Getting Started

Starting and running a business is exciting, rewarding but hard work. Managing your finances might be something that makes you feel anxious or just not a good use of your time.

We’re here to help you at every step of your journey. We can get your finances under control and help you build your business.

Start Up

You've got a great idea, but don't know where to start, and need help getting going.

  • Your focus will be on developing and delivering your service or product, building your brand, identifying your target market and finding customers.

    You might be unsure about what you need to do to set up in a compliant and efficient way. We can help you set the right foundations to build your business.

    We can explain simply and clearly what needs to be done to get your business set up, and allow you to focus on the things you love.

    We can help you build a plan for your first year in business, to help you manage costs and cash flow, and give you clear targets to work towards.

    It’s likely you’re looking to employ staff, rent a premises, purchase a larger stock order, build a new sales channel, all of which are really exciting but daunting at the same time.

We can keep you compliant with the latest accounting and tax regulation, ensure you meet filing deadlines to avoid penalties, and offer advice to optimise your position.
