Hassle free

The Online Bookkeeper

You do it

You pay to use the software and do your own bookkeeping etc. In this instance you only need our help to comply with the statutory reporting requirements with HM Revenue and Customs and Companies House. However you know if you have any problems you can call on us to help as we will be able to login to your account and help put things right.

We do it

You send us your paperwork electronically or by post, we process it, we would recommend on a monthly or quarterly basis (although annually is an option), and then we can provide you with management information, complete your VAT returns and then sort out your year-end requirements. Whilst we will be producing management accounts giving you regular information you can always access your accounts at anytime from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. If you don’t feel regular management accounts are for you and that you would prefer us to process everything in one go at the end of your accounting period and do your accounts and tax return then that can be done.

We do it together

With both parties having access to the system you can do some or all of the bookkeeping work and then we can process month end or quarter end journals to produce management information and VAT returns and be ready to produce your year-end accounts and tax returns quickly.
