As you can see, we have a new format to the email newsletter with me as editor; although some of my senior colleagues will "guest" edit on some occasions.

First of all, it is no big secret that A4G have been a little bit short-staffed over the past few months. We were probably victims of our own success for a while and I would like to thank all of our clients who have been patient with us this summer. The good news is that we took on three new faces on 2nd September including Matthew Finch ACA, a qualified accountant, with considerable experience in practice at one of our competitors, and we expect to be back up to date with everything very soon.

This year, we have put many hundreds of hours into improving our systems and training our team, in order that we can be as efficient as possible from now on. We are totally committed to giving all our clients the financial help that they will need as the economic conditions worsen.

With the credit crunch turning to a full-blown recession, efficiency is what every single owner-managed business strives for and with this in mind, each of the next 12 email newsletters will contain a tip on how your business can succeed in the recession. With this in mind, please find attached a free article entitled "surviving the credit crunch."
