The First 60 Days!

Today marks the 60th day we have been in business since opening our doors on Monday 6 July 2009! In that time, we have been implementing and refining our systems in order to deliver an accountancy service we are proud to put our name behind.
We have designed our procedures and processes to achieve best practice systems based on our combined years of experience in working in small, medium and Big 4 accounting practices. Now we have the systems in place, we are looking for more clients to help with their accounting and financial needs.

In summary, Judsons Financial Management Services is a boutique business services practice designed to meet the needs of the busy business owner.

We essentially focus on 3 core services for our clients:
1. Part time CFO or Financial Controller work;
2. Management Accounting and Business Improvement Services; and
3. Taxation Consulting.

While many accounting firms offer the same services as we do, here are some differences that may interest you in choosing or recommending our firm over others:

1. Fixed Fees – We agree with our clients up front on the cost of their services. After years of doing what we do we know what a job should cost and we can determine an amount for our services that we are prepared to stick to in order to provide the business owner with certainty as to their accounting fees. Our philosophy is that the business owner should not be surprised when they get their accounting bill. We are prepared to spread our fees over the year if that suits the particular business’s cash cycles.

2. Free phone calls – Because we don’t charge on a strict time cost basis, we don’t charge separately for phone calls in or out. This can cover simple things like simple MYOB queries, tax questions you may have and general catch up calls. If there is further advice that is required a separate fee arrangement can be made for that particular service. It’s like a variation to a building contract for a set sum. Again, like before, we will quote on the cost of the service before commencing any work.

3. Technology – The trend for most accounting practices is to do the accountancy work in the office and for clients to come to them. We like it the other way around. We use laptops and 3G connectivity to try to have our office travel with us. This means we can work with clients face to face to answer queries, cut down on delays with answering questions via emails and faxes and build up solid relationships with the people in your business.

These are just a few of the differences that we try to live by when looking after our clients affairs. I’m sure there are other differences that will exist between how we do things and other accountants.

Should you wish to consider a new accounting firm for your own business affairs or know of people and friends who are also looking for a more personalised accounting provider, we would be grateful if you could contact me or pass our contact details on to your friends. Our website has our contact details and more information for you to ponder should you wish to know more about us before making any decisions. http://www.judsons.com.au/.
