New business advice

Start up as you mean to go on

And we will account for your success

Setting up a new business? You'll need all the help, support and encouragement you can get. And we're here right by your side to give you just that. Setting up a business can be exhilarating and terrifying in equal measure, but there are some things that you can't afford to get wrong. We will help you to set up your company structure, get the right systems for your business and keep your accounts firmly in order. Not only that, we will take on the role of trusted advisor, giving you the full benefit of our expertise and experience and empowering you to make the decisions that will secure the success of your enterprise.

How to structure your company?

Before you even set your company up, you have to decide on its structure. Will you set up as a Sole Trader, Partnership, Limited Company or Limited Liability Partnership? Then, will you be VAT registered or not? What record keeping and accounting systems are right for your business? What are your forecasts, budgets and Key Performance Indicators?

We can show you what you need to do to become a sole trader or we can set up a Limited Company for you, giving you advice on share structures, and shareholder agreements. If you are forming a partnership, we can make sure it is set up correctly and fairly, with an eye to the future. Whatever company structure you decide is best for you, we can ensure that it is set up to be as flexible as possible in the future, as your business grows and changes.

We help you to sort all this out and lay solid foundations for the growth of your new business. We help you to prepare your business plan and work out your break - even point. We can even help you obtain the finance you need to start your business.

If you are just starting out, call us today for a free consultation and we will help to make your business dreams come true.
