Starting any business is hard, especially a standalone business. So, David Rundle bought into a Cartridge World franchise and hasn’t looked back. He wanted to be part of a franchise system as they come with more support, turnkey systems, and marketing and sales processes, things he wouldn’t need to worry about. What he didn’t factor in was the time needed each month to do the monthly bookwork, GST, and organising his end-of-year financials, let alone time to look at budgeting or cash flow planning.

“Running a franchise is really busy and with an ever-changing market I knew I needed some help to take away the burden of doing my accounting myself,” says David. “So, I contacted my local SBA who have all the expertise in accounting, payroll, and taxation I require, and I have been with them ever since.”

“SBA has all the services I need in my business and being a franchise themselves, they are very knowledgeable and friendly. I also love that SBA is local and in my neighbourhood and is always available to help when I need it. They have taken the accounting load off me and now manage all my accounting and taxation requirements, so I can concentrate more on growing my business.”
