Paul was amazingly helpful for me and my mum. During the lockdown we put out a plea for help on a local facebook page as we had some internet issues and the team kindly came to our rescue. Their advice was bang on the nose and were very informative. Our issue is now resolved, we cant thank you enough, if this is how they do business then we highly recommend.

Wonderful and professional service. I was amazed at the efficiency and speed Alison sorted my zoom issue and ,in addition to that, restored my screen layout : all done remotely which, in the current climate of social distancing, was fantastic.I fully recommend Silicon Bullet in Hartwell.

Alison was recommended to us for her skills and knowledge with Xero and Sage.
After my discussion with Alison, my client commissioned her to help us with a tricky situation we were having with a Xero template and formatting issue for one of their clients.
After a brief explanation of the issue and run down of what we wanted to achieve, she was able to rectify the errors and has been able to produce a final template which their client has now approved.
If you are having any technical issues with Xero, we cannot highly recommend her enough.

Ali is really patient at teaching Xero, I hate computers. Ali was really good at explaining how I get to each section and exactly what to click on so I could write a step by step guide for myself, and was patient when I needed her to go back over things.
It's great to know I can message and ask for help too.

Alison helped me get started on xero accounts software. She knew exactly what parts to show me at my beginners level, she was very clear and easy to follow as we clicked on different menus etc. She completely understood where I was coming from and what I needed to know and I felt very confident that I can now get started and do the job on xero. So helpful!!!

I made a schoolgirl error & recently rather foolishly attempted some DIY PC support with the aid of Google. It did not end well! Not everything you find on google is good advice!! Instead call for the help of an expert! I can't recommend Paul Mead of Silicon Bullet highly enough!! This is the second time he has helped me out of a sticky IT situation; working on my PC via remote access. He is super efficient and a pleasure to deal with! Thank You Paul your assistance on Monday morning! You are a legend! On both occasions he has initially helped me out of regular office hours; on a Friday night & Sunday evening! Where else do you get that service! Recommended to me by my friend; fellow 4Nr & Forever Business owner; Alison Mead. #4Nworks #4Networking #Grateful #HappyMonday #HappyAndHealthyMe

Alison gave me an absolutely gold tip.
“Pay ALL the vat element from invoices paid to you into a separate account. This will mean you WILL always have enough to pay your quarterly bill without stress”
I’ve done this for the coming quarter and feeling very calm.

Very clear guidance, loads of patience & a good knowledge of accounting is what I received from Alison. My Accountant closed her business so I was left with fining another one I could trust or take the plunge & do it myself. I decided on the latter as I am a Sole Trader with a small turnover. I turned to Alison to guide me through the Wave Accounting system. I had a session where she talked me through the system & had a go at it myself. It was a confidence issue for me & Alison was great. I have tried the new system on my own & am managing it well which shows how well I was taught. Thank you Alison.

If you need any help navigating your way through Sage I can't recommend Alison highly enough. Answered all my queries with licensing quickly, simply and with humour and had the licence information over within minutes. Additional advice over installation from Paul and good to go on the customer site. Superb service! Thank you both very much! :-)

Alison dug me out of a Xero hole recently! She literally dragged herself out of her sick bed to resolve my issue with the Northampton Fencing Club accounts the day before the AGM. Saved me a whole load of pain and embarrassment!
Alison's always so cheerful and helpful, even when she's ill. That's truely going above and beyond for her clients.

I came across Alison's company last year through a Google search when I was looking for a Sage Accounts trainer. I found Alison to have a thorough understanding of the subject and she is able to convey that knowledge professionally but in a way in which I, as a newcomer to bookkeeping, could easily understand. Alison is extremely personable, very patient and always contactable if I have a problem I don’t know how to resolve. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alison's services.

Alison from Silcon Bullet spent 3 very enlightening hours with us yesterday in our office. We have all learnt a lot but more than that we are all more confident to try and explore new things today. Thank you Alison for sharing your amazing knowledge with us and at a level we were able to understand. A very pleasant and rewarding way to spend a morning and one from which us Sage users in our office have benefitted enormously. Falcon International Bags Ltd Northampton (Shirley)

Thanks for today Alison. Despite using Sage for several years you showed us lots of tips that we were not even aware of and we will be putting the suggestions you made into practise. I am sure it will make our bank reconciliation a lot less time consuming, which is a great bonus!
