Meet Gaynor Meilke, Founder & Chief Opportunity Officer of Charisma Ink, the marketing and PR agency for accounting professionals. She’s also the author of several “marketing for accountants” books, including the soon-to-be-released The Market Ownership Method.
In this webinar, Gaynor shares her knowledge and practical insights to help business owners simplify their strategy and develop a solid plan to create a continuous stream of new clients. We learned the latest effective marketing strategies to help firms generate new leads and build a brand that sells itself, plus tips on how to leverage AI to amplify efforts.
Our top 5 key takeaways are:
- You have to structure your accounting services according to the client demographic, so you can show that you understand their unique needs.
- Your existing client base is gold; use them for word-of-mouth marketing and social proof to attract new clients.
- If you’ve never done marketing for your practice, start small with your activities and try to achieve 3 minor goals instead of implementing major marketing campaigns; walk before you can run.
- Prioritize LinkedIn for marketing your accounting firm because it’s the most B2B-focused platform available and you can position your firm well as an expert, using actionable content, within specific niches.
- Take advantage of your local market; go out in the community and network with other professionals who know your locally-located existing clients; this is a more powerful strategy than most practices and professionals realize.
