Why Melo? It's a good question.

Here's what our clients say about working with us...

“We admittedly had got a little bit caught in a trap of doing things how we’d always done things and not really seeing ways we could improve. (Melo) helped us challenge that. They brought in their wider knowledge from the industry, from other firms and showed us what could be done differently. We not only looked at processes and workflows, but we actually looked at the entire client journey to enable us to give a better service to our clients.”

Sarah from Informed Financial Planning

“It’s allowed us to really dive deeper with our clients. Where we’ve stopped before is what Melo has allowed us to interrogate further and have more meaningful client discussions that’s allowed us to give far better advice”

Joe from Informed Financial Planning
