Are you part of the 3AM Club?

For many business owners, the 3AM Club is all too familiar. It’s the time you wake up worrying about cash flow, payroll, or whether your numbers are telling the truth. Instead of feeling like a tool for growth, finance often becomes the source of sleepless nights.

That’s where Leonard Business Services (LBS) comes in. Based in Bedfordshire, LBS isn’t a traditional accountancy practice. They’re an embedded, outsourced finance team that partners with ambitious SMEs to bring clarity, calm and control to the numbers that matter.

“We’re not here to churn out tax returns or tick boxes,” explains founder Lorna Leonard. “We work alongside founders, MDs and CEOs to help them feel back in control of their business. It’s about giving them confidence in their decisions and headspace to grow.”

With a track record of supporting businesses across multiple industries, LBS has guided clients through acquisitions, international expansion, and multi-million-pound turnover milestones. Their approach is both strategic and deeply human: translating financial chaos into clear next steps while understanding the emotional toll finance worries take on leaders.

Visitors to this year’s Your Business Expo Bedford will have the chance to experience this first-hand at the LBS stand. As part of their exhibition presence, the team are running a Finance Healthcheck, a simple three-minute quiz that diagnoses whether your business finances are in the “green, amber or red” zone. It’s interactive, insightful, and designed to spark conversations that matter.

“It’s not about gimmicks,” says Leonard. “It’s about giving people a taste of what clarity feels like. Many founders don’t realise they’re carrying unnecessary stress until they see how much calmer and more confident things could be.”

The LBS stand will also feature their signature “3AM Club” theme, capturing the worries that so many business owners silently face. It’s a chance to engage with finance in a way that feels different: less about spreadsheets, more about strategy and support.

For SMEs in Bedfordshire and beyond, LBS is becoming known as the outsourced finance team you didn’t know you needed until you have them. And then you won’t want to run your business without them.

Find Leonard Business Services at Your Business Expo on 9th October 2025. Take the three-minute Finance Healthcheck.
