Digital Marketing Services for Accountants

Gorilla Accounting is a technology-driven accountancy firm providing services to contractors and freelancers. The business works with sole traders and individuals who operate through a limited company.

The experts at Gorilla Accounting believe that managing your accounts shouldn’t be a laborious process filled with difficult-to-understand jargon, expensive fees or a personal accountant who’s never there when needed.

By offering unlimited support through Skype, email, telephone, video conferencing and in-person, clients are always able to get answers to their questions.

Digital Marketing Brief

Even though Gorilla Accounting had a small in-house marketing team, the company wanted to bring in some additional marketing experience and expertise from the team here at SQ Digital. The goal was to improve SEO rankings, increase traffic to the website, boost brand awareness and generate more leads. SQ Digital worked closely with Gorilla Accounting to develop a successful marketing strategy that delivered the desired results.


Digital Marketing Services

We recommended a range of digital marketing services to Gorilla Accounting. As well as our award-winning SEO and PPC services, we also provided:

Our SEO strategy focused on boosting the position of key terms on search engine results pages (SERPs). We did this by adopting strategic campaigns designed to drive organic traffic to the website. Many of the key terms that Gorilla Accounting wanted to rank for ended up on the first page of Google.

To boost the company’s brand awareness, we also implemented an email marketing strategy targeting both cold prospects and existing clients. We write several pieces of content each month – this helps build Gorilla Accounting’s reputation as a thought leader and expert in the industry.

We’ve worked with the accountancy firm to kickstart a robust PR campaign for both local news and industry-related content. This work has included identifying relevant topics that may be of interest to a wide range of publications, pitching those ideas to relevant journalists and working with the team at Gorilla Accounting to secure article placements on high-quality, relevant third-party websites.

As a result of our PR campaigns, Gorilla Accounting has featured on several accountancy-based websites, along with property and freelance publications. We also conduct regular local, industry and national PR campaigns to secure press of newsworthy stories coming out of the business.

We promote Gorilla Accounting across Google’s Search Network while utilising the Display and Discovery Networks to re-target previous website visitors and drive them back to the website to sign up.

Accountancy services is a highly competitive industry, and advertising across ‘Search’ can be costly. Therefore, we use Google’s machine learning insights to target users on the Search Network based on the audience profile they fit into (for example, those in the market for accountancy services). We’re then able to ensure that ads are tailored to the needs of each audience and the budget focuses on users who are likely to convert.

Digital Marketing Results

Since partnering with SQ Digital, Gorilla Accounting has seen a vast improvement in Google rankings. From barely ranking for key terms, we’ve now achieved the first page of search results for most of them. Gorilla Accounting also ranks number 1 for many of the desired terms. This has led to a boost in web traffic, which is now at record high levels.

We have a good working relationship and a good understanding of how each other works. SQ Digital are available when we need them, and I think they find a good balance between longer term planning and reacting quickly to events. They are very pro-active too and are good at suggesting new ideas and ways of doing things. It is exactly what we need as it allows us to concentrate on other parts of the business.
