Go-to-market agency
Most go-to-market playbooks assume a buyer who trials software on a Tuesday and buys it on a Thursday. Accountants don't work like that. They're analytical, risk-averse, deadline-driven, and they buy on the word of people they trust. We're a go-to-market agency that builds the strategy around that buyer — then stays to run it.

revenue growth for XBert
We scaled XBert's sales, marketing and partnerships together rather than in isolation — which is what a real GTM strategy looks like in practice.
You know firms need your product. You don't know whether it's the partner, the practice manager or the ops lead who actually champions it — or who quietly kills it.
The site talks about what the product does. It doesn't talk about the job a firm is trying to do, so nobody sees themselves in it.
A little paid, a little content, a stand at one conference. Nothing gets enough oxygen to prove itself, so you can't tell what's working.
Pipeline surges around conference season and falls off a cliff after. There's no engine underneath the events.
We strip away the jargon. Good go-to-market strategy answers five questions: what your goals are, who you target, what your message is, where to find them, and how you'll do it. We answer all five with evidence, then we help you execute.
Interviews and surveys with the firms already using you. We consistently find the features you think are the headline aren't the ones customers value — that changes your whole message.
Where you sit against the incumbents, what you're the obvious answer to, and language that makes an accountant lean in instead of scroll past.
Which firm sizes, software stacks and specialisms are genuinely winnable, and who inside those firms you need on side.
The events, communities, app marketplaces, professional bodies and influencers your buyers already trust — ranked by what will actually move for you.
What happens in which order, who owns it, what it costs and what you should expect to see. Then we execute it with you.
A generic strategy assumes a self-serve buyer and a short sales cycle. Accounting firms buy on trust, referrals and peer proof, often after seeing you three or four times across a year. We build for the channel that actually exists: professional bodies, app marketplaces, communities, events and partners.
The strategy work itself usually runs over a few weeks, including customer research. But we're not a strategy-deck shop — most clients move straight into execution with us, because a plan nobody runs is worthless.
Yes, and it usually works better. We plug in as the strategists and channel specialists they don't have in-house, and hand over playbooks as we go rather than creating dependency.
It answers five questions with evidence and then executes the answers: what you're aiming for, who you target, what you say, where you find them and how you'll do it. A good one doesn't stop at the strategy deck. Ours runs the plan alongside your team, across positioning, channel partnerships, demand generation and events.
A consultant gives you the plan; an agency gives you the plan and the hands to run it. If you have a team that can execute and you need direction, a short strategy engagement is enough. If you need the work done too, an agency saves you hiring before you know what the roles should be. We do both, and most clients start with the strategy.
Then that's the work. Finding the wedge — the specific job a specific type of firm needs doing — comes before any demand generation. Spending on demand before you've found it just buys you expensive proof that the message is wrong.
A SaaS go-to-market strategy is five decisions: who you sell to, what you say, how they buy, where you reach them and in what order. Here's how to make each one when your buyer is an accounting or bookkeeping firm.
