£2.2 Million seminar at St Mellion Golf & Country Club
Our seminar was a great success, with over 40 requests for extra work and a satisfaction score of 82% from the attendees. There’s still an opportunity to book your consultation, at which you’ll get a huge bundle of helpful tools for a really good price of £250, plus VAT (that’s £200 after tax relief!) We are planning another for February 2015, so if you feel that you missed out on the seminar this time, you can contact us via the website, to be placed on our waiting list – or alternatively you could contact our offices.
We get a buzz out of ‘Making lives better’!

£2.2 Million Seminar

Paying for ourselves
Two clients will be happy to see their accountancy fees paid for several years to come… A small client received a tax refund of over £2,500, and our fee was only £500. After tax relief of £100, his tax free refund pays the next 6 years’ fees! AND If we cannot meet a client’s needs, we like to use other clients (if they provide a good quality service). It’s paid off for one client, who has just secured a deal, which we brokered, that will generate enough income within two years, to pay our fees for the next 19.9 years!! (Steve would love to have rounded it up, but that would be cheating!) Seriously though, if you’d like to be with a firm who look out for opportunities for their clients, as well as delivering tax free cash, we’d love to chat to you.
