Murray Associates

murray associates

Sharing is caring and we do both! We share our passion and knowledge; we care about the people we work with and our aim is always to help them, help grow their businesses and improve the way they do it! I started my first business in my mid-20s, which wasn’t successful – but by then I was hooked on business. I had several careers, including hairdressing and finally ended up in financial management for the salon. After a meeting with the company’s accountant, I realised most accountants had no business knowledge and that’s where the idea for Murray Associates came from. I wanted to create an accountancy practice that did more than just prepare accounts for the tax man and Companies House. I also wanted my practice to offer exceptional business advice about growing a client's business. But before I could do that I had to study and get experience!! So finally, in 1997, Murray Associates was created. Heading up an accountancy firm, I regularly came across struggling business owners and it shocked me to see so many of them struggle. They all had one thing in common… …they were selling themselves short. By offering exceptional business advice, and our expert accountancy services, my clients quickly began referring to me as the Queen of Profit! During the last 18 years, in addition to our cloud accounting services. we've been specialising in business growth and growth boosting sessions, growth workshops and individual 1:1 consultancy to help ambitious business owners boost their business profits.

Talk Financials Ltd

talk financials ltd

TalkFinancials was established by Ted Wainman. Ted trained and qualified as an Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA) with Ernst & Young before joining JPMorgan on the Investment Management side of the business. Whilst at JPMorgan, he undertook a company sponsored MBA in the International Management of Financial Services, from which he graduated at the top of his class with merit. Since 2003 Ted has been designing, developing and delivering programmes for private sector companies (including blue chips and financial services) across a range of business needs. Whether focussed on programmes to build awareness and detailed understanding around financial drivers of their business, addressing new operational initiatives or supporting business change, Ted is experienced in working with key stakeholders within the business to construct a training program that delivers sustained change. At TalkFinancials our aim is to help individuals in corporate organisations develop their financial and business skills - to become more ‘commercially savy’. While accounting - the process of identifying, measuring and communicating financial information - is left to the accountants, managers must be comfortable with being able to read and interpret that financial information. Here at TalkFinancials our consultants help delegates learn the 'language of commercial finance' and to become more comfortable when communicating financial concepts, to use financial data when presenting operational plans and to be able to understand the financial implications of their day to day decisions. Strong business skills go beyond a developed financial and commercial understanding. We help develop strategic thinking skills together with the necessary leadership skills to deliver on that strategy. Communication lies at the heart of good leadership and good communication leads to greater persuasiveness, influence and a stronger negotiated outcome.
