Frequently Asked Questions
When should I hire a bookkeeper for my business?
As soon as possible! Having up to date financial data of your business is critical as there is so much information there that can help you make strategic business decisions as well as help you track your progress and growth.
What is a Virtual Bookkeeping?
Virtual bookkeeping means that the practice operates online instead of working on an in-person basis. Working virtually allows me to not only serve my local community but to also serve amazing businesses and entrepreneurs throughout the UK.
What is Cloud Accounting?
Cloud accounting is where all your accounting software is online, instead of being loaded onto one desktop computer. Cloud accounting allows you to securely log in from your laptop or mobile device and allows you to check your financial data anywhere, thus eliminating the need to be at the office to view your latest data.
Using cloud accounting like Xero, allows for additional apps to be integrated to allow for streamlined
processes of your bookkeeping. This allows me to operate a paperless business.
Which Accounting software do you use?
To provide streamlined processes to my clients, I only use Xero Accounting Software.
Do you offer payroll services?
We have a specialist payroll team that look after all your payroll needs.
What is MTD?
‘MTD’ stands for ‘’Making Tax Digital.’’ It is a UK Government initiative requiring business owners to keep digital records and to use software that is compatible with Making Tax Digital for maintaining their records and submitting tax returns.
Further information and updates on MTD can be found at:

How much do you charge?
Each business is unique and has different requirements and goals. To ensure that you are getting the best possible value, we arrange a discovery call to go through all the requirements of your business and at the conclusion of that call, you will be provided with a proposal that will breakdown the fees and provide the set monthly fee for the services discussed.
Are there opportunities for in person meetings?
Most of our meetings do take place online via Zoom.
Can you do my annual accounts and tax returns?
At this stage, we do not offer annual accounts and tax return services.
