CUTTING EDGE
We've been working with innovative tech businesses for years - from startup, through to scaling,
funding and exit.
We have been reporting on crypto purchases and taxes since 2015.
We use Xero for accounting, Dext & Pleo for expense management.
We help clients with R&D Tax Credits, Video Games Tax Relief, SEIS, EIS, EMI and other option schemes.
SUSTAINABLE
We are committed to protect our environment and have been paperless since 2015.
But that's not all! We're dedicated to minimizing our environmental footprint and working towards a sustainable, net-zero future.
HIGH-TOUCH
We get as embedded in your business as you will let us.
Our Finance Director Service includes attending meetings with your Board or Executive Team, as well as investors and potential funders.
Our Account Managers know what is going on in your day to day business activities.
TALKING YOUR LANGUAGE
Most accountants use confusing accounting terminology when they speak with their clients.
We don't use accounting jargon.
We say "customer", not "debtor".
We say "supplier", not "creditor".
We can explain the difference between your profit and your cash flow in a way you can understand.

SO... WHY ASK THE BOSS?
Our aim is to help people that take the plunge into starting a business and help their business succeed.
We are about business, not accounting.
Our value is in our people, our processes and our attitude.
We are about exceeding expectations and making business owners ecstatic.
We love talking to you! The best way for you, our client, to get the most out of us, is to talk to us. A lot ...!

MOVING ACCOUNTANTS IS EASY
Moving accountants is super easy - not like changing banks or moving house!
Once you have decided to move, you simply need to inform the existing accountant that you have decided to move to a new firm of accountants and then we'll take over from there.
We will write to your previous accountants and ask them to hand over all data and paperwork relating to your affairs – you do not need to get involved at all.
You will need to sign a contract with us as well as prove your identity – usually a driver’s license and a utility bill is sufficient.

ASK THE BOSS
BUSINESS ACCELERATOR
To create a startup means to risk a high failure rate.
BUT WHY DO STARTUPS FAIL?
Here are some statistics (Business Startup Statistics UK 2022)
20%
of businesses fail in their first year
60%
will go bust within their first three years
29%
failed because they ran out of cash
17%
failed because they lacked a business model
In 2022 we launched our Ask The Boss Accelerator Program with the idea to dedicate our time, knowledge and experience to selected startups and help them build their business idea and grow, with a much better chance to be successful.
Through mentorship and the support of a full business team, the successful candidates will be assigned dedicated mentors with the knowledge and experience needed to build their startup, specifically tailored to their business needs.
This includes:
STRATEGY
PLANNING
RAISING FINANCE
DIGITAL SOLUTIONS
CLOUD INTEGRATIONS
INDUSTRY CONTACTS
COMPLIANCE
Apart from this, the business will benefit from 50% off
their accounting fees for the first 3 months
(of a 12-month contract).
We currently have three places in our
Business Accelerator Program and we'll respond
to your application within 5 working days.
