How to stand out in a sea of sameness 



when all firms look and sound the same,
it doesn't matter how good you are

Do you stand apart from your competitors?
Or are you "different" like every other practice?

"Leading firm"
"Quality service"
"Technical expertise"
"Award winning"
"Passionate about"
"Client focused"
"Tailored service"

How many of these claims do you make?

Positioning for accountants

You don't know what makes you irresistible to your perfect clients. 
You deliver the service, you don't experience it.
You can't read the label from inside the bottle.

so, how can you attract the angels, repel the demons and become the only logical choice for your perfect clients?

“If you wish to persuade me, you must think my thoughts, feel my feelings and speak my words.”

Marcus Tullius Cicero



position your practice around your perfect clients' problems, emotions and aspirations
they'll only listen to you when they feel you...

...understand them


  • We do

    Help you to see yourself as others, your perfect clients see you
    Dig deep to unearth your stardust
    Make you incomparable, indispensable and irreplaceable
    Identify your perfect client DNA
    Ask annoying questions

  • We don't

    Go skin deep
    Take the road more traveled
    Whatever you want


The reason they want you to fit in is that once you do, they can ignore you. 

Seth Godin

Calling the courageous


It's time to make a stand, plant your flag and break free tohigh value, high margin, and joy to work with clients.
No more being lukewarm to many be red hot to your chosen, perfect few.
