THE HIDDEN PROFIT PROBLEM
Most £250k-£5m businesses have 3-7% of turnover
leaking through profit gaps.
That's £15k-£70k for a £500k business.
The issue? Your numbers are looked at once a year,
after it's too late to fix.

THE PROBLEM
THE OUTCOME
LET'S GET STARTED
As businesses grow, the numbers often lag behind.
That usually shows up as:
-
Decisions made on instinct or bank balance
-
Reports that arrive too late to be useful
-
Uncertainty around profit, cash and affordability
-
Having reports that explain the past but don’t help with the future
If your business has outgrown basic bookkeeping, you’re not alone — and you’re in the right place.
When your finance function works properly:
-
You know what's driving profit (and what isn't) - with monthly P&L showing exactly which services make you money
-
Cash flow becomes predictable, not stressful
-
Decisions feel calmer and more confident and based on evidence, not gut feel
-
You can plan ahead with confidence
That’s what we help you build.

In-House Hire vs The UK Virtual Bookkeeper
Hiring finance staff isn’t just a cost decision — it’s a risk decision.
In-house hire
-
Recruitment, onboarding and training required
-
Experience depends on who you hire
-
Risk of hiring the wrong person
-
Ongoing employment costs (salary, NI, holidays, sick leave)
-
Often focused on processing tasks
-
May need supervision and direction
-
Limited ability to interpret numbers
The UK Virtual Bookkeeper
-
No recruitment, no onboarding — support starts immediately
-
30+ years’ experience and professional qualifications

Proven expertise with no employment risk

One clear monthly fee, no employment overheads

-
Proactive support and guidance
-
Clear explanation of what happened, why, and what to do next
You focus on running the business. We make sure the numbers support growth and profit.
How Finance Support Evolves as You Grow
Management Accounts – clear visibility over profit, margins and cash
Tier 3 Bookkeeping & Advanced Reporting – deeper insight into trends, drivers and risks
Fractional CFO – strategy, decision support and profit optimisation
Each stage builds on the last. No wasted work. No sudden step changes.
"I finally understand what’s driving profit."
"Cash flow stopped being a constant worry."
"The numbers now help me make decisions."
Why Monthly Accounts Beat Annual Accounts
Annual accounts tell you what happened last year.
Monthly management accounts help you change this year.
Here’s the difference:
-
Annual accounts are backward-looking and compliance-focused
-
Monthly management accounts are current, proactive and decision-driven
-
Annual accounts highlight issues once it’s too late to act
-
Monthly management accounts highlight issues while you can still fix them
With monthly management accounts, you can:
-
Monitor profit and margins as the business grows
-
Identify cost creep and pricing issues early
-
Understand cash flow pressures before they become problems
-
Make confident decisions around hiring, investment and growth
If profit and growth matter, relying on annual numbers isn’t enough.
Why We Don’t Do Tax or Year-End Accounts
We deliberately focus on bookkeeping, management accounts and financial insight.
Tax returns and year-end accounts are important — but they are backward-looking and compliance-driven.
Our role is different.
We work with businesses that want:
-
up-to-date numbers
-
proactive insight
-
better decisions during the year
We work alongside your accountant, not instead of them.
This clear separation keeps our focus exactly where it adds the most value: profit, cash flow and growth.

Who This Is For
This is a good fit if you:
-
run a growing business
-
want more profit from the work you’re already doing
-
value straight-talking advice
-
want a trusted financial sounding board, not just reports
It’s probably not a fit if you:
-
only want bookkeeping or compliance work
-
are looking for exit or investor planning
-
want a purely reactive, numbers-only service
