Ep.135 – Most firms try to grow by chasing more leads. CSI Accounting and Payroll grew by doing the opposite: they built a system that educates buyers before the first call, filters out bad fits, and makes prospects come to them. In this episode of Endless Customers, Alex Winter sits down with Brian Paulson, CEO of CSI Accounting and Payroll, to unpack how a traditionally referral driven firm used content, video, and assignment selling to reshape their sales process and more than double revenue.
Highlights include:
How CSI built a five person in house sales and marketing team during Covid
Why investing in your own business is the real growth lever
How assignment selling creates better first meetings and stronger close rates
Why being upfront about fit builds trust and earns reviews, even from prospects you turn away
How transparency, including pricing, helps prospects self qualify before they reach out
How CSI went from chasing leads to having prospects chase them
What conferences and alignment days do to keep teams from drifting off the system
If your team is stuck explaining the same things on every sales call, attracting price shoppers, or trying to scale with outdated lead gen tactics, this episode will show you what it looks like to build demand by teaching first.
