Accountants in Hammersmith – local and remote

Although a lot of bookkeeping work is done these days in the cloud and, in principle, can be done from anywhere, there is a huge benefit in a local relationship.

It could be:

we can pop in to help your team with their bookkeeping and finance work
if you outsource your bookkeeping to us, we can do it at your place or ours, most likely a bit of both
we can meet at your office or ours to discuss your numbers, profitability, cashflow or anything else that’s important and requires a face to face meeting
we know someone we can recommend that provides services that you’re looking for – and vice versa

So, if you’ve come this far then read on. Find out more about how we can help your business.

The importance of good bookkeeping

Good bookkeeping is at the heart of every successful business.

Bookkeeping must be correct and complete if it’s to be useful and this is a skill like any other professional business service.

Any errors and omissions will mean the financial information you rely on to run your business will be wrong.

Embrace the technology which continues to improve bookkeeping – making it more efficient and accessible – and, if you need it, call in some outside help.

But the key message is: get on top and stay on top of your bookkeeping!

And don’t overlook that outsourcing your bookkeeping might be a sensible approach, leaving you and your colleagues free to focus on your business.

Profit from experience

Our focus on profit and improving profitability comes from the fact that we’ve all worked in businesses, not just in the accounting profession.

From the get-go we’ve embedded ourselves in clients’ businesses to help them be more profitable looking at issues such as:

customer profitability
proof of profit
using accounting software as it should be
improving margins – so you make more money from every sale

Sure, there’s a theory to all these things, there’s a text book, but there’s also the real world.

The competitive, uncertain, wonderful, disappointing real world – the one that doesn’t owe you a living.

That’s we we work, where we help businesses to get results, it’s where our blog was written and it’s where we can help you!

Annual accounts and tax

Someone, perhaps a bit like you, told us that “the year-end accounts process should take care of itself“. And, you know what, she was right.

So long as your bookkeeping is up to date and there is regular management information that’s being produced, reviewed and acted on then the annual accounts and your tax liability should be pretty straight-forward to produce.

Of course, your accounts don’t need to be submitted to Companies House earlier just because they are ready, but it’s a job that’s done and you have clarity about how much corporation tax you need to pay.
