Chris is the founder and owner of Petworth Enterprises Ltd, a dynamic company he established over a decade ago. Today, it serves as both an investment vehicle and the holding company for a range of business interests spanning consulting, recruitment, and investments.

After a successful full-time career in the telecommunications sector, Chris launched Petworth Enterprises Ltd to pursue a more entrepreneurial path. He has since built a reputation for helping businesses break out of their comfort zones and expand into new and emerging markets.

Petworth Enterprises reflects Chris’s strategic mindset, combining deep industry experience with a forward-thinking approach to business growth and investment.

The Challenge:

With multiple ventures to oversee and critical decisions to make, Chris needed his finances to be the one area that just worked. He wasn’t looking for a complicated system or time-consuming admin. He needed a streamlined, stress-free solution that would give him confidence and clarity without pulling focus from running his businesses.

The real challenge was finding an accounting partner that could keep pace with his needs: one that combined reliable technology with human support, especially during high-pressure periods like year-end and tax season.

Choosing Crunch:

Chris says, “Crunch is simple and easy to use, the software just works.”

Having worked with Crunch for over a decade, Chris has found the support he needs during the most critical times of the year. "Crunch are great. I have been with them ten years, and this time of year is always stressful—it’s my year end and tax year end as well. They just take the pain away."

With Crunch, Chris doesn’t have to worry about chasing numbers or getting bogged down in tax deadlines. The combination of intuitive software and expert support frees him up to focus on his business ventures.

Crunch isn’t just a tool, it’s a trusted partner that’s been by his side for the long haul.

The Crunch Difference:

For Chris, Crunch isn’t just an accounting platform,  it’s a trusted financial partner that helps him run his business smarter, leaner, and with tax efficiency at the core.

What Chris finds especially valuable is that Crunch goes far beyond basic bookkeeping. The team provides tailored, strategic advice on financial and tax matters, helping him make informed decisions about how to structure his income and run his business in the most tax-efficient way possible. “I can talk to an accountant and discuss options on efficiently getting paid myself and running the company in a tax efficient manner,” he explains.

Chris values more than just the smart technology Crunch offers, it’s the expert human support that truly makes the difference. Whether it’s a quick question or a complex financial decision, Crunch’s experienced accountants are always on hand, ensuring he’s always in the know.

Jamie’s recommendations:

For Chris, simplicity and reliability are key when it comes to managing his business finances. “The software just works,” he says, highlighting how Crunch has helped streamline his accounting without unnecessary complexity.

That confidence has made it easy for him to spread the word: “I have recommended a number of other business owners to use it as well.”

With Crunch, Chris knows he has a dependable system and support team behind him.
