From £12k months to £30k months

Samantha's accounting firm was doing well, but she was winging the marketing. 6 months after joining C2C, she'd more than doubled her monthly revenue.

Too scared to be herself

Samantha's been running her accounting firm for 4 years. She's always been determined, and the business was taking around £12,000 a month.

She knew marketing was what would grow it. But she'd never had a clue about sales or marketing, so she was winging it.

She'd been dabbling on LinkedIn for a couple of years, posting here and there. She'd look at the people posting every day + getting loads of engagement, and think she could never be like that.

She didn't think she was interesting enough.

The voice in her head
"I don't think I'm interesting enough"
"I can't be like that"
"Which direction do I even take?"
"Accountants are boring"

02 · The decision

She watched Chris at Accountex

Samantha saw Chris speaking at Accountex. He was talking about LinkedIn + growing on social media, which was exactly what she needed to hear.

She spoke to Chris on the day, then jumped on a call with Katie from our team.

The money wasn't the worry. She knew she had to invest to grow. Her only concern was that, after a few years in business, it might be too basic for her.

It wasn't. She spent her first 2 weeks watching the course every night, for hours.

You just spoke in a language that was just exactly what I needed to hear at that point in time

03 · The process

3 posts changed everything

Right at the start of C2C, there's a 3-day challenge: write 3 posts + put them out there.

It isn't about likes. It's about committing to something + not being scared of what happens next.

That's where Samantha's mindset flipped. Now, if a post makes her a bit nervous, she knows it's probably a good one. The people who love it are her clients, and the people who don't were never going to buy.

She stopped playing by the rule book + started being herself.

As long as you can just post without caring, that's actually the point that you start developing yourself

Now she gets to be picky

When Samantha started out, she said yes to anyone. Clients who paid very little, clients who were rude, clients with messy files who never got back to her.

Inside C2C, she learned to put real value into her offer + charge what she's worth.

Now there's so much demand that she's letting go of the clients she doesn't enjoy working with.

She doesn't have to say yes to everybody anymore.

We're not going to have crappy clients anymore. Only the best ones

Lifestyle first

Practically part-time

Before, most of the money Samantha made went straight back into the business.

Now there's enough left over for family holidays. And bigger months mean she can bring in more staff + step back from the day-to-day.

She's got 2 little ones, and spending more time with them was always the end goal.

4 years in, she's practically working part-time.

I've got a successful business and I can actually spend time with my children. I feel incredibly proud

What's next

The road to £1 million

She's using the 3-month pause to scale properly, so the business doesn't grow faster than her team.

She's not chasing supercars. Just a nice big house, lots of holidays + a team she looks after.

1£400kThis year's target
2£1 millionTaken in total, in 4 to 5 years
3A few more branchesNot 50, just a few
4Up to 30 staffAnd a holiday every year
