CPA Firm Business Development

 

Q. What is social selling?

A. Many professionals have heard of social selling but aren’t quite sure what it is. Simply, it’s using information on social media networks to approach people in a more personalized, meaningful way to grow your revenue. The results can have a significant impact on your business.

Q. Do people buy services, like accounting and tax, via social media?
