Email Sequencing for Accounting & Tax Firms
Accounting firms can't do all their BD in January. Sequences that deliver tax planning insights, regulatory updates, and year-round advisory offers keep the pipeline flowing in the 9 months when clients aren't thinking about taxes. Mixmax runs sequences inside Gmail — where your team already works — and syncs every touchpoint to your CRM automatically.
Mixmax works inside Gmail and syncs to Salesforce.
Why Mixmax
Sequences that work where accounting firm business developers already work
Tax season keeps the lights on, but advisory services build the firm. Sequences that deliver tax planning insights, regulatory updates, and advisory offers year-round keep your pipeline moving when clients aren't thinking about April 15.
Multi-step sequences inside Gmail
Build year-round BD sequences that demonstrate advisory expertise — a Q1 tax planning preview, a Q2 regulatory update, a Q3 R&D credit assessment offer, and a Q4 year-end strategy session invite. Each step positions your firm as a strategic advisor, not just a compliance provider, and fires on a schedule that keeps you relevant beyond tax season.
AI-optimized send timing
Mixmax's Smart Send analyzes when each CFO is most likely to open and respond — then delivers your sequence emails at that exact window. Accounting firm teams using Smart Send see 67% open rates because every message arrives when the recipient is actively in their inbox.
Real-time engagement signals
See who opened, clicked, and replied — in real time, inside Gmail. When a CFO engages with step 2 of your sequence, you'll know immediately. That's the moment to pick up the phone or send a personalized follow-up that references exactly what they were looking at.
Everything you need to run outreach sequences from Gmail
Mixmax gives accounting and tax advisory firms multi-step email sequences, real-time engagement tracking, AI-optimized send timing, and automatic your CRM sync — all inside Gmail.

Frequently asked questions
-
How does Mixmax email sequencing work for accounting & tax firms?
Mixmax lets accounting firm business developers build multi-step sequences with email, phone, and LinkedIn steps — all from inside Gmail. You set the cadence, personalize each message, and Mixmax handles the timing and tracking. When a CFO opens or clicks, you get a real-time notification so you can follow up at the right moment. Every touchpoint syncs to your CRM automatically.
-
How do accounting firms use sequences for advisory services BD, not just tax season?
Build sequences that deliver advisory-specific content year-round — M&A due diligence checklists, international tax updates, R&D credit assessments, succession planning frameworks. The cadence runs continuously, not just in Q4-Q1. When a prospect clicks your M&A content in September, you know they're evaluating a deal.
-
How does Mixmax improve reply rates for accounting firm outreach?
Three things compound. First, Smart Send delivers each email when that specific recipient is most likely to be in their inbox — that drives 67% open rates. Second, real-time engagement signals tell accounting firm business developers exactly when to follow up, so they reach out when interest is high. Third, the sequences themselves support personalization at scale, so every message feels like a 1:1 email even when you're running hundreds of contacts through a cadence.
-
Can I run different sequences for different service lines within the firm?
Yes. Build separate tracks for tax advisory, audit, M&A, international, and any other practice area. Each sequence delivers content specific to that service line. Mixmax tracks engagement across all of them — so when a client engages with both tax and M&A content, you see the cross-sell opportunity.
-
We're an accounting firm, not a tech company — is Mixmax simple enough for our BD team?
Mixmax runs inside Gmail. Your BD team builds sequences from the email interface they already use — no separate app, no complex CRM configuration. Install the extension, connect your CRM, build a sequence, and start enrolling contacts. Most teams are running sequences within a day.
-
How quickly can a accounting firm sales team get started with Mixmax sequences?
Mixmax installs as a Gmail extension and connects to your CRM in minutes. You can build your first sequence and start enrolling contacts the same day. Most accounting and tax advisory firms hit 90% team adoption within the first week because there's no new interface to learn — it's all inside Gmail.
Multi-touch sequences your team actually runs
Build year-round advisory BD that works beyond tax season. Tax planning insights, regulatory updates, and advisory offers — timed and tracked from Gmail.
