An accounting and tax firm

Referrals have carried the firm. The partners want enquiries from search as well, without taking up their time.

Not a client, not results. A fictional business, drawn to show what the 90-day system could look like in professional services. Nothing here has happened. Your own plan starts from your own audit.

01The business

  • Three partners and a team of fifteen.
  • Corporate tax, VAT, bookkeeping and audit support.
  • Almost all new clients come through referrals.

02Where it starts

  • The website describes the firm but doesn't answer the questions businesses search for.
  • Deadline seasons bring a rush of enquiries that are hard to sort.
  • Partners take first calls that a coordinator could handle.

03The 90 days, month by month

  1. 01Days 1–30

    Foundation

    • Service pages for each area, with an enquiry form that asks company size, service and deadline.
    • A CRM pipeline with a coordinator owning first contact.
    • Tracking for referrals, search and events, so every source is counted.
  2. 02Days 31–60

    Acquisition

    • Answer-first content on corporate tax and VAT questions, reviewed by a partner, for search and AI assistants.
    • Search campaigns timed to filing deadlines.
  3. 03Days 61–90

    Automation

    • Enquiries sorted by service and urgency, routed to the right person.
    • Deadline reminder campaigns to past enquirers and clients, and a referral request after each engagement.

After day 90

A Growth retainer: content through each deadline season, and monthly reporting on new engagements by source.

How the 90-day system works

04At day 90

  • Search set up to bring enquiries alongside referrals.
  • Partners joining calls only when an enquiry is qualified.
  • Deadline seasons planned for, not reacted to.

05What we'd measure

  • Enquiries by source, including referrals
  • Qualified enquiry rate
  • Time to first contact
  • New engagements by source

06What we'd need from you

  • A partner to review technical content
  • A coordinator to own first contact
  • Access to the website and any CRM
