SelfOperate

A practice website that earns the first call.

Clients choose an accountant or bookkeeper on trust, usually after a referral and a look at your website. We build a site that explains your services in plain words and takes an intake request with the right details. Digital employees then draft replies to practice questions and look things up, while client matters stay with you.

Free website check. No card needed. About a minute.

Practice questions, answered

Drafts replies to practice questions from your fact sheet: who you take on, how an engagement starts, what you do and do not offer, when you are booked until. She does not discuss any client's finances, tax positions or deadlines; anything of that kind comes to you.

What it looks likeExample

Prospective clientAre you taking on new clients this spring?

MayaYes, from April. Here's what the first call covers; the owner will reply with times.

The details

Everything else, in plain words.

Your website lists services nobody searches for
"Tax preparation, bookkeeping, advisory" is true of every practice. A small business owner looking for help wants to know if you work with someone like them, in their industry, at their size.
First contact is a long email thread
Do you take new clients? What do you charge? Do you do payroll? The same questions arrive every week, and each answer is typed from scratch between client work.
Busy season buries everything
From January to April, new inquiries wait. A prospect who gets no reply for a week is gone, and you may never know they wrote.
Staying visible between referrals
Most work comes from referrals, which is good, but a prospect told to talk to you will look you up first. What they find has to match the recommendation.
