At Do Business Network, we are always proud to welcome professionals who bring genuine expertise, a wealth of practical experience, and a real passion for supporting the small business community. We have been incredibly busy growing our community recently, and Fran is one of seven fantastic new members to join the network over the last few weeks. We are absolutely delighted to introduce one of our newest members, Fran Williams, founder of Steeltown Business Services.
For many small business owners, keeping the books in order can feel like an exhausting, time-consuming chore. It is often the task that gets pushed to evenings and weekends, leading to those stressful, late-night scrambles before a deadline.
Fran’s mission is straightforward: to take that pressure away entirely, allowing business owners to reclaim their time and focus on what they do best.
Over Three Decades of Financial Expertise
Fran is an all-round bookkeeping expert with over 30 years of hands-on experience. Her background spans a massive range of industries, meaning she understands the unique challenges faced by sole traders, partnerships, and SMEs alike.
Her experience runs deep:
Long-Standing Expertise: Fran has been working with Sage Accounts since 1990, back in the days of DOS—a true testament to her dedication and longevity in the profession.
Xero Certified: Alongside her traditional expertise, Fran has excellent knowledge of cloud accounting and has recently become Xero certified. As a Xero Business Partner, she offers modern, efficient support for both new and established users.
More Than Just Data Entry: Fran believes that tidy books are just the starting point. Her depth of knowledge ensures her clients benefit from clear financial insights, helping them spot trends, understand their numbers, and make informed decisions about their business.
Tailored Support for Growing Businesses
Whether you need a quick monthly check-in to ensure everything is on track, or more regular weekly support to manage invoicing and cash flow, Fran’s services are entirely flexible and tailored to your specific needs. She is particularly brilliant at working with busy owners who struggle to find time for day-to-day financial admin, as well as businesses looking for a periodic review to ensure their systems are running smoothly.
Fran is incredibly approachable, down-to-earth, and passionate about getting to know the people behind the businesses she supports. We are thrilled to have her as part of our community, and we know her expertise will be an invaluable asset to the network.
