Finding the time to grow a business and a community
Paul Ford Accountancy is a small firm offering personalised, hands-on support to businesses and sole traders. As demand grew, Director Paul Ford was spending evenings and weekends on admin instead of building client relationships. He needed a platform to simplify VAT, payroll, compliance, and record-keeping.
Before Sage, I was working long evenings and weekends to get through manual tasks. It was taking me away from what mattered most: building relationships with my clients.

One platform to do the heavy lifting
Paul chose Sage for Accountants to consolidate compliance, VAT, and client records in one place. The system’s automation features and supportive onboarding process helped him gain back valuable time. He no longer has to juggle multiple tools and now enjoys efficiency and peace of mind through a single, user-friendly platform.
Sage for Accountants allows me to focus on my clients without getting bogged down in admin.

More time for growth, more value for clients
Paul has grown his client base by one new customer each week. With admin now under control, he spends more time supporting clients and nurturing his local network. Features like bank feeds and digital receipts streamline tasks, while future plans to integrate AutoEntry and Copilot promise even more growth.
Sage has been transformative. It’s allowed me to focus on what matters most: my clients and their growth.

Director
