'We feel that the franchise has now hit critical mass and is really taking off,' says Karl Sandall, TaxAssist Accountants Chief Executive. 'The benefits of having a recognised brand and a national network of accountants are paying off. We have worked very hard over the years training, supporting and promoting our network and our accountants can now offer services that a one off local practice cannot affordably offer.

'Our walk-in shop (pictured) style of accountancy practice has really featured in our growth and the franchisees have certainly taken note with many wishing they had found a shop sooner! Indeed those franchisees who bought into the concept straight away have now opened second shops based purely on the success of their first.'

Wanting to continue its growth, TasAssist Accountants is looking for another 200 franchisees to complete its network. The franchise is keen to hear from accountants, bankers, IFAs and other finance professionals who are able to aid the growth of a large accountancy practice from which they can expect to take a good income.
