Cloud Accounting – Is it really fluffy clouds?!

Cloud Accounting – Is it really fluffy clouds?!

So, the concept that we know as “The Cloud” has been around for a few decades, I believe since at least the 1970’s, but it has really become mainstream over the last decade. I remember when working for a new IT Company back in 2006 and was introduced to “The Cloud” as a service to […]

We all know we need numbers in Business… But are you Actually using them to your advantage???

Many small businesses treat their book-keeping and accountancy costs as a nasty overhead. They consider the fact that they have to keep records as a nuisance, something they have to do to please the VAT man, the tax man or Companies House. They may only write their books up once a quarter, if they are […]

Do you stand out from the herd?

In the wild, it pays to blend in with your background: if you are a prey animal doing so prevents you from being killed and eaten; if you are a hunter, it helps you stalk and catch your prey. However, in the jungle of business it the last thing you want is to blend in […]

Are you Getting Down & Dirty to make your plan Happen?! :)

Well 2018 has arrived. Many of you, like me, made plans at the end of last year for what you wanted to achieve by the end of this year. However, too often come the end of the year we find that we have not achieved what we have planned. Why is that? Often it is due […]

Budgeting and your business plan…. Do you have one??

November 23, 2017 by Shelly

Business plans and budgets. We are at the time of year when many businesses are starting to think about their business plans and their budgets.

Why do many small businesses fail?

How many businesses fail? According to the Office for National Statistics, one third of all businesses in the UK will fail within the first three years. Other estimates put this figure even higher. It may be thought that, now that the recession is over and that the UK economy is, at last, expanding, business failures […]
