I would like to introduce myself.

Abacus Bookkeeping Services
    Sally Broughton AICB CB Cert
www.abacusbookkeepingservices.co.uk

I am setting up as a bookkeeper, and am finding it hard to get clients.  I have sent letters to local Chartered Accountants and have placed an advert in 3 local parish magazines.  I have joined the local business link and am hoping to go along to a networking meeting soon.

I am treasurer for the local Domestic Violence Forum.

Any Advice on getting my name and business out there to start up would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and good luck to everyone

I setup a year ago and stuggled to start with and did the same as you and sent letters to companies and signed up for local magazines and yell and none seemed to work.  I eventually decided to pick the telephone up and contacted a few local large Accountants in my area and set up meetings, to discuss how I could help them.  2 days later I received my first referral from one of the Accountants and I now have no spare time to be able to take on any more work, my workwas gained by referral from the accountants and word of mouth from the clients I had started with.

So best advise, pick up the phone and talk to people, you find most letters will go in bin, but people will talk.

Hope this helps
