Episode Summary:

In this episode, Talila Kroy, Wayne Findlay, and Ian Aldridge explore why traditional marketing methods are failing accountants and how the "trust recession" is changing the game. Discover why partnerships and human-to-human connections are becoming the most effective way to grow your practice in an increasingly noisy digital landscape.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why SEO and traditional marketing are becoming less effective with AI disruption
