What do you love most about your job?
I love getting to know my clients and their businesses and helping them achieve their goals. I also love numbers and problem solving - so trying to get the figures to balance is fun for me!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have previously run my own publishing business which I sold on when it grew. I spent some time studying and doing voluntary work whilst looking for my next business idea and I decided, since I love numbers and I'm interested in business, that bookkeeping would be the ideal business for me.
Why should our clients choose you?
I make it my business to get to know and understand your business so that I can provide the services that you need. I'm qualified and experience and I'm licenced by the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers. I only take on work I am qualified and experienced in.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes I use cloud accounting software so that I can access your accounts remotely to do your work. I've found remote working works really well and it means you don't have to worry about finding me a desk. However, I only take on clients in North East England so that I can work at your premises if needed and visit you for meetings.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I do more remote working now and can meet on video chat. If clients are happy to do their own scanning and filing of paperwork I can work totally remotely.
