Client-Getting Foundations Checklist
Free for anyone in accounting or bookkeeping

Find the gaps costing you clients.

Most firms do not lose clients because their work is poor. They lose them in the gaps between “someone found us” and “someone booked a call”. This checklist finds those gaps.

Client-Getting Foundations Checklist
The Client-Getting Foundations Checklist: the cover and a checklist page
  • Twenty yes-or-no checks across the 5 Cs of client-getting
  • A scorecard that shows your lowest C in about ten minutes
  • A first fix for each C, so you know where to start
What is inside

The 5 Cs every firm needs to win clients online.

Each C is something a firm either has in place or does not. Together they take a stranger from first visit to happy client.

C1 · Credibility

Visitors trust you at a glance

Does your website say who you help, prove you are real and make the next step obvious?

C2 · Convenience

Booking takes seconds

Can a visitor book a call before they change their mind?

C3 · Capture

Hesitant visitors still become leads

Do visitors who are not ready to book still leave you their details?

C4 · Contact

No enquiry goes unanswered

Does every enquiry get a fast reply and steady follow-up?

C5 · Champions

Happy clients vouch for you

Are reviews and referrals something you ask for on purpose?

Your scorecard

One number and a clear next step

Add up your ticks, find your lowest C and see what to fix first.

How it works

Ten minutes. Pen in hand.

  1. Step 1

    Tick what is true today

    Go through the five Cs, one page each. A check counts only if it is true for every enquiry.

  2. Step 2

    Add up your score

    Count your ticks for each C and write the total out of 20.

  3. Step 3

    Fix your lowest C first

    Each page has a first fix. The last page matches your score to the next step.
