From Struggles to Success

BondEsq: His Story

"My Humble Beggining fuels my relentless determination to push forward". - Founder of BondEsq Accounting and Bookkeeping Services.

His Struggle As An Entrepreneur
Shawn's journey as an entrepreneur was marked by a series of unfortunate events and a relentless pursuit to overcome obstacles. In 2014, when he received the devastating news of his mother's battle with Alzheimer's disease, he made the selfless decision to put his own dreams on hold. Shawn dropped out of university to provide financial assistance and ensure his mother received the best care and medication she desperately needed.

Despite his dedication, Shawn found himself facing financial hardships. Months went by without finding work in his desired field, but he refused to be discouraged. Determined to make a difference, he turned his attention to small and mid-size business owners, offering his expertise in accounting and bookkeeping tasks. Although grateful for the opportunity, Shawn encountered another setback as many of his clients failed to pay him for his services. This financial strain prevented him from providing the necessary care for his mother and left him battling with depression for months.

Throughout these trying times, Shawn's unwavering determination to persevere remained his driving force. He understood firsthand the struggles that individuals face when trying to make their dreams a reality. He then later attended university where he pursued his accounting qualification. It was this personal understanding that ultimately shaped his compassionate and empathetic approach to helping struggling restaurants and the food and beverage industry as a whole. BondEsq Accounting and Bookkeeping Services became a beacon of hope for those seeking expert assistance, as Shawn's story is a testament to the fact that even amidst adversity, success is possible.

BondEsq: The Launch

Refusing to give up, Shawn took on odd jobs to survive, doing whatever it took to make ends meet. It was during this challenging period that he unexpectedly found himself in the food and beverage industry. Starting as a dishwasher, Shawn's dedication and willingness to go the extra mile caught the attention of the restaurant owner. Recognising Shawn's potential, the owner offered him the role of the company's accountant.

Inspired by his success in helping the struggling restaurant, Shawn began implementing effective accounting controls that safeguarded the business from financial loss. With his guidance, the restaurant not only stabilised its operations but also achieved remarkable growth, cutting its costs by up to 35% and increasing its revenue by 60%. This accomplishment served as the foundation for Shawn's unique business model and approach to assisting other small and mid-size restaurant businesses in their pursuit of growth and success.

When it came time to choose a name that represented his brand, Shawn found inspiration in his admiration for the James Bond movie franchise and its iconic character. Combining this admiration with his own name, he created BondEsq Accounting and Bookkeeping Services. The name encapsulated his dedication to providing top-tier services while embodying the spirit of intelligence, sophistication, and unwavering support for his clients.

Today, BondEsq Accounting and Bookkeeping Services stands as a testament to Shawn's resilience and passion for helping struggling businesses. His personal journey and triumphs serve as a testament to his ability to empathize with clients, make tough decisions, and provide the necessary guidance to help them overcome challenges.
