Who is this course designed for?
Senior associates, senior managers or directors in professional practices who need to improve their numbers and the size of their client portfolio if they want to make partner.
New fixed share partners or junior partners who want to improve their ability to win bigger and better work.
Ambitious managers who want to get ahead and short cut their journey to make it to partner in their firm.
Lawyers, acccountants and consultants in large, international and regional firms who want to win more work from their firm’s internal market place.
Your course is delivered by live, interactive, masterclasses, and email coaching. The interactive masterclasses are live, but you can watch them back time and time again from the comfort of your laptop or tablet. What’s more you get a transcript to read, again and again.
Every week you will be nudged into action by an email from your accountability coach. They will ask you what you plan to achieve in the next week as well as any help you need. They will reply within 24-48 hours to any help you may need.
Honestly, the best thing has been the quality of the content – the masterclasses were very high quality. They are FULL of amazing tips and insights into building your personal brand so you become the recognised expert. Plus, where you need to look and how to contact people. I am stunned by the quality of this course.
The master class sessions are super helpful because they are actually interactive. They are not a recording I can zone out of and ignore – my direct inquiries and comments were actually addressed on the call. That kept me engaged and helped accelerate my learning, and action commitments.
THE GO-TO EXPERT BOOK
The Go-To Expert system is based on the best-selling Go-To Expert book published by Financial Times Publishing. The book has gained over 45 five star reviews on Amazon.co.uk. You will get a copy posted to you when you sign up for the course.
It is a must for any one in a professional career that wants to get ahead.

How does the programme work?
Masterclass Expertise
For the first two months, we will meet online every fortnight for a 60-90 min masterclass. In the masterclass you will learn the exact same system which has helped our clients double, and sometimes triple, the size of their client portfolio in less than two years.
You will get everything you need to learn how to attract bigger and better clients, differentiate yourself, increase your client conversion rate and grow a profitable client portfolio.
WEEKLY Email Accountability & Coaching
From Day One of the programme, we will also provide you with weekly accountability via email coaching with your coach. This is your opportunity to ask the questions that are specific to your business. Let us know your plans for each week and we will keep you accountable, every week for the entire three months!
Everything you will learn will be easy to action right away, simple, jargon-free AND based on exactly what works for our clients; just like the Go-To Expert book.
Your personal copy of the Go-To Expert workbook and weekly email coaching will help and support you to implement what you are learning in the virtual masterclasses
Heather helped me establish myself as the firm’s expert on independent retailers and FMCG. As a result of working with Heather I now have the luxury of picking the clients I want. No more relying on following up leads from the telemarketer for me. So many positive things have come out of our relationship, not least a 5x return on my investment.
I was under pressure to build up a completely new client portfolio, from scratch, as a result of changing firms. I got the structure, process and confidence to go out and win my new clients – in a way which felt natural and authentic to me. As a result I beat my tough year one targets.

If you decide to add in 4 hours of coaching into your programme, you will be coached by Heather Townsend
Whilst you will get the most out of the masterclasses if you listen in live, we understand that sometimes it is hard to attend them all. There will be a recording available within 24 hours of the end of each masterclass. An audio transcription of the masterclasses will also be available within 1-2 weeks of the masterclass.
Our May 2019 programme is the only time we will run The Go-to-Expert this year. We do plan to start the programme again in early 2020. News about the programme is spreading fast so do get in touch if you would like to reserve your place.
What we guarantee is that if you attend all the masterclasses, implement a focused marketing plan, and take full advantage of our weekly accountability email coaching, you will win business worth significantly more than your investment in the programme.
We are so confident that if you do all this and you still don’t get a return worth many times your investment in the programme, we will give you at least 2 hours of 1:2:1 coaching (worth £600 + VAT) to help you build your client portfolio.
