• I have tried this and for a finance function, this simply doesn’t work as the finance function operates on a – relatively fixed – monthly cycle, not a weekly cycle. Beside, why would you want to reduce my working time to one fixed day per week, when I can be available On Demand every day, every week. Feel free to book me in for recurring weekly meetings, that’s fine!
• Update … our Bookkeepers will be available to work to a fixed timetable, if you require

This is an Optional Extra if required. The truth is – and Accountancy Practices will attempt to refute this statement – if your Accounts are up to date and reconciled correctly (which they will be when you employ us), there really is little additional work required prior to submitting Year End Accounts. One of – if not my biggest – frustrations with the Accounting industry is the fees charged for this service, and they still know nothing about you, your business, or your industry.

Absolutely not. You’re the boss, you let us know how you wish to work. Some clients do prefer to have a second opinion on the accounts either prior to submission or on that annual basis. My opinion is that emplying another party to file the accounts for you is a bit like asking Jose Mourinho to review whether Carlo Ancelotti is doing everything correctly, but clearly this can give peace of mind to you too.

We’re providing a service far more in-depth than any other Accountancy Practice. With Inform Perform, you are in-housing a team. You really need to compare us to the cost of employing a Finance Controller plus the cost of an Accountancy Practice. To put it another way, we can cost up to 5x times more than a competitor but we will provide you with 50x more time, support, insights, and strategy expertise.

Getting to know you, and the inner workings of your business is fundamental to the service I provide. Besides, I love meeting and working with people too. I’m more than happy to work from your offices on occasion.
