ROI CFO

Prepared for JC Majors and Bryson Hunter

Earn the right to scale, then fill the room.

A readiness-first Master Marketing Plan and Minimum Viable Platform to reach CPAs, financial advisors, CFOs and bookkeepers launching the day an independent tax attorney clears the offer, then carrying the same infrastructure into carbon credits on January 1, 2027.

Important. This proposal is a marketing and operating plan. It is not tax, legal, securities or investment advice, and EZZEY makes no representation about any tax outcome. No advertising, outreach or webinar registration goes live until an independent tax attorney has delivered a written opinion on the offering and approved all offer language and disclaimers. Opinion on file: [attorney or firm, date and scope to be inserted when delivered].

What we heard on the call

A clear goal, a hard deadline and an audience that multiplies itself: one advisor can bring many clients. Figures below are as reported by your team and will be documented in Week 1.

The opportunity

  • Audience: CPAs, financial advisors, CFOs and bookkeepers who serve high-income clients, with $250K to $500K+ income as the sweet spot.
  • Model: advisors refer clients, and commission averages about $20K per client, varying by deposit.
  • Reported close rate of about 90% on one-on-one calls, and about five clients per working advisor.
  • Reported volume of $60M last year and a higher run rate this year.
  • About 17,000 existing leads, plus a nurture email series already written.

The constraints

  • A December 31 credit deadline leaves about 11 weeks.
  • The offer is regulated territory, so proof and claims must hold up under scrutiny.
  • Part of the lead list came from outreach, and its consent status is unverified.
  • Social proof is thin because many clients prefer to stay private.
  • The volume figures quoted so far differ and need a simple verification letter.
Our rule for this engagement. Speed comes from preparation, not shortcuts. We compress the build into three weeks and run four readiness gates in parallel, so we launch the same day the gates clear, with no ramp-up delay.

Four readiness gates before anything goes live

These gates protect ROI CFO, its advisors and EZZEY. They are also what makes CPAs and advisors willing to engage: they need to believe they did their due diligence.

Gate 1

Independent tax attorney opinion

What we recommend the opinion covers

  • The structure and the tax treatment described to clients
  • Referral fees paid to CPAs and advisors and any disclosure duties
  • Solicitation and securities questions raised by the offering
  • Approved marketing language, disclaimers and prohibited claims
Blocks: all ads, emails, landing pages and webinar registration.
Gate 2

List verification and re-permission

What we do

  • Audit the 17,000 records by source: opted in, referred, outreach, harvested
  • Keep consent-based records, exclude harvested addresses
  • Verify deliverability and remove bounces and risky addresses
  • Send a re-permission invitation to aged records, with clear unsubscribe and sender identity
Blocks: any email to the existing list.
Gate 3

Real, consented proof

What we do

  • Collect testimonials from actual advisors and clients, in their own words
  • Written consent, and disclosure of any material connection or compensation
  • Text first, video as soon as possible
  • Names or first name and last initial, with titles verified
Blocks: testimonials appearing on any page or ad.
Gate 4

Verified volume letter

What we do

  • Request a simple one-page letter from ROI CFO's independent CPA or administrator confirming prior-year and year-to-date volume
  • With a $130M year, this should be quick to produce, and it ends the mismatch between the figures quoted so far
  • Cite only the letter's figure, dated, with any projection labeled as a projection
  • Rebuild the credibility page around verified facts and remove any outcome promise, including “pay nothing in taxes”
Blocks: any volume claim on a page, ad or email until the letter is in hand.

We launch the day all four gates clear. Everything is built and staged beforehand, so launch is a switch, not a project. Target gate date is October 30, and if the opinion arrives sooner, we launch sooner.

The advisor acquisition engine

One system that finds professionals, educates them, qualifies them and hands the best ones to a personal call. The same system is reused for carbon credits in January.

Verified inviteConsented list, LinkedIn, search and referral partners
RegistrationConfirms profession and client profile
WebinarEducational session, one or two a week
Qualified callOne-on-one for advisors who fit
Partner onboardingMaterials, tracking and follow-up

Audience map

Four segments (CPAs, financial advisors, CFOs and bookkeepers) plus family offices, each with its own message and objection list. Week 1 deliverable.

Landing and registration pages

A webinar page for professionals, with an upfront qualifier on client profile, so the right people self-select and the wrong ones leave early.

Webinar system

Platform, reminders on the 5, 3, 2 and 1 days before, replay, and a no-show recovery sequence built from the nurture series you already have.

Ad sets and video

LinkedIn, search and retargeting concepts built around education, not outcome promises. Short videos built on real advisor voices.

CRM and tracking

Every registrant tracked from source to attendance to call to client, with weekly reporting by segment and channel.

Credibility page

Rebuilt around verified facts, led by the volume verification letter. Shows how the process works and what advisors should evaluate in their own due diligence.

Message rules for every ad, page and email

  • Educational framing, written for professionals doing due diligence.
  • Disclaimers and approved language from the attorney.
  • No guarantee of any tax result and no “pay nothing” claims.
  • Every figure sourced, dated and labeled as actual or projected.
  • Testimonials are real, consented and disclosed.

Real testimonial collection guide

Ask advisors and clients to answer in their own words. We never write their answers for them.

  • What concern did you have before looking at this?
  • How did you evaluate it, and who did you involve?
  • What did you learn about the process?
  • What would you tell a peer who is considering it?
  • Is there anything we should disclose about our relationship?

The timeline: build now, launch the day the gates clear

Build and stage everything in three weeks while the gates run in parallel. Launch happens the day the gates clear, then webinars run weekly. Ad spend is released in tranches after launch.

What $1M in commissions requires

At about $20K per client, $1M is roughly 50 closed clients, not hundreds. Move the sliders to see how webinars, advisors and clients produce that number. The defaults use the 90% close rate ROI CFO provided, with a cautious two clients per advisor, below the five they reported.

Scenario inputs

The 90% win rate is the figure ROI CFO provided. Live results from the first webinars refine these assumptions with real data. Clients must complete funding before December 31, so late-stage conversions matter less than early ones.

Budget: about $177.5K, inside your $200K ceiling

An estimate split across execution, infrastructure and ad spend over three months. Ad dollars are released in tranches after the gates clear, so unspent dollars stay yours.

CategoryMonth 1Month 2Month 3Total
EZZEY execution

$0$35,000$50,000$85,000
Monthly total$37,500$64,500$75,500$177,500

The independent tax attorney's fees are a client cost, paid directly and outside this budget. Ad spend begins the day the gates clear. If that is earlier than planned, the ad tranches move earlier with it, and if later, they move later.

How the dollars are used

  • About 38% execution: strategy, build, webinar production, optimization.
  • About 14% infrastructure that is reused for carbon credits.
  • About 48% ads, the only portion that is stopped or redirected based on results.

January 1: carbon credits

The audience, pages, webinar system and CRM carry over. Carbon credits get their own readiness gates and their own attorney review before any campaign launches.

Planned in Week 12 and funded separately.
