  • There was no clear business plan and what needed to be in place as the business grew.
  • Not carrying out enough due diligence when investigating the market.
  • Running out of money, due to poor cash flow management.
  • No experience running a business and/or the ability to delegate.
  • No Marketing Plan or a badly executed one.
  • Expanding too fast or remaining too rigid in your business approach.

We have been with Strathmere Accountants since our formation and have gone from strength to strength. The level and quality of advice received, in our opinion, has played a major part in our success. They are more of a Business Partner than our Accountant and they seem to take a genuine interest in the development of our business.

Devonshire Systems
We decided to change Accountant because we seemed to paying a lot of money for, what we thought, was a very basic service. The change over couldn’t have been simpler.

Very efficient and helpful about sums it up.

We qualified for their Free Consultancy offer and made a saving of nearly £6,000 on consultancy costs. An Accountant giving money back!
