The Focus Practice Approach

Approach to Helping Businesses

The Focus Practice seeks to add value to businesses by the provision of advice and active involvement not normally provided by the majority of accountants.

The Focus Practice will review the operation of a business and, where fit, challenge the underlying financial framework.

A totally focussed approach, seeking to maximise the business worth on a sustainable and financially sound basis.

Totally objective advice is given always, with absolute integrity.

Graham Potter is personally highly driven, requiring successful outcomes from all work carried out.

Approach to Remuneration 

Initial discussion free of charge with no obligation.

Thereafter mixture of time based charge plus success related reward to be negotiated on a case by case basis.

The approach is flexible but always tailored to maximise the alignment of the interests of the client with those of The Focus Practice. A detailed engagement letter is agreed up front, setting out the objectives of the work and the timescales.

There is no ongoing commitment or other form of tie in to The Focus Practice on the part of the client save where expressly required by the client and agreed.

There are normally no conflicts with the existing relationships between clients and their accountants, as the input provided by The Focus Practice is not normally provided by general practice accountants. The Focus Practice is not in a position to provide the type of services normally provided by general practice accountants.
