What People Say about Hingston Publishing Co

Nigel Danby
"I started using the Small Business Accounts Book (Yellow) when I commenced trading in Nov 2000. I checked out a variety of accounts books and found this to be the most suitable as it met all my requirements and was very easy to understand and use. My wife is now also Self Employed and 11 years on, I still phone every March and place an order for 2 books which always arrive within a couple of days."
Ken Whitfield
"I have used Pete Hingston's Small Business Accounts Book (Blue) each year since 1993 and have found it an invaluable aid to the running of my second-hand book business. I would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone running a small business."
