For most Small Businesses, managing their accounts can be a chore...

● Time consuming → frustratingly slow and tedious

● Confusing → difficult to find what you need

● Inefficient → lots of manual entry/double-handling

● Expensive → pay an accountant to use it!

● Inaccessible → must run on Windows

● Neglected → no invoice = no payment

Marketing StrategyWhat customers are saying:

● eLEDGER is easy to navigate, with a superior layout to other products

● It's nice having everything altogether

● This is basically the cost of a few cups of coffee, every month

● The most important aspect is my workflow – don't make me think!

What still needs to happen:● Disrupt the existing dependence on

accountants for the ordinary day-to-day stuff by breaking it out of the “too-hard-basket”

● Educate sole-traders/SMEs on these fundamentals, emphasising that “workflow” aspect

● Build some brand recognition and a presence in the marketplace

● Match competitors' Direct Bank Feeds automation feature
