CPA Blogging

I’ve lost track of the number of CPAs and tax professionals who have asked me for advice on building up a clientele.  I always advise against paying those “marketing” firms that promise to attract new accounting and tax clients via their deceptive advertising.  Those are scams. 


I have been telling several people that doing a blog and showcasing what you know and how you feel about tax and business issues is the best way to attract new clients.  In spite of the fact that I have made it known for the past few years that I am not accepting any new clients, I continue to receive requests from people to take them on as clients on practically a daily basis.


In fact, if blogs had been around in the early 1990s, I could have saved a lot of time driving around Arkansas, Missouri and Oklahoma presenting my Realtor seminars and built up my practice via the internet.  That’s how I would do it if I were starting out in a new market today.


I mention these obvious points in conjunction with this article on CPA blogging from AccountantsWorld that Ohio CPA Dana Stahl forwarded to me.  It has some excellent tips and creative ideas on how to overcome the “writer’s block” that scares most tax pros from undertaking a blog.
