WORK HISTORY
Managing Director @Valued
Durham, GB
I founded Valued in 2011 with a simple belief:accountancy, done properly, changes lives.Not just balance sheets and tax returns, but real decisions for real business owners.We work with small and growing businesses who want clarity in their numbers and structure in how their business runs. Compliance matters, but good advice matters more.Over the years we’ve built a team that cares deeply about doing things properly and building long term relationships with the people we support.Alongside running the firm I spend time thinking about how accountancy can work better for both business owners and practitioners, which is something I write about openly through With Stephen Paul.

ABOUT STEPHEN PAUL
I’ve spent nearly fifteen years building and running an accounting firm. Over 900 clients. Everything from sole traders to growing businesses.That means I’ve been on the receiving end of a lot of SaaS sales pitches. I know exactly what makes an accountant lean in and what makes them switch off.Most SaaS companies sell product-first. Accountants buy relationship-first. That gap costs deals every month, and most sales teams don’t even know it’s there.I work with a small number of SaaS companies to help them close it. I’m not a consultant with a framework. I’m someone who lived on the other side of the table for fifteen years.I also still run Valued, the firm I built. Which means nothing I tell you is theory.If you’re a business owner who wants an accountant that actually engages with your business and not just your year end, we work with people like you at Valued.If you’re building or selling into the accounting market and something isn’t clicking, let’s talk.
