I work with the MDs of SME businesses and help them improve profitability and cashflow through common sense financial management. I focus on the following areas: profit improvement cashflow good bookkeeping understandable financial information embracing useful technology Get these right and you have a good foundation to grow profitably in the future. I'm the founder and MD of Blue Dot Consulting Limited, a chartered accountancy practice in South West London which I set up around the turn of the century. I've never hired colleagues who have only worked in accountancy firms, preferring the real-world experience of finance profesionals who have worked in real businesses - perhaps like yours. Much of what I've seen and learned over the years is reflected in my blog. You won't find much that's typical accountanty stuff on there - but you might find one or two things that are helpful.
