OUR BEGINNINGS

Together, Peter and Paul founded The Wow Company in 2004. They believed accountants should be at the heart of building Beautiful Businesses.

The heartbeat of Wow has always been about great people working together. Over the years, we’ve built a team of smart, caring, passionate and fundamentally nice people. A team that loves helping people achieve their dreams and being part of the exciting journey of growing a business.

WHERE WE ARE NOW

Our brilliant team helps clients to build Beautiful Businesses day after day, year after year. We're incredibly proud of the service we deliver and the impact our support has on our clients. These days, we specialise in agencies, consultancies and tech businesses with 8-80 staff.

What it’s like being a client

Making the switch to Wow has proved to be one of the best business decisions we’ve ever made. The transition from our old firm was seamless and as well as managing our day to day accounting, the ongoing strategic advice they provide is a vital part of our stability and expansion. Thanks guys!
James Cotton
MD & Founder of Onespacemedia

There’s something about Wow. A ‘something’ that goes beyond being just our accountants. They always do that bit extra. My Wow accountant connects and empathises, and understands what it is like when your head is in panic mode, and you’re worried about the numbers. She is patient too. She explains the finances to me again and again without complaint. It’s the reassurance I need that lets me focus on what I do best. It’s a great feeling to have experts like this by your side. Wow really are amazing.
