How do you market your accounting/tax practice? How do you market your department within a practice? How do you market yourself?
This seminar will provide the CPA with the ability to use the “Marketing Concept” (satisfying the client’s “needs” versus “traditional” selling) in order to expand their practice. The CPA will also be introduced to the concepts of the target market, the 4 Ps of marketing, “branding,” industry life-cycle (and personal life-cycle), and market structure.
The concept of both “business” and “personal” marketing will be reinforced through a series of “real-world” scenarios.
Upon completion of this seminar, the attendee will have the tools to create both a “firm” and “individual” marketing plan.
