QuickBooks

From my experience of running my accountancy services business I would recommend using an accounting software, for time and keeping track of the business.

There are many different accounting packages sage, free serve, Xero quickbooks etc however we have found quickbooks is the easiest package to use and to pass on the training to the business owner it is simple. The software saves not only time in producing accounts but saves additional accountancy fees processing your data and if done on a monthly basis can give you an insight into sales and spending which is the key backbone to the business success.

Quickbooks we can supply at wholesale price which is passed on to the customer of £22 a month for the full package (the making tax digital comes into force as of April 2026)

CCJ’S

CCJ’s can be a massive burden on your life as if one is issued to you, it goes onto your records as a court judgement for unpaid debt. Having a CCJ against your name can make it impossible for you to get things such as mortgages, car finance etc…

We can assist you on finding out how your CCJ came about and also help you to get rid of it for a fee of £375.
