Maxine Hart, Operations Director, shares her experience of working with Angela to maximise the impact of Xero within a fast-moving business environment.
“Where most of us see problems, Angela sees solutions. She has a such a skill – and so much enthusiasm – for getting to the heart of what it is you want to achieve with Xero and your accounts. Not only does she show you how to get tasks done with less time and energy, she brings heaps of new ideas to the table for how you can use Xero to get more clarity of insight for your business. What’s more, she doesn’t bamboozle you with ‘finance-speak’. Angela is the friendly, anti-grey suit wearing, human face of Xero.
“She’s set up a tracking system on Xero which enables us to view our profit & loss report as 3 different ‘snapshots’; by consultant, job type and advertising source. The huge advantage for us is that we have so much more information at our fingertips, with very little added effort on the invoice input.
“One of the reasons many companies don’t analyse information is all the effort it often takes to organise it. Tasks like that just eat time; time that could be better spent on key objectives. With Xero and Angela’s help, the information becomes organic and simple to access.
“We’ve managed to identify areas of advertising where expenditure did not match expectations and we’ve since saved money. Angela really gets to know your business and what you want to achieve with Xero, then she helps you get there – and makes it seem like fun along the way.”
