Accounting for Start-Ups

If you have a great idea for starting a business but need some help, give us a call. 

While it may feel that there are other, more pressing tasks to get on with, it’s important that you have a good understanding of what is required. Our expertise will ensure you have the essentials in place before you become fully emersed in the day-to-day. Too many entrepreneurs have discovered too late, that they’re actually operating at a loss rather than a profit. It’s unlikely you decided to start a business so you could learn more about accounting, so it makes sense to hire a specialist and get on with what you do best.

We also understand that starting a business can be both exhilarating and terrifying. Talk to us about providing ongoing mentoring to guide you through the myriad of challenges and opportunities that will pop up along the way.

Our start-up accounting services include:

  • Determining the best structure for your business: Sole Trader, Partnership, Limited Liability Company or Trading Trust

  • Preparing a business plan, cash flow projections and budgets

  • Assessing your finance requirements

  • Advising on the best sources of finance and developing the necessary proposals

  • Establishing a strong working relationship with your bank

  • Completing registration procedures with the Companies Office, Inland Revenue or Customs and Excise

  • Dealing with company secretarial issues

  • Setting up an appropriate financial recording system for your internal use and complying with statutory requirements
