Company Fact Sheet


Company History

Often firms are created because someone had a great idea, an epiphany. A different way of serving clients or helping professionals become even better at what they do. That’s the story of AccelerAction.

We launched our firm in 2009, as two competitors who came together with a common idea: Create the first Kansas City firm that is solely focused on helping professional services firms with marketing, branding and public relations. After all, we spoke the language of professional services firms, having served in leadership roles with Grant Thornton, McGladrey, CBIZ and others. We knew the dynamics, challenges and underlying issues that create roadblocks for firms that need to grow. Then we built processes that are easy for technical professionals to grasp and took it one step further: We actually work with firms to implement ideas.

Our collaboration includes writers, website designers, and creative people who we trust implicitly to translate a strategy or idea into action. Working in concert, we can bring experienced talent and a proven approach to every client.
