About Us

We are here to help accounting professionals like you sustainably grow and scale your firm while working fewer hours with less stress.

Who is the club for?

Do you wish that you had the secret code, blueprint for growth, or other ‘marketed’ wisdom that would take the angst out of growing and scaling your firm?

Working long hours but often being the lowest-paid person in your practice

Feeling burnt out or lonely?

Being overwhelmed and not seeing a way out of it?

Knowing you need the time, accountability and confidence to put your fees up? But too worried about losing your clients to reprice?

Your clients not valuing what you and your firm does? And still not paying you a fair fee for what you do for them?

Not winning enough of the right type of clients?

Feeling like your firm's growth is one step forward and then two steps back?

Team members giving you headaches and giving you more pressure rather than taking it off you?

If so, then you are like many of our members before they joined the club.

“I’ve been a member of most of the accountants’ communities in the UK. The Accountants’ Growth Club has been the only one which has helped me sustainably take the step up in my business”

What our members say about us

The Club Groups

The Club has our Daily Power Up session and 5 small peer-to-peer mentoring groups that meet regularly. Attend one of these groups, and you’ll be with like-minded people with whom you can form strong bonds as you learn and grow together. With the club, you won’t be bored in a group discussion with others who are at a different level or life stage to you. 

The club programmes

Our expertly crafted training programmes are designed specifically for small firm owners who want to grow and scale their firms. These programmes pick up where your accounting and technical qualifications stopped! 

These programmes are designed for busy people, so you’ll go through the programme in manageable bite-sized chunks. As a result, you can easily implement new ideas, tips and techniques as you learn. With weekly accountability group sessions, you’ll stay on track, learn from your peers and make progress. Our experienced online trainers create a supportive, interactive, fun and safe environment where you can thrive. Intimate group sizes allow for personalised attention, ensuring the programme is tailored to your unique needs. 

These are not turn-up, sit, and listen programmes where you need to dodge the pitch to be upsold a service or new piece of software. You won’t feel like just a number here – you’re an essential part of our community.

Coaching and support

Running your own accountancy or bookkeeping practice is hard, isn’t it? But you don’t need to do it alone.

We’re here to support you to grow your firm your way so that it works for you.

With private 1:2:1 coaching for our members, daily drop in sessions (our Daily Power Up), fortnightly group sessions including peer-to-peer mentoring, professionally designed and proven training programmes, exclusive masterclasses and a great community of accounting professionals who help and support each other every step of the way, why not book a call to find out more?

Meet the team

When you join the club, you get the best of both worlds: mentoring and peer-to-peer support from accounting firm owners who have been there and got the t-shirt and coaching from our Growth Experts. All of our Growth Experts and Club Hosts have been handpicked for their expertise and attitude.

Heather Townsend

Regardless of whether your firm’s thing is accounting, tax, bookkeeping, Portfolio FD or a mix of everything, Heather has a track record of helping firms like yours grow and scale. 

Heather has spent the last 20+ years helping accounting firm owners grow and scale their businesses. Frustrated with the number of ‘mentoring’ organisations focused on the accountancy profession that promised the earth and delivered very little, Heather started The Accountants’ Growth Club.

Press, speaking and media

Get our books

Three business books are shown, with The Go-To Expert in bold red at the centre—perfect for those looking to learn how to grow an accountancy business—partially covering The Accountants’ Millionaires’ Club on the left and Profitable Pricing for Accountants on the right.

Our coaching, training programmes, and support aren’t based on one practice owner’s journey. You’ll get the collective wisdom we have gained from working with hundreds of accounting firms and captured in our books. 

When you join the club, you won’t be put into a box, given bland cookie-cutter advice or told to implement a ‘proven 6-step process’. You’ll hear from the Club Hosts (experienced firm owners) and others on what worked for them or didn’t work for them. This personalised experience, backed by our credible IP, is why so many of our members stay for years.
