Everywhere you turn the price has gone up on just about everything! However, marketing yourself and your tax expertise is so much easier and affordable today. In fact, you can market yourself on a budget of less than three hundred dollars a year when you learn from what I will teach you.
The days of spending thousands of advertising dollars with no results are over. You need to know that I have spent the last five years of my life developing better ways to bring marketing costs down for tax professionals. I want to teach you how to stop throwing money away on advertising that does not work and start focusing on affordable marketing strategies that do work for you.
The very first thing I want to do is introduce you to Alexa. Alexa is owned by that little company we all know as Amazon. Using Alexa will inform you on where you stand online. signing up for a free account, click on “Site Metrics” in the left hand column and type in your site URL address. Alexa/Amazon will give you a site ranking. (You want a low number i.e. Google is Number One). Look at your numbers and you will find your global rank and your US rank. Now scroll down to the bottom and see your bounce rate and how long people are staying on your site.
