§ 06 — FAQ
Common questions, plainly answered.
Do you work with early-stage businesses?＋
Yes. Roughly a third of our practice is early-stage. We offer a founder-friendly onboarding tier that grows with you.
How are fees structured?＋
Fixed monthly retainers based on scope. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Advisory work is quoted per engagement.
Which software do you support?＋
Primarily Xero and QuickBooks Online. We also work with FreeAgent, Sage and bespoke ERP stacks where required.
Are you regulated?＋
The firm is regulated by the ICAEW, with ACCA and AAT-qualified staff. We carry full PII cover and undergo annual quality reviews.
Can you take over mid-year?＋
Yes. We handle agent authority transfers, opening balance reviews and HMRC handover — usually inside two weeks.
§ 07 — Speak to a partner
Talk to an accountant —
not a sales team.
A 45-minute conversation with a senior partner. Confidential, no obligation, and genuinely useful — even if we don't end up working together.
