Bookkeeping services and VAT for Dunstable and Aston Clinton

Bookkeeping and VAT

Bookkeeping covers such a range of tasks depending on what you need.  Some people need help with making payments, others need the numbers crunched.  We can work out where you need the help most.  All paperwork will be up to date and filed away.

At the year end, BW can send everything to your accountant and answer their questions.

Business Development

BW has developed a guide using hands on experience, research and advice.  The aim of the guide is to support different areas of business growth - actual practical tips you can put in place. You can choose to have a one off 90 minute planning session, or you can book a few sessions to fit in with your timetable, to really make sure you progress. (There is a link at the bottom of the site showing a taster of what is covered)

Sales Invoices

If you want sales invoices raised using bookkeeping software, emailed to customers and statements emailed to follow up, this can be set up to save you time.  As long as you have online banking, you can also hand the credit control system to BW.  I find a lot of business owners need this service as they are too busy to sit at the computer and get the paperwork processed.

Help With VAT Returns

Every business with income of £85,000 needs to be aware of VAT.  If your business has sales of around £80,000 you need to start monitioring the figures as you may go over the threshold at any time.

Everyone VAT registered has to use software to file their 'Making tax digital' VAT returns. I have experience with a wide variety of bookkeeping software (Quickbooks, Sage, Xero etc).

Administration Tasks

Whether you want a filing system set up, to discuss management of employees or you need a card machine, BW can help you with getting started and staying organised. If you are feeling over-loaded, hand over short term projects while you are getting the right team in place. 

Back Office Services

If you need to turn your own attention to a particular project, or you feel you have reached the stage that your  business needs an administration office, BW can assist with this process.  Dealing with business emails during the day, sourcing a computer and the software you need etc.  BW can assist as a stepping stone in this process for a growing business so that when you are ready to take on additional staff there is an office with a system in place.

One To One Business Support

The best way to work through development plans and keep on track is of course to meet face to face, to talk things through. There are no 'silly questions' and any business concerns can be discussed openly.  You don't have to sign up for an on-going bookkeeping service, you can book a one off 90 minute planning session.

Helping Clients With Communication

For help with emails, support if you need to talk to the bank or attend a meeting with HMRC, BW are happy to help in any way they can.  If administration skills are where you most need the help, just get in touch and we can work out a way for BW to support you.

Assistance With Social Media

BW has set up a variety of Facebook and Instagram pages / groups. This can be a short term contract, so that you take over managing social media for yourself after a couple of months if you prefer.  There is a link to my own Facebook page and LinkedIn profile at the bottom of the site, please have a look.
