I am e-mailing to thank you and Allan for the tools you have given me to be able to land and close clients! I closed 2 clients today using your pricing and closing strategies (from referrals). The 3rd was an inquiry from my new BYF website - and after talking with me today they want to meet in person to sign up for incorporation and on-going tax/bookkeeping. Wow! That was fast!

It was great and informative. You should have more webinars like these. Thank you
Patricia Fleggas
The programs offered provide a wealth of information on marketing and building an accounting practice.
Arthur Barrett
Your program gave 3 really good insights to how better manage my clients. I planning on rating the clients over the down-time of the next 30 days and even identified 1 client who was monthly and is now a shoe-box as a candidate to retrain. This was a good hour and well-spent.
David Ricks
Very good, very practical approach and information. I agree very much with the objectives and am hopeful about the marketing results.
Brian Stoner
Great information. Have put some of your ideas from this and other webinars into practice and have already gotten results.

Selling Your Personal Brand: What To Be Aware Of Every Day
When David was a small boy his father asked him, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” David thought about it for a minute and answered, “I don't know what I want to be, but I know that I DON'T want to be a salesman.” “That's too bad,” his father responded. “Because, whatever you WANT to be, you HAVE to be a salesman.” It is so true. You are always selling. You sell your services, your ideas and, most importantly, you sell yourself. No matter what you do for a living, you are a salesperson. So what will help you succeed in this world of “sales”? Let's take a look at how branding can help you sell yourself more successfully.
Persistence
Today you will encounter countless opportunities to quit. It might be that a business proposal you hoped would come through will fizzle. You might have an argument with your spouse. You might lose an investment. Disaster might knock on your door any one of a thousand different ways. The only question is what you are going to do about it. Will you pick up your marbles, go home and declare that the game is unfair? Will you believe that you must just not be meant for success — that you are a loser that can’t get a break? Or will you decide to persist in your struggle, educate yourself and seek the answers you need?
Stop Wasting Your Money on Yellow Page Advertising
If your goal is to attract more small business clients, then stop wasting your limited advertising budget on yellow page advertising. That’s because there are more effective means to target small business owners and generate a higher return on investment. Over the next few years, the traditional yellow page providers will start milking this cash cow because it’s becoming less relevant. That’s right, the companies that sell advertising and then distribute those enormous books are investing their money on the internet. In fact, they are spending money with Google and Yahoo. That’s because consumers and small business owners are more apt to use the internet rather than hunt thru the traditional yellow pages.
