Questions
Common questions
Which channels work best for accounting & bookkeeping?
LinkedIn for business audiences, Google search for trigger-moment queries, email for regulatory-update nurture, and referral partnerships with lawyers and bankers.
What content actually converts in this sector?
Deadline and regulatory-change explainers, plain-language tax guidance, and content aimed at specific business types. Sector specialisation — accountants for restaurants, for creators, for construction — outperforms general positioning substantially.
What are the regulatory risks?
Professional body rules restrict certain claims. Tax guidance published as marketing has to be accurate and dated, because rules change and stale content becomes a liability.
What should we be measuring?
Client acquisition cost against lifetime value, which in this category is measured in years.
Where would you start with a accounting & bookkeeping client?
I start by finding the sector the firm is quietly best at, then position around it. General accountants compete on price; accountants for restaurants or for creators do not.
