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.
