both to elevate technical knowledge to a higher level, but primarily to further integrate soft skills such as empathy and assertiveness into our daily operations. Additionally, we are teaching our employees to practically work with Bizzcontrol, together with our Customer Success Manager, Layla. Our goal is to draft a concrete action plan, so that we have a clear way of working.”
“Today, I still personally conduct most of the client meetings, but we are building a fixed structure so that everyone can do it soon. And we’re achieving results: we are currently at almost 60% automation and aim to reach 75% by the end of this year. For that purpose, we have even dedicated a full-time person to digitization, someone with experience in accountancy and audit. That makes a world of difference,” says Fatih.
Bizzcontrol clearly plays a significant role in this. How has the tool specifically helped you so far?
“Especially in terms of reporting,” Fatih says. “We used Bizzcontrol too sparingly in the past. In 2025, we took the time to implement the sharing of interim figures, and the feedback we received is downright positive.”
“We also conduct discussions with clients in Bizzcontrol now, instead of in the accounting package. It not only looks more professional, but it's also much more organized. For my employees, it's moreover a support, providing structure and insight, far more than an accounting package,” concludes Fatih.
You mentioned reporting, how exactly do you utilize the report generator?
Fatih: “In the past, we hardly shared interim figures. We primarily worked reactively: only when the client requested something did we take action. But that is now a thing of the past. For us, the report generator is truly a key to change,” says Fatih.
“Thanks to Bizzcontrol, we can provide clients with more targeted and faster insights. The reports allow us to identify trends and proactively inform clients. This makes the collaboration even more valuable.”
“For us, the report generator is a tool to transition from accounting to entrepreneurial guidance,” says Fatih enthusiastically.
"Bizzcontrol assists your firm in evolving from reactive to proactive. If, as an accountant, you want to do more than just process numbers and truly engage with your client, this is the tool you need."

How important is the guidance from Bizzcontrol to make all of this possible?
“Fantastic,” replies Fatih without hesitation. “I greatly appreciate that Hendrik, in his capacity as Business Development Manager at the time, and Layla (Customer Success Manager) both remain highly engaged. Layla is incredibly quick in her follow-up. Honestly? If she weren't on top of it, we probably wouldn't use Bizzcontrol as efficiently.”
He smiles: “What distinguishes Linc from other offices is that we are not just accountants, but also entrepreneurs. We want to refine companies to make them better. Layla understands that perfectly and thinks flexibly along with our various locations. It seems obvious, but it's not; it requires commitment from her and from Bizzcontrol. You feel that as a customer.”
Looking ahead, what role do you see for Bizzcontrol within Linc?
“Our focus is on proactive advising,” says Fatih resolutely. “We want to focus even more on the triggers in Bizzcontrol to help clients grow. In an ideal world, our employees spend as little time as possible on accounting work, which we continually optimize through automation, and as much time as possible on advising.”
“My dream allocation? Working in Bizzcontrol more than half the time,” he laughs. “We even discussed this during a team outing where I shared my vision. It’s a significant change, but everyone feels it’s the right direction. That’s why we are fully investing in reskilling: our people need to enhance their competencies to take on that role,” Fatih adds.
Finally: why would you recommend Bizzcontrol to fellow accountants?
Fatih thinks for a moment and convincingly says: "Because it is the future. Bizzcontrol helps your office evolve from reactive to proactive. If as an accountant you not only want to process numbers but also actively think along with your client, then this is the tool you need."
"For me, Bizzcontrol sums it all up: it captures data from the accounting and gives it meaning. It provides tools to elevate advisory to a higher level. That is where every modern accounting firm should aim to go," Fatih concludes.
A big thank you, Fatih, for the inspiring conversation and your infectious enthusiasm. Your vision for the accountant of the future and your drive to transform Linc into a data-driven advisory firm are undoubtedly motivating for the entire sector!
