Listen to the last episode:
In this second instalment of the three-part “How to Find Bookkeeping Clients” series, Jo and Zoe dive deep into why personal branding is essential for bookkeepers who want to grow their practices. Building on video one’s “business foundations”, this episode explores how trust-building, visibility, reputation, and consistency help bookkeepers stand out in a crowded industry—especially in an online world filled with mistrust, catfishing, and AI-generated content. Through honest conversation, they unpack the mindset challenges bookkeepers face (especially introverted ones), discuss the shift away from hustle culture, and demonstrate how sharing values, lived experiences, and real-life content helps build genuine trust. They explain why your personal brand is what people say about you when you're not in the room—and how to intentionally shape that narrative. Jo and Zoe share practical strategies including content habits, storytelling, responding to audience engagement, writing blogs, and even publishing a book to elevate authority. In This Episode: Why personal branding matters for bookkeepers How to become “prolific” without working 24/7 What personal brand actually means (and what it doesn’t) Overcoming fear of visibility, especially for introverts What content to share to build trust What NOT to post—staying aligned to your own values How to capture everyday moments as content Using blogging, articles, and books to elevate authority How Jo and Zoe built multiple brands through consistency How to start conversations that lead naturally to client work ----------------------------------------------- About us We're Jo and Zoe and we help bookkeepers find clients, make more money and build profitable businesses they love.
