I love listening to podcasts like this. But this one is even better because Ian is an accountant and also runs his own business.
He’s just like me.
He’s not super human, which makes him believable and trustworthy and his advice is on the button
I cannot wait for more episodes to become available.
I love this show. It’s so refreshing to hear about financial management from the entrepreneurs’ perspective and not all in accountant-speak. Thanks Ian for taking the time to share what you know.
The number go to business and financial podcast. Ian will help you plucked that leaky bucket! Highly recommended. Ali Jaw
Sometimes it is stating the obvious that creates the most impact. We all have leaky buckets and in the constantly changing business environment brought about by global impacts on our businesses over the last few years we have to embrace change and plug the leaks as Ian says. I look forward to Episode 2. Thank you Ian,
