Hello I’m Granger Forson
WWW.Bizsmart-Gloucesterhsire.co.uk or on LinkedIn.
This time on ScaleUp Radio I speak with Ian Morgan, the owner of MBS Accountants.
MBS Accountants is a very different type of accounting business that are based in Cheltenham. It was started by Ian’s wife in 2005, and Ian joined in 2010. As you will hear in 2015 they made a paradigm shift that has made the highly focused accounts firm they’re today, that has a waiting list of business that wish to join them.
The journey they have are still on, is to make a business that meets their needs and that of their staff and clients by putting people first.
As always we cover a lot of ground, including:
- Keeping things simple is key. Keep making things simpler and simpler.
- Treating our Clients & staff as Humans, and using our know how to guide them.
- Being Honest, is something people say, but how do you really demonstrate it every day?
What is so fabulous about this conversation with Ian is how a crisis point created a pivot in MBS accounting that has lead them all on a amazing journey of discovery & growth.
I know that you’ll get so much out of this episode.
