Not everyone is created equal when it comes to climbing the Corporate ladder and that's OK!

We sit down with Founder & CEO Simon Allsop who has more than two decades of experience in helping businesses improve their financial management - There's not much he hasn't seen in his space!

A Chartered Accountant, he began his career in the audit division of global accounting firm KPMG. After years of climbing the corporate ladder, he saw an opportunity to make a real difference to small business owners and went out on his own.

Simon shares the good, the bad and the ugly of leaving the 9-5, to setting up his own businesses, the importance of a good network doing the things you love, that first paying customer, exiting a business and starting all over again ALL whilst being a father.

Strap in!
