Glenn and the Avery Martin team have managed our business finances since we started in 2001. They have always been a step ahead and have anticipated our needs bringing in new systems to help us manage our growth.
I will do my utmost to avoid any bookkeeping task and am more than happy to hand it over to these guys.
I have recommended AM to many of my friends and will continue to do so.
I was badly advised when I first set up my electrical company as was told to take a large salary out of the business which meant I paid a lot of PAYE upfront along with the CIS payments I was suffering on my income. This left cash flow very tight and it was difficult to meet my obligations for other taxes. Glenn restructured the company switched my drawings to dividends and not salary and also managed to get the company onto gross payment terms for CIS. This turned the company around and allowed us to take on bigger more profitable contracts. Glenn is always available to take calls out of hours and visits me in my home to discuss any issues I have over a coffee. They have had a big impact on the success of my company and would certainly recommend them to others.
My bank manager recommended me to go and see Avery Martin when I was thinking of starting up in business. We managed to get the finance we needed and the rest is history.
I was with a large “specialist” contractor accountant but felt I was not really well looked after and was just 1 of a 1,000 clients on their list and felt like I was dealing with a call centre style approach. I approached Avery Martin after a recommendation from a work mate and wanted someone with a more hands on approach.
They advised me to switch to Xero bookkeeping software which is great as they work with you and mentor you along the way. The regular contact you receive is ideal and I do take advantage of the out of hours calls and meetings which were not available with my last agent. I receive twice the service for half the price from Avery Martin. Their service represents great value for money and I have since recommended others to them. I also took advantage of the 3 year fixed fee offer which I think is very fair in these unknown economic times.
