Marketing for professional services companies is different than promoting a product online. In your business, it’s about the relationship you have with your clients. To hire your firm, they need to build trust with you and the people on your team.
An effective lead generation program showcases your expertise and positions you as a leader in your field.
At KWSM, we understand how to create campaigns and content that reflect your professionalism and capabilities, so relationships are built faster, and clients can confidently engage.

Marcia L. Campbell, CPA, a division of Smith Marion, needed to build a stronger online presence, attract more leads, and establish herself as a thought leader in the world of accounting and fiduciary services. KWSM utilized brand journalism to humanize her expertise, attract the right clients, and increase her visibility in a competitive space.
Through weekly interviews, KWSM captured Marcia’s expert insights on niche topics in the fiduciary field and turned them into SEO-optimized content. This content was strategically crafted to provide a unique point of view, voice, and value to her target audience while ranking for first-page keywords, AIOs, and featured snippets:
My business has grown immensely because of their input and hard work. We receive three or more inquiries per week from the website and more from the internet because of the SEO. The inquiries come from the whole state of California, surrounding states, and across the country.”
A business litigation firm with clients in California and Texas needed a professional website to establish credibility and generate leads. KWSM built a tailored site and more than tripled their online leads in less than one year.
I want to say we LOVE the website. We are so excited to launch and are so appreciative of all the hard work you guys put into it.”
A foreclosure processing service provider wanted to generate leads by targeting lenders in need of comprehensive foreclosure solutions to resolve defaulted loans in Arizona, California, Nevada, Missouri, Oregon, Washington and Texas. KWSM developed unique Brand Messaging and translated it into content that included email marketing, social media management, and blogging.
Working with KWSM has been great. We started with KWSM as a small company of 6 employees in 2021 and have grown to 12 employees in 2024. This growth in our company could not have been completed without their assistance. Through their marketing expertise, we have transferred over to a fully organic approach to getting clients and our client base continues to grow. Our current clients are impressed with all our materials and our online traffic has never been higher. They are easy to work with, and have been incredibly insightful in coming up with strategies for our very niche business.”
An Orange County-based estate law firm specializing in trust and probate litigation needed to generate leads for their practice. KWSM crafted a custom Digital Marketing Strategy that integrated several tactics to attract just the right type of client.
“KWSM has been our marketing partner for several years. Over the years they have helped us gain substantial growth. They have always been responsive and produced work of the highest quality.”
A California-based CPA firm specializing in trust accounting and elder care financial services needed to build an authoritative online presence to generate leads. KWSM implemented a content marketing strategy that included optimized blogs, social media, and website content for effective brand visibility. The organic content was so effective that some prospects would print the blogs and bring them into their first consultation with the client because they identified with the challenges explained in the content. Recently, the client was acquired by a larger firm, and the website was considered such a valuable lead generator that it was considered a financial asset as part of the M&A transaction.
My business has grown immensely because of their input and hard work. We receive three or more inquiries per week from the website and more from the internet because of the SEO. The inquiries come from the whole state of California, surrounding states, and across the country.”

Every business and brand needs a unique combination of messaging and tactics to reach and convert their target audiences – but too many agencies jump in with tactics without putting the infrastructure in place to maximize results.
