What are the benefits of PR for accountants and financial advisors?

PR can put you in front of the audiences that really matter to your business. 

With the right strategy in place, public relations will build your reputation as an accountant or financial advisor, both online and offline.  

Build trust

When potential clients see your experts quoted in the press, that builds trust.

So does sharing news about your successes, from major appointments and investments to client wins and case studies. 

Demonstrate expertise

Sharing knowledge and advice through PR showcases the high-level expertise and experience of your team. 

Stand out in a competitive market

We don’t do PR fluff. As former journalists or trained journalists, our team has a nose for real news, so we know how to get headlines about your accountancy firm in the titles that your audience reads. 

And, ultimately, stand out from your competitors. 

Increase online visibility 

Your presence in the media directly impacts how visible you are in search engines and AI platforms.

Keeping your brand and your financial thought leaders in the media spotlight can support your SEO and AIO strategy.

FAQs: PR for accountants and financial advisors

What is financial PR?

Financial PR is about making complex financial topics accessible, building trust through credible media coverage and showcasing the expertise within a business.  

By combining thought leadership, media relations and digital visibility, PR agencies help financial brands strengthen their reputation and reach their target audiences. 

Why do accountants and financial advisors need PR?

Fifty per cent of shoppers consult two to three marketing channels before making a purchase and for B2B decision making, those numbers are even higher. 

PR keeps your accountancy firm visible in the media, both online and offline, which helps to build brand awareness and trust among your audience. 

It also supports your business’ visibility in search engines like Google by ensuring the name of your company and senior experts mentioned in the press. This is a sign of that your business is trusted and an authority on the topic of finance. 

How to choose a PR agency for your accountancy or financial services firm

Having an internal understanding of your aims and objectives is a great place to start before approaching a PR agency, as this will influence the type of support that you need. 

Is your priority for regional or national growth? Do you need to attract high calibre employees? Or do you want to maintain your local reputation and visibility? 

Based on your objectives, you could search for a PR agency that specialises in finance and accountancy, and has proven experience and results in your sector, or you could choose a local PR agency with a portfolio of coverage from your target media. 

Read our blog post on how to find the right PR agency for more tips and a checklist of questions. 

Can PR help my accountancy firm show up in AI?

With the right strategy, yes. An in-depth study from software specialist Muck Rack found that 95% of AI citations come from non-paid media, with 89% of results from earned media and 27% from journalistic content.  

But not all press coverage is equal in the eyes of AI. Some top tier national and regional news websites do not allow AI crawling, including MailOnline, iNews, Metro and BBC News, and as AI is still very much in its infancy, this landscape is still evolving.  

Understanding which media titles are cited in AI is essential for the PR agency of any accountancy firm looking to show up in tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini.  

Research also shows that AI prefers fresh content, so you need to consider a consistent approach to PR to gain visibility and maintain it.
