- Year end readiness: avoid a rush by keeping records and decisions organised ahead of deadlines
What you get over time

- Improved tax planning because timing and structure can be considered early
- More control over cash because upcoming liabilities are planned for in advance
- Clearer decision making because you understand what is driving profit and what is not
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this service only for limited companies?
Yes, it is aimed at owner managed limited companies where director pay, dividends and company tax planning matter. If you are a sole trader, you would usually be better suited to a different advisory approach.
Do I need this if I already have year end accounts and a tax return done?
Year end work confirms what happened. Advisory support helps you influence what happens next by reviewing numbers during the year and planning decisions before deadlines.
How often will we review the figures?
Most clients choose monthly or quarterly reviews, depending on transaction volume and how fast things are changing. The review frequency can be adjusted as your business grows or settles.
Can you advise on how to pay myself from my company?
Yes, this is a common reason limited company owners choose advisory support. You will get guidance on salary, dividends and timing, based on your situation and compliance requirements.
What do you need from me to provide advisory support?
You will usually need to keep bookkeeping up to date and share key context, such as upcoming projects, purchases or staffing plans. The better the data and communication, the more practical the advice becomes.
