Sound familiar?

The spreadsheet that ran the business now runs your patience down.

Most small business owners build a sheet that grows messier every month. Then one day it breaks — and nobody on the team knows why.

#REF! #VALUE! #N/A

Formulas throwing errors

One change cascaded and now half the cells are red. You can't trust the numbers anymore.

Copy → paste → repeat

Hours of manual entry

The same report, every week, by hand. It should take minutes, not your whole Friday.

Tab #14 of 14

A sheet nobody understands

It grew organically and now only one person gets it — and they just left.

Messy data

Numbers that don't add up

Duplicates, typos, inconsistent formats. You're making decisions on data you don't trust.

When the AI gives up

Asked ChatGPT for the formula. Now you're 14 prompts deep and it's still wrong.

AI is brilliant — until it isn't. It loops, it confidently breaks your sheet, it "fixes" one thing and snaps two others. When that happens, you don't need another prompt. You need a human who's actually seen your file.

🔁 The loop you know too well

This still gives a #REF error

Questions

Before you ask

I'm not technical at all. Is that a problem?

Not even slightly. Most of our clients run a business, not a spreadsheet. We handle the technical side and explain things in plain English.

How much does it cost?

We charge £95+Vat per hour for small jobs. A project that takes a day or more attracts discounts - though we often like to break it down into manageable chunks. No fix, no fee.

How fast can you turn it around?

We like to plan work out, but if your project is urgent we can often juggle to meet your needs.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Files are handled confidentially and deleted on request once work is complete. Happy to sign an NDA.

What versions of Excel do you work with?

All modern versions — Microsoft 365, Excel 2016 onward, and Google Sheets too. We'll match whatever you already use.

Let's get your spreadsheet working again.
