Literally, there are too many to list here but here's a sample –“When someone's adding value in your life, that's a relationship you come back to”“What do your customers care about?”“Marketing is the pursuit of ruthless experimentation”“Your marketing plan is as much about the things you are not going to do as the things you will do.”During the interview, Kirt made mention of a summary of some key concepts covered in his earlier podcast (Episode 69).

Selling Professional Services Show Notes In this episode we talk with Ryan Devillers of Slipstream Coaching about selling professional services. Amongst a range of interesting topics, we discuss what makes a good salesperson and how partners of busy accounting and financial services firms tend to focus on current clients rather than prospective clients. Ryan also shares some interesting thoughts about looking internally for someone who might be best to engage with prospective clients. If you are thinking that such a person should be a principal in the firm…think again! Later, in the Coach's Corner, Scott passes on some observations of his own from working in some dynamic, sales-orientated organisations. In particular he discusses how and why such companies achieve revenue growth that is leaps and bounds ahead of professional practices where “doing the work” is the predominant activity. In the interview Ryan mentioned a book he is currently reading, being Atomic Habits by James Clear. He also mentioned reading Your Professional Headspace by Scott Charlton. The podcast he enjoys listening to is The Tim Ferriss Show. As mentioned, please click here to download your 'Guide to Marketing Process and Sales Process'.

Achieving through others – leading your financial services firm Show Notes In this episode we talk with Jacqui Sherlock of Sherlock Wealth and Irma Bantjes of Stratus Financial Group about leadership in professional service firms. Amongst a range of interesting topics, we discuss engaging managers from a non-technical background to the role of CEO and the areas of the business that receive more attention as a consequence of the leader not having a client caseload. We consider when such an appointment should be made and the important role that the CEO can play in developing the team – as Jacqui says, “Creating star makers not being the star” Getting the best out of one’s team is a theme that features throughout the discussion. Both Jacqui and Irma share many terrific ideas from what they are doing in their respective firms to foster performance. We also contrast traditional ways that firms have dealt with issues such as recruitment; performance reviews; team training and marketing with how these are dealt with by a professional manager. The differences are quite profound. In the interview Jacqui and Irma also mentioned some books from which they have found insights, details of which appear below – Mastering the Rockefeller Habits, Verne Harnish Good to Great, Jim Collins Follow this link to access the free download from Scott Charlton’s book, “The Bold Accountant”, being the chapter entitled, “Why an accountant shouldn’t be in charge”: slipstreamcoaching.com.au/the-bold-acc-20-download/ To purchase Scott’s book, “Your Professional Headspace”, which was mentioned during the Coach’s Corner segment, go to his website: www.scottcharlton.com.au/purchase/ Jacqui’s contact details are Email: jacqui@sherlockwealth.com Phone: 02 8247 9900 Web: sherlockwealth.com Linked In: www.linkedin.com/in/jacqui-sherlock-9b962948/ Irma’s contact details are Email: ibantjes@stratusfinancialgroup.com.au Phone: 07 3007 2007 Web: stratusfinancialgroup.com.au Linked In: www.linkedin.com/in/irma-bantjes-0729a1157/ Scott’s contact details are: Email: scott@slipstreamcoaching.com.au Phone: 0409 870 330 Web: slipstreamcoaching.com.au Linked In: linkedin.com/in/scottcharlton To take an interest in Tim Lane’s music, which is featured on the episode: Facebook: The Backstick Agenda.

The road to success can lead to interesting places, with Melissa Voss Show Notes In this episode we talk with Melissa Voss of Fuseworks about her career in public accounting, the process whereby she became an owner in that business and her interest in process improvement. Amongst a range of interesting topics, we discuss how this interest in automating processes led Melissa to a significant career change. Melissa is now in a business development role with Fuseworks, a company that provides automation solutions for professional practices. Melissa is in her element with this role because she is able to assist those in the profession she loves.

“Websites that work” – a conversation with Matt Wilkinson Show Notes In this episode we talk with Matt Wilkinson of Bizink about websites that work. Amongst a range of interesting topics, we discuss the role one's website plays as part of an overall marketing program; the respective importance of content and design of a website; having “hero content” on your site, together with common mistakes and misconceptions. Matt also shares some interesting observations about “vanity metrics”; the benefits of having “hero content” on your site and how to be relevant to the core market that you are seeking to attract to your firm. Throughout the discussion, Matt also shares some powerful opinions about websites, such as “You don't need to be different. You just need to be good” and to be extremely wary about “SEO experts” who may promise much but deliver little. He is also very insightful with respect to one's overall marketing strategy, sharing that consistency trumps creativity and that accountants often under budget for marketing activities. We also put Matt in the “driver's seat”, being a six-month secondment as marketing manager to a professional services firm just like yours. His responses may surprise you!
