A Word From Our Directors

Rico

Rico Ferreira - Managing Director

I started my career in the Accounting Software, Value Added Reseller and Consulting industry in 2000 after 14 years in the corporate environment, where I dedicated myself in a range of financial positions.

Our dedication and passion to do business in the right, honest way and commitment to working hard, smart and always give a service that benefits the customer, have been key factors in the success of Preferred Solutions. Additionally, investing in top class staff and not being afraid to trust, delegate and train these individuals, has been the cornerstones of expanding the business and build excellent relationships with our clients.

My personal beliefs, when doing business, is to be honest in all things and not make money the ultimate goal. Do not sell your values. Be fair, but also take a stand when necessary. Take responsibility for whatever task you must perform and do your very best.

My advice to clients looking at accounting software is to invest in the future. View your financial and management software as tools that can optimise your business, save you money and make you sleep better at night. Do not sell future rewards for a small saving now.

To sum Preferred Solutions up in a few words: The name Preferred Solutions is synonymous with dedication, smart work, value and values.

_________________________________

I have been in the accounting reseller/consulting industry since 1996, coming from a financial software background including Syspro.

I believe that a hands-on approach and project management for large contracts has made a large impact on the business, but nothing would have been possible without my team of consultants delivering excellent work and putting in long hours of work to ensure delivery of the products to our valued clients.

Preferred Solutions is successful because of the people who work here, our team of experts. We are able to adapt to market and industry changes, due to our excellent in-house and ad hoc training sessions and a support network from senior staff to oversee larger challenges.

My approach to doing business is simple: I believe in integrity and blatant honesty. Keeping an open channel of communication with our clients and staff alike is of utmost importance. Proper planning is also essential to making any project work efficiently and within deadline.

My advice to potential clients looking new accounting software and installations is to do your homework. Ensure you comprehensively compare like-to-like products that can get the job done like it should; do not only look at price and basic information. Make an informed decision.

To summarise Preferred Solutions in a few words: We are the people who work for us.
