Chris
The smiley would infer that you have done a search on M-CLEAN UK LTD and see a set of figures that have been given to HMRC.
There are one or two people on here that are aware of my circumstances and those circumstances are directly linked to whatever you have bought (as far as reports).
I'll put it out there Chris - we made a loss last year and there is outstanding monies owed to HMRC - I don't feel ashamed to say that I very nearly closed the business down about 1 month ago and it is still very much dependant on whether we get the next two/three quotes on whether the limited company survives.
I have M-CLEAN UK still active, though it is dormant and if I do close down I will operate as a sole trader.
My accountant is an absolute wizard and there may be multiple, allowable ways of showing loss on accounts or it may just be easier to file losses, I have learnt massively over the last three months.
Through my circumstances, which were no fault of my own (medical) I continued to run a business that has expected me in multiple locations around the country, this in itself was a challenge.
M-CLEAN UK LTD is still a business that is getting self generated leads, still getting cream work coming through the door and will pull itself to a minimum, into the positive, in more ways than one.
I don't have to pay anyone for those leads, I have learned to market my business, through leaflets, through other avenues and certainly through my websites.
My works are large, multiple service and for the top 5 supermarkets, they are on trading stores, peripheral and store front, making us work directly next to the public and with the ever watchful eye of both store managers, site managers and supermarket seniority.
I work under strict guidelines, laid out mainly by my own RAMS and they are closely monitored and always read.
I operate two vans, can call in at least three other teams if I needed them and possibly scratch another two together, if desperate, so am versed in looking after the largest works.
Similarly I have just started gaining domestic work, of very high quality and will be introducing a further stand alone business of Mac Drains within a month.
The balance sheet of a business may only be a very small picture to a lot more going on but that balance sheet does not make the owner less capable or less able and certainly less of a success.
My business (es) will get me back where we were in 2012 and more, of that I am confident because I am confident in myself.
How much experience do you really have to be giving information out Chris because i've gone from buying a 20 quid ladder twelve years ago, that got me out of a £6.00 per hour warehouse job to where I am now (and I would rather be where I am than where you are)
NaCC - the offer remains, before you make a decision to purchase any kit or make business decisions, call me or ask the questions on here because you don't need to buy into someone elses money making scheme, you can keep all of the profit (or loss) to yourself.
All the best
Rob
