How we work

Accountants are typically difficult to reach and difficult to understand.

we make our team accessible and our client managers are great communicators ensuring you can really understand your business finances, maybe for the first time ever!  

Putting your understanding of your business first

Unfortunately, financials aren't routinely taught to us. Neither in school or in professional education. Then we start a business and think we will be fine but actually it's more complex than it seems. Plus if you ask most accountants for help they use loads of jargon and make you feel stupid.

However, accounting is the language of business and as a business owner, you need to be able to read, speak and understand it. We will make it our mission to truly help you understand your business financials and performance without feeling stupid.

We use visual reports and video analysis to make understanding your business performance easier than you have ever known before. Whats more once you can speak the language you'll want more and we can support with that too.

If you are making sales of at least £500k or will be very soon then we have the systems and processes to help you overcome the most common challenges.

Common problems include:

1

Sorting accounts
on the weekends

2

taking hours to
Raise invoices

3

Losing Bills
And receipts

4

A lack of understanding of
company’s finances

5

Feeling like you’re winging it
and out of your depth

6

profit on paper,
but not in the bank

7

Living a nice lifestyle but can’t
afford it

8

Losing financial control &
feeling like a fraud

9

Being one bad month
away from bankruptcy
