When you initially sign up with us, we will;

• Help you with your business plan, where necessary
• Assist you in obtaining a business bank account – if required. We have relationships with several banks that allow an account to be formed within 48 hours with free banking for 12 months and a nominal fixed fee thereafter
• Offer advice on the best trading structure for your business – do you need to switch?
• Advise on changing the ownership of the company or partnership to make it as tax efficient as possible
• Advise you on whether you need to change to a limited company – we can form it for you
• Advise HMRC that your business has changed and will complete the relevant forms to avoid any nasty penalties
• Give you advice as to whether you are obliged to be VAT registered or whether there is an advantage in voluntarily registering
• Set up a payroll scheme for you and register it with HMRC
• Advise on how to keep your accounts more efficiently and access to our online bookkeeping software, Xero (additional fee applies). If you choose to use other accounting software, we are also happy to offer advice and even training if required.
