Why is it so important for businesses to hire a great accountant?
Hiring the right accountant from the get go can safe you a lot of time and money. Accountants these days do more than just the accounts they can be a sounding board for your business ideas and your company's vision. Partnering with someone that understands your business and can help you identify the risks that maybe lurking is vital.
What do you love most about your job?
I love business and meeting new people, there are so many different ways to do business. But what I love most is being able to add value to my clients, if only be it a small control procedure that can safe them time.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have wanted to start my own accounting practice since I started my journey as an accountant or albeit admin clerk at an accounting practice. I finally jumped and started my own firm in the beginning of this year as I needed more control over when and where I can meet clients.
Why should our clients choose you?
There is a lot of brilliant people out there and it is difficult to say that you are the best, therefore I would rather say I believe that you should have a good relationship with your accountant and need to be comfortable to ask questions and not feel silly. I love having those conversations with my clients and teaching them what I know.
