That’s the million pound question. At least it was for Jamie Anderson, TV producer and son of Gerry Anderson - the creator of classic, and legendary, British science fiction series Thunderbirds. 

And the answer? Crunch of course! With our CEO and founder Darren Fell being an avid fan, it was a no Brain(s)er

Thunderbird saying "use Crunch"

That’s right, Crunch is now helping the Thunderbirds in their ongoing mission to save the world, from whatever perils may appear in each weekly episode. 

We’re supporting Brains at Thunderbirds HQ by bringing their financial administration into the 21st century. With bespoke cloud-based software and expert advice from Chartered accountants.

Jamie was seeking a capable ecommerce accountant for the official £1m+ ecommerce website, www.gerryanderson.com, that he manages in celebration of the work and legacy of his father’s work. 

Where they stock and sell all of the products and collectibles derived from the television productions Gerry Anderson created such as Stingray, Captain Scarlet, Joe90, Thunderbirds and others.

After spotting this intriguing lead coming in, Darren, slightly star-struck, asked the sales team if he could speak to Jamie himself. They had a long chat about all things science-fiction puppetry related, and even spoke a bit about accounting too : )

At the end of which, Jamie was persuaded that Crunch was the right company to handle all of his accounting. And decided to sign up to our Scale ecommerce package.

Which offers clients all of the technology to handle the live feeds from their ecommerce system, all the other related software, and the specialist ecommerce team with a dedicated Senior Specialist Chartered Accountant running all of their accounting needs with expert advice. Plus year end accounts and all UK tax requirements. 

So far Jamie is highly impressed with the technology that Crunch has provided and what it can do for his business. Dillis Qin, our Head of our Small and Growing Business section, is currently building the accounts for gerryanderson.com and then looking to add further services later.

What it means for Crunch

This is an exciting opportunity for Crunch work with an influential and well-regarded brand. And clear evidence that the investment we’ve made in developing our online accounting products is now enabling us to reach out and serve larger, prominent businesses.

We are constantly trying to find ways to improve and enhance our service based on our clients and feedback and results.

We’re looking forward to working with Jamie, and can’t wait for him and his team at gerryanderson.com to fully experience the awesome time and cost-saving benefits of Crunch’s tailored cloud-based accounting solutions.

To learn more about how you too can leverage the power of Crunch, just like a 60’s superhero on a string, speak to one of our friendly experts.
