Invitation to All Hubbers Who want to Increase Traffic and Write on Business Topics

Leonard J. Almquist, CPA A.K.A wiseoldaccountant

I would like to invite all Hubbers who write on topics that complement my accounting business to join my team.

We need team members from the following professions: accounting, bookkeeping, computer consulting, insurance, financial planning, law, paralegal, investment brokers, business professionals, HR, etc.

If your profession is not listed above, you can still join the team. Anyone who complies with Hub Page's rules is welcome.

Freelance writers could be of a benefit to the team by making constructive criticism. I would love to have an editor!

Team members are under no obligation to do anything; this arrangement is solely to increase traffic to hubs that members feel are beneficial to their client, customers, friends, etc.

Let me give you an example of how this would work. I am a CPA; recently I wrote a hub that was a checklist for starting a business. It went into detail about want forms have to be filed to start a business. Many new clients starting business ask me for a list like this. It did not go into things like how to write a business plan, so I linked it to several hubs on that topic.

What is the chance that someone reading my hub will click on one of those links? Wouldn't that chance increase if a picture of the link's author with a caption about them was next to the link? If I distribute my hub to clients, the chance of them reading the link would increase with a picture.

This is just good branding!

Now when a new client, who is starting a business, comes in I can give them a copy of my list along with the hub on business plans.

What if that plan had a link to one of my hubs and next to it my picture. Wouldn't that increase in the possibility that my client will read the hub? It would show that the authors are team players. The hub is not just something I printed off the Internet; the author knows me!

An accountant may be reluctant to distribute another accountant's hubs to his clients; however, if the second accountant has a picture of the first accountant on the hub, that reluctance may disappear.

For example, one accountant my write a hub on capital gain treatment of dividends; another accountant may write a hub on energy credits. Both accountants would distribute these hubs to their clients. By properly linking the hubs, their clients would be impressed that they are team members from different parts of the world.

I am in the process of setting up a system where handouts of some of my hubs will be available in the waiting room of my office building. I would love to include some of your hubs that relate to my business.

One of the best things about HubPages is that it is international. Why should I be reluctant to give a client an article by an accountant in Texas if I am in NY? If clients can see that we share ideas, they will be impressed.

Hubbers can be compensated for referrals. The link below explains how that is done. I could be compensated for sending one of your hubs to one of my clients, and you could be compensated for distributing mine.

It would be helpful if team members followed other team members; they could be on the lookout for fresh links.

Members could have newsletters made up of other hubs. These newsletters could be paper copies of hubs or e-mail's recommending hubs to clients.

If you want to join, please comment below. Please help recruit other team members.

This sounds like a great idea! I'm actually more of an editor than a writer -- please let me know if you ever need my services! Always happy to add a new client to the list :)

If I follow what you are saying... then I'm in. It sounds like your CPA practice and my Hubs on buying and selling small businesses is a good fit. I'll try to figure out the link idea. W

Thank you Leonard, I am very interested. I am new as I have only been here 2 months and have 13 Hubs. I am not on the list above but I am also willing to work as an Editor, or anything else that I am qualified or can learn to do. I like photography and am very good at it. Check out my pictures on some of my Hubs! Thanks
