Seofon Business Services launch new Administration Services Department
7th July 2022Building on ten years of business success, Seofon Business Services have now further expanded its offering to include the creation of a new in-house Administration Department.
Did you know that in a survey conducted by the Federation of Small Businesses, it was found that on average a small business owner spends around 33 hours per month on administration? That is almost four times the amount of time that is spent on new business development – or 8 hours and 50 minutes to be exact! And, in needing to spend around 4 days per month just on business admin, 55 per cent of those surveyed then stated that they believed this onerous task was instrumental in holding back the growth of their companies.
We set up Seofon to be a ‘single port-of-call’ support hub for local and regional businesses from the start. With this in mind, we have always facilitated an extensive array of key business services, either as part of our in-house provision, or with the assistance of strong referral partnerships with trusted business associates. Our diverse range which includes Bookkeeping, Payroll, Tax Returns, Business Mentoring, Website Development and Human Resources, has always included Admin Services, but not always as a direct in-house facility.
So… with our tenth anniversary year currently in progress, we are delighted to now have our new in-house Administration Department being brilliantly set-up, managed and overseen by Mel Gillman-Davis. For us, being able to grow our admin support side of the business with Mel is an exciting step for Seofon. And, having known and worked with Mel for several years, we have already experienced the wealth of skills and knowledge that she will be infusing into our new administration provision.
Mel’s business ethos and hands on experience is a perfect fit for us. Having worked across an extensive range of business sectors such as Airline, Pharmaceutical, HR, Recruitment and Chartered Accountants, she brings with her over 20 years of practical work experience, which just enhances her administration qualifications even more.
Seofon is an expanding business, has an ever growing in-house team, and plans are afoot to bring more of our service areas fully into the fold as suitable opportunities present themselves. We know that, currently, many business circumstances are continuing to change and, as a result, each company’s newly emerging needs are becoming more prevalent. Our highly experienced team and robust business model allows us to quickly respond and provide exceptional business support for all of our clients’ new and established operational requirements.
Our new Business Administration department encompasses everything a small and growing businesses will need on a regular or one-off basis. Covering all aspects of business admin, such as the collation of meeting notes, data collation and management, recruitment administration, meeting scheduling, the maintenance of office records and the formatting and editing of presentations, we can now assist with many of the time consuming day-to-day needs a business has. And, our mentoring clients will also benefit from the advice and support this professional team will impart when it comes to best practice business admin solutions.
Seofon assists small and medium owner-managed businesses, and our qualified business administration team has the hands on experience to comprehensively support, and further enhance, the bookkeeping and numerical services we already offer. Currently, the post lockdown onslaught is frequently throwing up a myriad of unforeseen and time-consuming challenges for all businesses. As a result, an increasing number companies are recognising the drain on staff time and the need for either temporary, or ongoing, support to help them over the bumps. We are here to help!
