Today, I returned to work after 3 1/2 amazing months adventuring around South America! The trip co-incided with 10 years working with Kelsall Steele and finance4chiropractors.

We started our trip in Rio, Brazil, visiting Iguazu Falls on the way into Argentina. From Buenos Aires we headed south to Perito Moreno, a huge advancing glacier and to the coldness of the southern most city in the world, Ushuaia.

Zig-zagging north through Argentina and Chile, hiking in the Torres del Paine National Park (Chile), wine tasting in Mendoza (Argentina) and horse riding on the Argentinean pampas were a few of the things we filled our days with!

Bolivia was the next on our list visiting the largest salt flats in the world, Salar de Uyuni, the highest capital city in the world, La Paz, and the biggest expanse of rainforest in the world, the Amazon. They were all incredible trips!

With an internal flight to Colombia, we ended our trip with just over 3 weeks to explore the colonial towns north of Bogota and relax on the Caribbean coast before flying back home to a rainy London last week!

Awesome adventures but good to be back! Look forward to speaking to you soon!

We have recently introduced a new service under the finance 4 chiropractors banner, offered by a well established company MyRuby. My Ruby provide telephone services and diary management for chiropractic practice owners who need admin support whilst they treat patients, but who don't want the costs and hassles associated with employing a full time member of staff.

"85% of new patient callers won't call back if there call isn't answered"

This professional, efficient solution means you can have reliable admin assistance without having to deal with:

- sickness / health issues
- HR issues
- holiday cover

Ideal for a small business and / or if you are working alone, for a low monthly cost, based on usage, your own "MyRuby" assistant will help you to:

• Answer patient telephone calls regarding consultations, procedures and follow up
• Manage appointment setting and diary management online
• Liaise with patients and medical insurance companies to handle payment and treatment queries

We received an email today that may be of interest to chiropractors in the Surrey area.

Dear Therapist

We are sending you this email to introduce our health fair to you on 11th October 2009 in Tolworth, Surrey.  The aim of this fair is to promote natural health to the local population. To excite the public we have invited leading speakers, such as Patrick Holford to the event.

By natural health we mean therapies that use natural methods (i.e. no drugs/pharmaceuticals) to resolve health issues or to promote good health.  We require that all the therapies and products in the fair are based on natural products.

As a therapist in Surrey, how would you like to be a part of a health fair that puts you in front of hundreds of local prospective clients for £75?  We aim to get just 1 therapist from each surrounding area (Kingston, Epsom, Wimbledon, etc) to our fair, with a maximum of 5 therapists in each field (hypnotherapy, reflexology, osteopathy, etc), so you, as an exhibitor, would have little or no local direct competition.

As mentioned above we are also holding a number of lectures on different therapy fields, and so far have invited Patrick Holford, a leading spokesman on nutrition and mental health issues, discussing “Food for the Brain”.  We have also asked Paul White, Chairman of the National Council for Hypnotherapy to come along and talk about “The Benefits of Hypnotherapy”.

We have just opened the fair for exhibitors and have already filled 30% of the stands. If your diary isn’t as full as it could be and you could manage to see more clients each week, DON’T MISS OUT. 

Please take a look at our website at www.naturalhealthfair.co.uk for how you can benefit from this cost-effective marketing opportunity or simply give us a call on 020 3397 0702.

Kind regards

Over the last 48 hours, we have seen a great number of lenders increase their shorter term (2, 3, 4 year) fixed rates.

This is due to an increase in swap rates (effectively the cost of borrowing) over the shorter term.

A word of caution, if you are considering a fixed rate at this time, the key is to act quickly

Some lenders are giving us 2 days notice, some are giving us 2 hours. There are some good deals around, but need to be taken up  quickly.

We hate it us much as you do, but I am sure many of you remember you have to at least consider Form P11D every year to declare any Benefits in Kind given to employees.
 
In the age-old habit of moving the goal-posts and creating extra paperwork (as if we all have nothing better to do), the very useful dispensation that is granted to avoid reporting items like your GCC membership when you are in a Limited Company, is being reviewed.
 
This is on a case by case basis but all employers are being invited to complete Form P11DX otherwise they may consider the previous dispensation invalid.
 
Apparently they also do not like any round sum allowances or personal payments made on company credit cards as there could be a 'private' element to the sums involved.

Chiropractic Practice For Sale in Windsor

This chiropractic practice was removed from the market last year but it is now being re-marketed at a new price of £150,000 (dropped from £180k) to take into account the current economic climate.

The practice owner is now located in Spain so this practice is very much ready to be taken over straight away. This demonstrates that the practice runs successfully as a business that is not reliant on one specific person. Currently, there is a senior associate at the clinic but a buyer could either choose to take this position themselves or (as the owner is currently doing) manage this practice for afar with just a little input.

The practice owner has started his own venture in Spain so is keen to put all efforts and finances into his new life hence the reason for sale. 

Please contact me in the first instance to receive the valuation report, up to date accounts or to arrange a viewing. It is also worth noting that this is a multi-disciplinary practice, mainly chiropractic, but the new NHS contract for physio's will have a positive effect on referrals from GP's and the practice in general.

Friend and client of the firm, Dr Neil Osborne, had invited us up once again to lecture to the final year students at the AECC. We are always more than happy to accept this as, for us, it is a very rewarding trip that gives us the opportunity to compliment the student's technical knowledge with a business 'heads-up' for the months ahead.
 
Having travelled up the day before and staying overnight at Chateau Osborne, Mike Hutchinson and myself were raised early with a king's breakfast and sent packing towards Parkwood Road. Despite the promise of a 9.30am Tax and Business lecture there were around 50 - 60 students in attendance all of whom were keen to understand the perils of the UK tax system. With the hour and a half available we did our best with the subject matter and gave them but a small insight into Taxation. Whilst students were obviously focused their exams, it also seemed very obvious to us that, given the economic climate, they were very motivated to find placements upon qualification.
 
I was also fortunate enough to be shown around the new clinic afterwards. It was much larger than I was expecting and already seemed busy and vibrant. From what I understand, this should now increase graduates to 100+ a year at the college. Personally, I look forward to further increased vibrancy and awareness this will bring to chiropractic in the UK.

My money Valentine
Sweet economic Valentine
I make you smile with my ravings:
"Your books are applaudable!
Your knowledge is laudable!”
Oh you are the saviour of my savings

Well, I know that they call you geek

The numbers that you speak...

So, don't change a thing for me
‘Cos I count on your accountancy
Stay, money Valentine, stay

The Bank Of England have just announced a further reduction in the base rate to 1%      
Aside from this being yet another record low, it is believed to be the final reduction in rates.

Whilst many mortgage holders will be rubbing their hands with glee as they move to standard variable rates, it is now essential for people to discuss their future mortgage requirements in order to capitalise on the ‘golden deals’ which will come along over the next few months.

Whilst lenders have not issued details of any future deals at this time, there is no doubt that any good product will be highly subscribed.

We already have a priority list of those clients who wish us to seek a good deal on their behalf as they seek to move from the variable rate over the next few months.  In order for you to benefit from this service, you will need to speak with one of our advisors as soon as possible in order to ensure they have everything ready to go when the balloon goes up !

New article published regarding chiropractors and the credit crunch

Exert below:

......As a healthcare profession though, chiropractic is well positioned. Anyone with a spine is a potential customer so, Tax Inspectors aside, there is a population of 60m people ready to become your clients. And chiropractic is still in its infancy in the UK,  with still only around 2,500 registered GCC members, that's an opportunity to build your patient list from an average 24,000 people.

So where's the problem?......

To follow soon - Our 5 recession busters

In the papers over the weekend it has been reported that millions of people could be left out of pocket due to an online tax error on the HM Revenue and Customs website.

Those people who are self employed and filed their own tax returns online are not only being asked to pay the "back tax" for the previous year but also the full contribution towards next year known as the "payment on account". The "payment on account" is actually due in two installments, half in January and half in July however the error on the HMRC website has calculated and shown to pay the full amount now so many tax payers will be making some of their payment 6 months early.

Particularly with the ecomony as it is, having to make this early tax payment could stretch tax payers even further than they are already.

If you think you may be in this situation and would like us to have a look at your tax statement then please get in touch:

HMRC have been negotiating with tax payers who are stuggling to pay their tax bills. Tax payers have been able to pay over several months and at an interet rate sometimes as low as 3.5%, which is lower than most overdrafts.
