"Barefoot has helped our small start up companies by establishing all of our accounting systems and processes. They have been instrumental in working through the maze of compliance and difficult corporate governance issues. They are more than accountants to us and their service has been outstanding. We highly recommend them to any small business."
"We have been using Barefoot as our accountants and business development advisors for the past two years. They have delivered their services in a way that suits our needs. They:

They have taken the time to understand our business and have value added along the way. We won’t use anyone else."
"Barefoot helped us out when things began to build up. Their dedicated effort made a huge difference to the business and made our lives a lot easier. It is great to have someone to ensure that our accounting and compliance is completed on time. They come to us and access to them is never an issue. Their friendly approach is great. "
"We are automotive engineers and mechanics not accountants. Barefoot make sure we can concentrate on what we know and they handle the rest. They are affordable and easy to get in touch with. "
"Barefoot ensure that our clients accounting systems and records are well maintained and in good order. This enables us at Pilot to be able to provide corporate and taxation advice with confidence knowing that we can rely on the systems and results reported to us without the need for detailed checking and reconciliations. This enables us to make our services more cost effective for our clients as we are able to focus on higher end services.
By setting up the financial reporting systems with a high level of integrity and accuracy our clients are better informed about how their business is performing and we are better able to identify areas and strategies for improvement. Barefoot have been important in ensuring that our clients are serviced appropriately at the right levels."
"Like a lot of businesses that begin as a small operation our bookkeeping left a bit to be desired; especially as we began to grow. Growth became exciting and all consuming.
Eventually we reached a point where our financials were in a mess. We had good cash flow but we realised that we could be actually missing out on so much better cashflow if we had a system which forced us to follow up on our delinquent debtors.
Enter Sean and his bookkeepers who, first of all, reset our accounting processes then instituted a process which forced us to chase our outstanding debtors.
Sean also instituted a program where we only accepted work for clients who were willing to agree to a contract involving both fixed prices from us and an agreed term for our contract to run.
From that point on we were able to budget for both outgoings and income. The freedom this simple process gave us resulted in us being able to reliably plan for the expansion we knew was warranted but for which we could previously see little prospect of funding."
