a startling statistic about the effectiveness of marketing planning.
the most successful tax and accounting firms – large, small and in between – are 14 times more likely than laggard firms to work from a written marketing plan, according to 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research.
coincidence? we think not. the real question is why so few firms make the effort to create and follow a practice development plan when the payoff is so significant and assured.

the webinar on creating a marketing plan in only 90 days is scheduled for thursday, sept. 20, at 12 noon et (11 am central, 10 am rocky mountain, and 9 am pacific). it’s the first in a new set of webinars deigned to give firms a headstart on new strategies for 2013.
the 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research for the sevenkeys cpa program also shows:
- leaders are 5 times more likely than laggards to have marketing strategies that achieve their goals, and
