Understanding you

Supporting SME businesses through stages of growth is of great importance to our business advisers. Many of our clients have been with us from their inception and as they have grown, we have been able to help them with appropriate strategic advice.

Accounting requirements for SMEs differ from those of a small business. A small business that has grown to exceed the turnover threshold may find that their accounting requirements have changed and a statutory audit is required. The benefits of an audit for our clients go beyond compliance, our experts can use the process to provide practical suggestions for business improvement.

How can we help you?

Helping you achieve your goals

Support with business growth is a high priority for many owner-managed businesses. Business plans, managing cash flow, achieving profits, sales, growth and benchmarking against competitors are just some of the areas we can provide a helping hand to make sure your business optimises profit.

Planning for succession or exiting your business is vital. It is estimated that less than 10% of business owners have taken steps to plan for their exit. Eventually, every owner leaves their business; few, however, properly plan for succession or exit on their own terms.

We support SME businesses from the early stages of business development right through to planning for succession and exit, whatever form that may take for you.

Making a difference

‘Big data’ and business intelligence has become a hot topic in business as our IT systems have grown increasingly powerful. Successful cashflow management can also be achieved by utilising expert knowledge, forecasting tools and software.

Bespoke business reports and insights based on your company’s own specific metrics, give you greater clarity on your actual business performance and help you identify exactly where profits are being generated or lost. 

Management information is vital for any organisation in order to make informed decisions on long-term business strategy and short-term tactics. Our advisers will work with you to ensure you understand the relevant KPIs for your business and the most efficient ways to extract the appropriate information.
