  • 1. Choose an accountant you can trust

    Do your research and find an accountant who works with you, not for you. It’s important to check qualifications, industry experience and reviews. Good accountants will make you feel confident, not confused.

  • 2. Stick closer to your budget with bookkeeping

    Making sure your records are clean and clear is essential when running a business, so you can report accurately on your income and expenses. Tools like FreeAgent and Xero can save you time, money and help massively with your organisation.

  • 3. Understand what you can claim

    Whether you’re claiming for equipment, travel, training or anything else, it pays (literally) to know what is and isn’t a business expense. Keeping more money IN your business is essential.

  • 4. Pay yourself properly

    As a director/owner you have so many options with salary, dividends and pensions to name a few. Getting the right (and legal) mix can make a big difference to your take home pay.

  • 5. Don’t fear tax

    Different types of tax, including PAYE, VAT, Corporation Tax etc, may all sound scary, but once you get your head around them, knowing what to pay and when, they become much more manageable.
