Terrarium Tribe is an online destination for all things terrarium gardening. Dan Jones founded the business to provide enthusiasts with terrarium kits, helpful guides, and unique plant products. The company also offers educational resources to help beginners cultivate their indoor gardening skills.

The Challenge

As the business grew, Dan found himself spending more and more time on accounting tasks, which detracted from his core focus on building Terrarium Tribe. The burden of handling finances manually became a distraction.

Dan recalls, “Before Crunch, I was doing all of my accounting myself and making a real mess of it. After I accidentally took a tax-inefficient salary from my lack of understanding, I realised I needed professional support.” And that’s where Crunch came in. 

Choosing Crunch

Dan realised he needed a digital accounting solution that understood the complexities of running an ecommerce and digital business. He wanted an efficient system that could take over the time-consuming financial tasks.

“With Terrarium Tribe being a digital business, having an online accountant was a natural fit. I chose Crunch initially because I was reassured by the level of support they offered. Where other accountants may impose limits on emails and calls, the ability to ask as many questions as I needed was a big pull!”

Another key reason why Dan chose Crunch is our unbeatable value. He explained that when comparing Crunch to others, we were significantly cheaper, “I was being quoted more just to process one year of books than Crunch was charging for a whole year of continuous support.”

The Crunch Difference

After making the switch to Crunch, Dan immediately noticed the difference. Features like repeatable monthly expenses and automatic bank integration helped him automate tasks, giving him back valuable time to focus on his customers and business growth.

He loved how easy our accounting software was to use, he said “I really appreciate being able to get instant feedback on things like dividend availability and estimated company tax, both of which I’d find stressful trying to calculate.” 

But it’s not just the software itself that Dan found useful, but also the friendly service, he explained that our teams “strike a good balance between personable and efficient.”

So not only does Dan save hours on repetitive tasks, but he also has the support he needs to focus on growing his business.  

Dan’s Recommendation:

For business owners struggling to manage their finances, Dan suggests Crunch as the go-to solution for digital entrepreneurs.

“If you’re needing accounting support, don’t hesitate to take your first steps with Crunch. They really helped me get back on track with my business finances, and it’s been smooth sailing ever since.”
