We are a family run business that runs a retail shop manufacturing and selling products for people with back pain.

Our previous accountants just about managed to file our accounts but they were always late and we really hadn’t much of a clue as to the ins and outs of it. They never worked to a business plan and we were all coming up with an arrangement of different marketing ideas but never as a unit.

We were referred to Alan McGrath of Aurora Accounting & Business Services some months ago and the difference is unrecognisable. They talk to you in a language that is understandable. They take all the stress out of the financial headache by explaining to us step by step on all these matters.

They have regular meetings with us to help focus our attentions on creating new business. They also do up business plans so that we all now know our goals and then they work with us to achieve them. They are always at the end of the phone if you need them.

I cannot recommend Aurora highly enough. They are the visionaries in their market and have let us concentrate on what we do best, thank you.

I wish to introduce to you Alan McGrath and Aurora Accounting.

I have been their client for almost a decade,  during  all those years I always find myself properly looked after.

Their view was always oriented to the Business growth, helping in analyzing our point of strength and weakness.

During the years they have always been there when needed for all tax, financial or business problem, advising me to find the best working solutions.

I am happy to recommend them to you and I am sure they will be of great help for all your business needs.

I met Alan McGrath in 2004. Alan explained Aurora’s approach and it just made so much sense. My business needed the financial control support and discipline that Aurora delivers. It was a new and refreshing approach and my accountant at the time did not have the structure nor the expertise to deliver this hands-on approach. I have worked closely with Alan and his team and my business has enjoyed the genuine benefits of real financial control. I can safely say that every business can benefit from Aurora’s engagement and I strongly recommend both the team and the approach.

Alan and his team came on board with me a little over 2 years ago while still in the in the depths of the recession.
During their time here we have improved the reporting models and reporting time frames. We now chase 7 key KPI’s on a weekly basis and for 2016 this has moved to daily.

The cash flow management of the business has improved over the last two plus years and we have not used an overdraft in that time.
I find that Alan challenges all the budgets and the actuals to come with the results needed to run the business. We are firm believers here, in that if it is not measured it does not get done, and I find that Alan and his team share our belief.
My experience with Alan and his team is that they have a brilliant work ethic, are very accurate and are very willing to get involved to solve problems within the constraints of the business.
I believe that Alan and his team could be an asset to any business.

Alan McGrath of Aurora Accounting & Business Services was recommended to me in 2003 by a business associate. I was very interested in the service proposition as described by Alan. It was a new, innovative approach as to what a client should expect from their accountant . I have enjoyed the benefits of the financial control services and my company has enjoyed the results of a strong financial discipline. I strongly recommend Alan and his team to anyone who is serious about building a strong and sustainable business.
