About The Chartered Accountants

 

Both qualified Chartered Accountants, both with a practice background and both with ideas for taking the practice to the next level …  The result was firstly, a practice with a reputation for business consultancy services in the field of marketing and business development and secondly, on a more personal note,  a great business partnership that’s still going strong (although it does have its moments).

Experience: That most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn.
– CS Lewis

There’s definitely just no substitute for experience … Over 40 years combined accounting practice experience thrown in with an overdose of qualifications, seasoned with over 55 years combined business experience in various commercial ventures and served with life’s experiences!

Our News and Views

Our interests are broad and the businesses we’ve been involved in reflect the depth and breadth of our experiences and skills.  Our News and Views can be found on our Personal Blog and also on this site. Our Personal Blog reflect our rich diversity in our interests and our approach to life.  The blog on this site is more focused on business matters.

Our Values

Honesty and integrity is important to us and we seek to practice them in all of our business dealings. Doing what is “right” and holding to our values and principles irrespective of the commercial ramifications:  If honesty and integrity is important to you, then you’ll enjoy working with us because, to us, honesty and integrity are not just marketing buzz words. They are the core of our personal and business life and it affects everything we do.

What does this mean to you?

It means that we will not recommend nor will we try to sell you anything that we do not believe in. We will not put any information on this website that we know to be untrue (and if we’re not sure, we will tell you to check it out for yourself).  We will not knowingly be a part of any business that does not deliver on its promises and guarantees.

It does not mean that we will always recommend the cheapest product – cheapest is not necessarily the best value.  We do earn a commission from the affiliate products we recommend.  Whether you choose to buy from us (and we naturally would like you to) or go direct to the originator, you will pay the same price.

Should you decide to use our consultancy services, we can assure you that we are not the cheapest. We are proud of the level of service we provide – and that service would be compromised if we reduced our fee to match that of the lowest quote. If you are seeking the lowest fee for service, we recommend that you seek advice from other consultants who service that market.
