What people come with most often
Six pieces of work in this area. You can start with any of them — the review shows what you need now and what can safely wait.
Accounting for sole traders and small firms
Documents and banking on us, the calculations and the signature on the partner accountant. One door instead of three contractors.
Read more →Documents and source paperwork
Photos, email, e-invoicing — send it however suits you; we file it and tell you what is missing.
Read more →Tax and filing reminders
A calendar of your dates and a reminder well before, not on the last evening. This page is informational.
Read more →Taking over from a previous accountant
We accept the books against an inventory: first you see what is there, and only then you decide.
Read more →What the service includes
The scope in words: what is always included, what depends on the tax regime, and what is not included at all.
Read more →Management accounts
Profit by line of business and cash as of today — numbers for your decisions, not for the tax office.
Read more →Payroll and HR records, stocktaking, warehouse accounting and international standards are the work of specialist partners; we choose the person and hold the overall picture. We do not provide audit at all: it is a licensed activity and we will not pretend otherwise.
When people come to us with this
The four conversations people most often arrive with.
The books exist "somewhere"
Somebody keeps them, something gets filed, and questions arrive once a quarter and always at a bad moment. We start by looking at how it actually works.
You do it yourself between other things
The banking app copes while the business is small. Then come the documents it does not see and the dates it does not remind you about.
You are parting with your accountant
The person leaves, and the knowledge of where everything is leaves with them. Taking over the books is a separate job, best done before they go.
You need numbers to decide with
Statutory accounts answer to the state, and you cannot steer a business by them. That takes a different set of books — and it is here too.
What stays with you afterwards
Nobody chases paperwork
A document enters the books from a photo or an inbox, not from a folder marked "I will bring it next week". What is missing, we say — you do not have to remember.
Deadlines stop creeping up
Your dates are kept in a calendar and the reminder comes with room to spare, not on the last evening. We do not sell this as a "we will file it for you" service.
Every part has a name against it
It is clear what we do, what the partner accountant does and who signs. That is the difference between a commitment and a promise.
A clear order, no surprises
1 · A conversation
Half an hour about your business: what you do, which tax regime you are on, who keeps the books today and where exactly it hurts. Without this any review turns into a form.
2 · The review
We look at what is actually there: documents, the ledger, the deadlines, the loose ends. You get the picture and an order of work — what we take on at once, what gets fixed along the way, what the partner accountant handles.
3 · The work and a short summary
We work through the order, and once a period you get a short summary in plain words: what was done, what is coming, what looks odd. Not "all fine" but a list.
The figure is named in a quote for your task, once it is clear how many documents come in per month, which tax regime you are on and what state the books are in. There is no price list here on purpose: a "from" figure without the scope behind it is bait rather than a price, and you cannot compare two offers by it.
Look at the work, not at the words
These are the numbers of the agency as a whole, not of this area alone. Each carries its source and the period it was taken for: the code takes them from the work log live, not the author. Client numbers do not appear here and never will — somebody else's finances are private.
preparing data…
Where the figures come from
- tasks accepted: result checked and taken
A task is accepted once the result has been read, checked and taken. There is no second word for this on the site: “accepted” and “completed” mean the same thing.
- median task time: from brief to accepted
A typical task: half of the tasks in this window went faster, half took longer. This is NOT an average: one long task cannot pull the number up, so the median describes an ordinary day more honestly.
- business lines running at the same time
How many different businesses the agency runs at once. A line counts if it has at least three tasks in the log; internal test runs do not count.
What we do ourselves and what we do with partners
We do this ourselves
The routine around the books is our own working setup: receiving and sorting source documents, a calendar of payments and deadlines, reminders, draft payment orders and a regular summary in plain words.
Management accounts are a working setup of ours too: profit by line of business, cash as of today, a regular report to the owner. We steer by these numbers ourselves.
We build this out for you
Connecting your data sources — bank, till, accounting software — depends on what they are: sometimes a day of work, sometimes a month. We name the time after the review, not before it.
We run this with a partner
Bookkeeping, tax calculation and the preparation and filing of returns are done together with our partner accountant. A person with an electronic signature signs and files — a machine does not sign for people.
Payroll and HR records, stocktaking, warehouse accounting and international standards go to specialist partners under our watch. We do not provide audit at all: it is licensed, and promising it would be a lie.
The bookkeeping itself is done by our partner accountant, and we say so plainly rather than hiding it in a footnote. We remain your single point of contact: we pick the person, set the task, watch the deadlines and answer to you for the result. The contract names the performer honestly — no "we do everything in-house".
What people usually ask
Who exactly keeps my books?
Will a machine file our returns?
Our books are in a mess. Would you take us on?
Why are there no prices on the site?
Let us look at your task
Tell us about the business: what you do, which tax regime you are on, who keeps the books today and what you want to change. We answer during working hours and say where it is honest to start in your case.
We call back during working hours. No figures, statements or documents are needed at this step — words are enough for the first conversation. The company field is optional; if you fill it in, we look up the public records beforehand and come prepared.
