This established fashion retailer approached us during an expansion phase, operating three boutiques in Kensington, Chelsea, and Notting Hill. Their existing bookkeeping was fragmented across spreadsheets, making it difficult to track inventory movement and profitability by location.

We implemented Xero accounting software with location-specific tracking, created standardized procedures for daily sales reconciliation, and established a monthly reporting cycle. The new system provided real-time visibility into stock levels and sales performance across all locations.

A promising software startup in Shoreditch needed comprehensive financial management from day one. The founders had technical expertise but limited financial knowledge, requiring guidance on everything from company structure to investor reporting standards.

We handled company incorporation, set up accounting systems, managed monthly bookkeeping, and prepared detailed financial models for investor presentations. Our R&D tax credit claim recovered £45,000 in development costs, providing crucial runway extension. When the company raised Series A funding, our investor-ready financials and cash flow projections were instrumental in closing the round.

This restaurant group operated five venues across London but lacked centralized financial oversight. Each location used different systems, making consolidated reporting nearly impossible. Cash flow was tight, and the owners had limited visibility into which venues were profitable.

We standardized accounting across all locations using cloud-based software, implemented weekly reporting dashboards showing revenue and costs by venue, and renegotiated supplier payment terms to improve cash flow. Through detailed expense analysis, we identified £28,000 in annual savings from better purchasing decisions and VAT recovery on capital improvements.

A Harley Street medical practice with 12 practitioners needed to transition from their retiring accountant. The practice handled both NHS and private patients, requiring careful reconciliation of multiple payment streams and compliance with healthcare regulations.

We took over all accounting functions, including NHS payment reconciliation, private billing integration with their practice management software, and payroll for 25 staff members. Our systems ensured CQC-compliant financial record keeping, and we successfully guided the practice through a regulatory inspection with no financial findings.

This online retailer was drowning in transaction data from Amazon, eBay, and their Shopify store. Manual data entry consumed hours each week, and they struggled to understand profitability by product line or sales channel. International sales added VAT complexity they weren't equipped to handle.

We integrated all sales platforms into their accounting system using automated data feeds, eliminating manual entry. We set up proper tracking for shipping costs, marketplace fees, and returns by channel. For international sales, we established VAT compliance procedures for EU shipments and created real-time profitability reports showing margin by product category and platform.

A creative agency in Clerkenwell needed accounting support that understood their project-based business model. They worked with a mix of employees and freelance contractors, creating IR35 compliance concerns. Client billing was inconsistent, and they lacked visibility into project profitability.

We implemented project accounting that tracked costs and revenue by client engagement, streamlined their billing process to reduce payment delays, and established compliant contractor payment systems that addressed IR35 requirements. Quarterly business reviews provided insights into which service lines and clients were most profitable, informing their strategic planning.
