LinkedIn for accountants and CPAs

Good accountants are booked through word of mouth, and word of mouth now travels through LinkedIn. Business owners deciding who to trust with their books, and peers deciding who to refer, often check you out online first. Between tax deadlines and client work, though, marketing is the thing that never gets done.

The LinkedIn challenge

  • •Busy season swallows whole months, and any posting habit dies the moment work picks up
  • •Tax and accounting topics feel dry, and you're not sure how to make them worth reading
  • •You attract price-shoppers instead of the higher-value clients you'd rather work with
  • •The advice you repeat to clients all day never makes it online where prospects could find it

Example post

A new client came to me in March owing far more tax than they expected, stressed and convinced they had done something wrong. They hadn't. They had just never had anyone help them plan, so every good year became a tax surprise. We set up quarterly check-ins, and the next year there were no surprises, just decisions made on purpose. Tax season is stressful mostly because people find out too late to act. The numbers are rarely the real problem.

Tips for your LinkedIn presence

  • •Make dry topics concrete with real examples, a story about a client who avoided a surprise beats a list of tax tips
  • •Post year-round, not just at tax time, the firms that stay visible in summer win the clients shopping in winter
  • •Avoid specific tax advice in public and keep client details anonymized
  • •Save the advice you repeat to clients all day as voice notes and let Edgar turn it into posts
