Starting a business is a huge decision to make for anyone, yet more and more entrepreneurs are deciding it’s time to begin their business journey.
If you are considering starting a business, or you have a business that’s in its infancy, our expert accountancy services are here to support you every step of the way. We help you manage your finances, cashflow and bookkeeping to get your business off the ground and lead it towards success.
FINANCES FOR START-UPS
It can feel like a minefield when you first start out as a new business owner. Sadly, many new business ventures fail, often because businesses aren’t prepared financially. You might find that you have a good business idea, but when it actually comes to setting up and running a business, you’re just not sure what is required. Having a solid financial framework in place before you even start trading is going to be an enormous benefit and help you be ready to face the future.
We have helped many new businesses through the early days and seen them go on to achieve success. We work differently to other accountants, going beyond just taking care of your finances: we help take care of your business as well. We work in consultation with you to offer you the support you need, at those times when you need it the most.

A: A business plan is the perfect starting point. We can provide you with a template or give further guidance, depending on what you require.
Q: Do I need to take out financing?
A: If required, we can put you in touch with specialists. If you have questions about financing, we have contacts who can help you access grants. We can also help you with applications to funding bodies.

A: Yes, this is a legal requirement for limited companies. For sole traders it’s optional, but it’s usually advisable.

A: This will depend on your trade. It might include options such as travel and telephone bills – we can advise you further.
