In this episode of The Valisights Podcast, host Albert Ramos sits down with Irene-Marie Seelig, Co-Founder and CEO of AccountGroove, for a tactical conversation on pricing psychology, workflow automation, and building a modern, scalable firm.
Irene shares how she went from custom software development for brands like Adidas to launching a proposal-to-billing platform that’s transforming how accountants and fractional CFOs package and price their services. She breaks down the power of 3-tier pricing, the hidden insights behind proposal acceptance rates, and why niche positioning is the growth unlock most firms overlook.
You’ll hear Irene’s hard-won lessons from the trenches, including what makes premium-tier clients say “yes,” how to build time freedom through automation, and why financial professionals need to stop duct-taping their workflows together.
Plus, Irene shares her take on Valisights and how AI-powered strategic finance platforms are reshaping the role of today’s firm owners and finance leaders.
