Ah yes, the classic ‘van-dash filing system’ - a bold choice. Receipts in the glovebox, invoices in the door pocket, and one very questionable crumpled tax document wedged under a half-eaten pasty. Martin “The Glovebox Archivist” Davies - your bookkeeping system is as wild as you are, and honestly, we’re kind of impressed. But before HMRC mistakes your van for an ancient paper-based civilization, maybe let us help? No judgment (okay, maybe a little judgment). From just £38+VAT per month, we’ll sort the chaos: 📸 Snap and upload your receipts to MazApp or 📬 Chuck them in our pretty purple envelope and let Freepost do the heavy lifting. 💻 Send invoices, connect directly to your bank account, and spend more time on actual business stuff. 👉 Ditch the dashboard disaster. Go pro with Mazuma. 💜 Get a quote: https://lnkd.in/ggTpdAN #BeautifulWeirdos #AccountingMadeEasy #NoMoreDashboardDisasters
