Your questions, answered

Very easy, because we do the heavy lifting. We speak to your current accountant, handle the professional clearance and move everything across for you. There is very little for you to do, and no gap in your compliance.

Around 95% of our clients are on Xero, because we find it the most user friendly. It also means our whole team are Xero experts, so we work efficiently and spend more of our time actually helping you rather than wrestling with software. We do support clients on other systems too, particularly where we run an in-house finance function from your office, or provide outsourced FD and advisory support.

Yes. We look after the whole transfer to Xero for you, and we give you as much training as you need to feel completely comfortable. You will not be left to work it out on your own.

No. We work with ambitious business owners across the UK using cloud tools like Xero. We are proud to be local for clients who value face to face time, and for the in-house finance function we come into your office.

Most accountants review your year after it has finished, hand over a set of accounts, a tax bill and their invoice, and leave you little time to pay. That is the standard, and it has never really helped the business owner. We build in three month reviews to check you are on the right path, tax efficient and heading in the right direction, claiming everything you can. At nine months we forecast to your year end with an estimate of your corporation tax, up to a year before you pay it. That is true proactive help, because we can then tell you what to do to reduce your tax and move the needle on your finances.

Yes, through year round planning rather than a rushed conversation after your year end. Our three and nine month reviews are where we spot the opportunities early, all completely legitimate.

Yes. Our outsourced FD service gives you board level commercial insight and someone in your corner on the big decisions, without the cost of a full time salary.

Your monthly fee includes fair usage for advice, questions, calls, training and support. Anything well outside the norm is agreed as a new piece of work up front, so there are never any surprise bills.

We work on a fixed monthly fee, tailored to your business and agreed with you up front, so the cost is spread across the year and you always know where you stand. No surprise bills, ever.

We use technology and AI to remove the manual, repetitive work, which gives us more time for the conversations that actually help you. It makes us faster and more accurate, and your data stays secure throughout.

Yes. You will have a client manager who knows your business, backed by a full team so there is always cover and the right expertise on hand.

Yes. We are AAT licensed accountants, working to their code of ethics. Regulated, ethical and trusted.
