Adam Hyde & Reuben Styles Peking DukAfter a quick chat with Jacinta, we decided Calculated Matters was a far better fit. We’ve discovered that Jacinta and the team strike a perfect balance between the day-to-day tasks of keeping the books organised and regular government paperwork up to date while also providing excellent support for more intense periods and insightful strategic guidance when it’s required. Jacinta runs a very productive business. She utilises technology without being overly obsessed with the latest app or service every time it’s released. The bottom line is that after switching to Calculated Matters, we experienced a significant boost in service levels. I would highly recommend Calculated Matters to anyone, but particularly to those in the entertainment sector.
