Welcome, Daniel!
This proposal details Teracore's plan to supercharge the Accounting Experts website, to boost leads and improve brand visibility. Your main goals are to generate at least 20 website leads, and secure 1 new client each month over the next year, ultimately reaching 20 new clients. You’re interested in potentially exploring franchise opportunities.
A Partnership for Growth
Digital marketing is a dynamic and evolving process that, with dedication and ongoing refinement, can yield significant returns. While we cannot guarantee specific outcomes, our strategy is meticulously designed to maximise your potential for lead generation and business growth.

We will use our expertise to turn your online presence into a highly effective lead generator that makes your ideal SME clients feel "safe, secure, steadfast, and rational" when they engage with your brand.
