Back in 2006 cloud Accounting software didn’t exist. In fact, the internet was barely more than an online brochure for most Accounting firms. Small businesses, micro businesses and sole traders had a difficult relationship with Accountants, typically seeing them once a year and dreading the tax bill (and the Accountants bill)!.
Lucy Cohen, at just 23 years old had spotted this pattern in her family. Mazuma was created drawing on Lucy’s childhood experiences of seeing the stress and anxiety that tax can cause for people. Growing up in a family of self-employed creatives she noticed that they were fantastic at what they did, but not so great with the tax and accounts side of their businesses. Spotting a gap in the market for low cost, subscription-based accountancy services, Mazuma was born.
But how would she get people to get their information to her every month when she didn’t have an office? Simple. With a purple envelope.
