Description

In this episode, I walk you through exactly how we lost a £60,000 client – and more importantly, the lessons I took from it that will help you build a stronger, more resilient accounting firm.


You’ll discover:


→ Why deep niche expertise beats generalism every time.
→ The danger of being too far removed from client relationships.
→ How client transcripts can become your most powerful content asset.
→ The difference between responsiveness and proactiveness (and why both matter).


I also talk about:
→ My Arabic lessons and the power of accountability.
→ Cold email wins – and why everything works when your positioning is spot on.
→ Why views don’t pay the bills (and what to focus on instead).


If you’re serious about building a business that runs without you, this one’s for you.


Let me know what you think – drop me a quick message on LinkedIn. Always love to hear from you.
