Before
Paul George Hair has been established in Poynton for 28 years. Before I stepped in, the salon was doing its own accountancy. That works for a while. As the business expanded and got busier, the finances became more technical and advanced: VAT, a growing team on payroll, year-end accounts, and the question every salon owner eventually asks about whether the structure is still right.
[Add two or three specifics from Paul and Angela: what was taking the time, what worried them, what prompted the call.]
What I took on
Now I take care of their VAT returns, tax returns and year end, as well as their payroll. The records are kept up to date through the year rather than rebuilt at the end of it, the deadlines are mine to worry about, and when a question comes up Angela rings me.
After
The business can focus solely on growing and enjoy the extra time on their hands. [Add a result if there is one: tax saved, hours saved a month, a decision the numbers helped with.]
“Josh's approach is a breath of fresh air. He is very confident and no question is too much. He will give me his time, and I feel like I can phone him up about the slightest thing. He's really approachable and really helpful. I can't thank him enough for everything that he does for me.”
