Lawrence Young

We have been providing practical business advice to businesses and their owners in Basingstoke and throughout the South East since 1999. If you own or manage a business we can help you to solve specific problems such as HR or tax issues, give you impartial advice on improving your profitability and even advise you how best to value and sell your business. We work with leading specialist firms in the UK to provide you with services, systems and processes which can improve your business profitability and tax effectiveness. At Lawrence Young Ltd, we tend to work much more closely with our clients than traditional accountants do. Consequently, we have a much smaller number of clients than most accountants have and need to be reasonably selective in the clients that we work with. To do our best for clients we need to know their businesses inside out, enabling us to easily identify problems and spot opportunities. We work with you to improve profits and encourage growth - not just to do your tax and accounts. By the way, John Ruskin is known to have defined value as follows: "It's unwise to pay too much, but it's also unwise to pay too little. When you pay too much you lose a little money, that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing you bought it to do." Natural laws of business effectively prohibit paying a little and getting a lot. It can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it's well to add something for the risk you run. And if you do that, you will have enough money to pay for something better.
