Case Study: AuerCPA — Accounting Firm Marketing Strategy That Grows With You

Six Years of SEO, Ads, and Website Strategy for a Modern CPA Firm

The Challenge

MINA'S FOCUS -

AuerCPA is a trusted accounting firm in Northern Colorado, supporting individuals and small businesses with tax prep, bookkeeping, and financial clarity. Since 2018, The Mina Company has partnered with Auer to lead their digital marketing strategy — including SEO for accountants, Google Ads, custom website development, social media, and branded photography. The result? A consistent flow of leads, a polished brand presence, and a digital strategy that evolves with the firm.

The Challenge: When we began working with AuerCPA, they had strong word-of-mouth referrals but limited online visibility. As they opened new locations and expanded their services, they needed SEO that would rank locally, a website built to convert, and paid search ads to support key tax seasons — all while maintaining a personal, trustworthy tone.

Our Strategy

We provided a comprehensive digital marketing approach specifically tailored for accounting firms:

  • Built and launched a modern, conversion-friendly CPA firm website

  • Ongoing SEO for accounting services, with emphasis on tax prep, 1099 support, and small business keywords

  • Targeted Google Ads campaigns around tax season and quarterly business filings

  • Branded social media content + photography to humanize the firm and increase trust

  • Monthly strategy + analytics to adapt content and ads to seasonal client needs

Redesigning AuerCPA’s Website for Trust, Clarity & Search Visibility

In 2023, we led a full website redesign for AuerCPA to better align with their existing logo, brand colors, and down-to-earth approach. The goal was to create a site that felt clean, trustworthy, and approachable — reflecting their commitment to both professionalism and personalized support. We streamlined the navigation, rewrote service pages with SEO in mind, and added clear calls-to-action that made it easier for prospective clients to book. The result is a site that not only looks and feels like Auer, but also performs — driving conversions and reinforcing their reputation as a modern, service-first CPA firm.

What Kind of Marketing Do Accounting Firms Actually Need?

Clarity, credibility, and conversion support.
For most CPA firms, the right clients aren’t scrolling endlessly — they’re searching. We helped AuerCPA show up in Google results with the right keywords, build trust through branding, and convert seasonal traffic with clear calls to action. That’s what real strategy looks like for accountants.

The best brands don’t just look good. They remove friction at every step.

We partnered with The Financial Edit from the ground up - creating a new logo, a strategic website, and conversion-focused ads designed to help her launch with clarity and momentum.

Because when you’re building a financial brand, trust isn’t optional. It’s everything.

We simplified complex financial conversations without watering them down.
We built structure that guides instead of overwhelms.
We created messaging that feels human but authoritative.
And we developed ad campaigns designed to convert — not just generate traffic.

Strategic brand identity.
Clear positioning.
Conversion-focused website flow.
Paid ads aligned with the customer journey.

Because clarity builds confidence.
And confident clients take action.

Strategy first. Always.

If your website feels unclear, it’s rarely a design issue.
It’s a positioning and strategy issue.

And yes — we can help with that.

There’s a difference between having a brand…
and having a brand that matches the level you operate at.

With Jo Leda Martin, this wasn’t just a quick website.
It was a full brand alignment.

We partnered on:

• Brand strategy and refined positioning
• Logo and visual identity
• A custom photo shoot to capture her presence and depth
• A fully rebuilt, SEO-optimized website
• Google Ads structured for the right-fit clients
• Print materials that carry the same executive clarity offline

Jo is an executive coach and counselor who works with leaders navigating pressure, identity, family strain, and high-level responsibility. Her work lives in that rare space between clinical depth and boardroom insight - and her brand needed to reflect both.

This wasn’t about aesthetics.
It was about alignment.

Her new digital presence now speaks directly to high-level leaders while preserving the warmth, steadiness, and authenticity that make her such an extraordinary guide.

And truly — she is one of those clients who just clicked. Clear vision. Deep trust. Thoughtful collaboration. The kind of partnership that makes the work better.

When your brand matches your expertise, everything feels cleaner.
Your messaging sharpens.
Your confidence increases.
Your clients feel it immediately.

If your brand has outgrown your website, it might be time for alignment.

Let’s talk.

Strategy does not always look flashy, but it is often the work that makes everything else possible. Membership businesses, like The Mommy Dentists in Business, often have multiple offers — including podcasts, masterminds, summits, and free groups! Marketing strategy requires clarity, timing, and strong tracking. Our role with MDIB was to simplify what worked, optimize what didn’t, and create pathways that serve the entire funnel — from first click to long-term retention.
