Three New Associates Start With Mazuma
16th February 2009
Mazuma are delighted to announce the launch of three new Associates offices across the UK.
Mazuma is an accountancy practice serving the needs of small businesses and sole traders that has steadily grown into a national business since its formation in Cardiff in 2006. The franchise, The Mazuma Associate Scheme, was launched in October 2008 and three new Associates began operating in February 2009 across the UK.
Sarah Howell and Michilla Mason operate from East London and are delighted to be the first Mazuma franchise operating in the UK's capital. Sarah comments: "Michilla and I had always wanted to run our own accountancy business. I spotted Mazuma in the monthly AAT magazine and I was very impressed by what Mazuma had achieved. I love the concept that Mazuma offers and when I saw the Associate opportunity I decided to grab it with both hands! Michilla and I are extremely excited to have this opportunity. In our first two days of business we acquired four clients - I think that speaks for itself!
Ally O'Meally-Watson is covering the South of Cardiff and The Vale of Glamorgan area from her base in Cardiff Bay. Ally comments "Mazuma will provide the Cardiff Bay area, Penarth and Barry with a simple, trouble free accountancy service that will give business owners monthly updates on their company's finances, enabling them to make better business decisions - especially during the recession. The Mazuma opportunity had given me the chance to run my own business, but with the support of a modern and innovative business model".
David Wallace is operating in the ambitious new city of Milton Keynes and comments: "Mazuma is a breath of fresh air, and the most exiting development in Accountancy services in years. All clients have to do is send us their paperwork monthly, then their management accounts are returned promptly and we deal with the rest. After spending 25 years in the profession, I believe this will change the image of accountants. Other accountants send you accounts months after the event, from Mazuma it's actual, now, live and fresh. As Milton Keynes is amongst the fastest growing and most entrepreneurial areas of the UK, Mazuma's style, philosophy and service are an excellent fit".
The three new Associates join after the successful trial of the first Associate that took place over two years, based in the North of Cardiff.
Sophie Hughes, Director of Mazuma GB who operates the franchise, comments: "We have been overwhelmed with the interest that we have received since the launch of our exciting franchise. It is a unique offering and provides people with the opportunity to operate their own business under the vibrant and nationally recognised brand of Mazuma". Lucy Cohen, Director of Mazuma GB adds: "With the launch of three new franchisees across the UK and more due to launch in early 2009, we aim to reach and better our targets of launching 12 franchisees in 2009. Despite the recession, franchising is set to boom and the Mazuma franchise is a terrific opportunity to take up at this time".
Various areas of the UK are still available and separated by postal regions and population in the areas. You must be a qualified accountant and hold (or be able to apply for) a practising licence through your accountancy body before you commence trading as a Mazuma Associate. We hold extensive training courses on how to build, manage and grow your business and market yourself when you become an Associate so you are not "thrown in at the deep end", and we are on hand for you once you are an Associate to help you along the way with tips and guidance.
If you, or someone you know are interested in this exciting opportunity please call us on 0845 310 5654 or email us at info@mazumamoney.co.uk to request a prospectus and application form.
