EROs, one of the biggest mistakes I see tax business owners make is thinking every post has to be a sales post.
โFile with me!โ
โWeโre accepting clients!โ
โGet on my list!โ
โBook your appointment!โ
โApply for an advance!โ
Thereโs nothing wrong with promoting your services. ๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐ฑ๐ผ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด, ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐๐ผ๐ฝ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป.
Sometimes the better strategy is to invite people into your world instead of constantly trying to sell them ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ .
Thatโs what I call ๐๐ป๐๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ธ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด.
Instead of telling people how great your tax company is, ๐ฆ๐๐ข๐ช ๐ง๐๐๐ .
Show your team in training.
Show yourself preparing for tax season.
Show your office getting ready.
Show your preparers learning the software.
Show clips from your tax classes.
Show your community events.
Show behind-the-scenes moments.
Show client testimonials and success stories when appropriate and compliant.
Show yourself answering common tax questions.
Show people what it actually looks like to be a client of your company.
Then give them an invitation:

See the difference?
You aren't chasing people down saying โ๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ช๐๐ง๐ ๐ ๐!โ
You're creating visibility, demonstrating expertise, building trust and giving people an opportunity to ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฝ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ผ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ป๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐.
Your content starts doing some of the selling for you.
By the time that person needs a Tax Preparer, your company isn't a stranger anymore.
They've watched you.
They've learned from you.
They've seen your team.
They've seen your consistency.
They've seen you preparing before tax season even started.
And THAT is why I keep telling you all:
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
You should be building the relationship ๐๐๐๐ค๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐จ๐ค๐ฃ ๐ฃ๐๐๐๐จ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ญ ๐ง๐๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ฃ.
Don't make every post:

Sometimes your marketing should simply say:
โ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ'๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฒ'๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐๐ถ๐น๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด. ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ'๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฒ'๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ถ๐ป๐ด. ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ'๐ ๐ต๐ผ๐ ๐๐ฒ'๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ต๐ฒ๐น๐ฝ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ. ๐ฌ๐ผ๐'๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐ท๐ผ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐.โ
That is a completely different energyโand it's a strategy I want you to start incorporating into your marketing.
