You Don’t Need More Leads, You Need Better Conversations- With Kwame Agyei
Nov 27, 2025 Season 4 Episode 64
James Donovan

Most accounting firms are burning cash on cold leads and broken outreach funnels, but what if that’s not your real growth problem?

In this episode, I sit down with Kwame Agyei, founder of Appoynt, to reveal what actually scales firm growth: community, relationships, and real conversations. Kwame´s built a global team across Africa and shares how showing up in person has done more for growth than any automation ever could.

We talk about:

  • Why cold outreach flopped (and what to do instead)
  • The underrated power of in-person networking
  • How US firms can tap top-tier talent from Ghana (and why it works)
  • The mindset shift from operator to builder
  • Why your first hire overseas is more about culture fit than cost

This isn’t about theory, it’s what’s working now for firms trying to scale lean and smart.
