Juggling with own numbers
Both partners had a vision of building a successful practice. However, the vision was not quite becoming reality.
This was causing major concern to the partners.
The business faced a number of challenges including:
- Lack of new clients – winning business was becoming difficult
- Debt was out of hand. They felt they had no control over it.
- Cash flow was extremely tight due to the issue of debt. The partners were unable to draw decent incomes due to money tied up in debt.
The challenges were mounting up and getting bigger as time went on. It felt like there was no pint running the business – there was no money left at the end of the month!
Both partners approached Shaz. One was his younger brother. And both had worked for him in their early days.

Searching for an adviser
Both partners had been impressed with what Shaz had achieved in his business career. They wanted to get some immediate quick wins and that’s exactly what they achieved.
They committed to and focussed on using the One Page Plan. This provided them with clear targets. “It helps you improve on a month by month basis” is what Haseeb commented after having used the One Page Plan for 18 months.
“Shaz was absolutely fantastic in guiding us on how to move forward. To solve problems you need to listen. And Shaz is a great listener”.
