Essex Chartered Accountant John Forbes Wins Prestigious National Accountancy Award Beating 300 National Practices To The Coveted Title ‘Probiz Sole Practitioner Of The Year’…

Dunmow accountant John Forbes of Forbes Chartered Accountants in Great Dunmow was named Probiz Sole Practitioner of the year 2008/ 2009 at a recent Probiz conference at the Sheraton Skyline, Heathrow

The Probiz network of over 300 entrepreneurial accountants was formed to give specialist advice and exclusive financial products to clients who would otherwise have to seek advice from the very large accounting firms and pay the associated costs. Marketing products as diverse as paperless office systems to tax strategies for high net worth individuals and companies. They have established a valuable niche within small accountancy practices throughout the UK providing innovative products usually associated with larger business. Supported by stars of sport and the business world Probiz rank Theo Paphitas, Ian Woosnam and Freddie Flintoff amongst their supporters

“I’ve worked with Probiz for three years and I can confidently say that the products are excellent. We’ve been so impressed that we’ve used several of them in our own practice; Probiz HR+ for instance has saved us thousands of pounds in legal costs alone. Using Probiz digital for our paperless office solution and electronic filing has literally saved us the cost and disruption of moving to a larger office.”

John goes on to say…
“As a Probiz Centre of Excellence I am now involved in mentoring other accountants and helping them understand how these excellent products can be used for the benefit of their clients. And although I understand that many of the products are not those normally associated with accountants such as the ‘Health Enhancement’ product for example; let’s face it if companies like Cisco, IBM and a number of Premier League clubs are using it, then why can’t my clients?

I’ve spent much of my working career in business and I enjoy providing my clients with both financial and business advice and firmly believe that this is the role of the modern client focused Accountant. The award is fantastic news for the firm and will always remind me of what a great team I have here at Forbes”
