Choosing a business for you
We always start at the beginning to find out where you are at in your personal life, what are your needs and desires, what motivates you and what is important to you. Together we will look at your work/home life balance and what you want to achieve in the short, medium and long term.
If you decide that you want to set up your own company, then we will support you every step of the way. We will initially help you with planning your finances; we will look at the market place with you and help you to find a business that has a competitive advantage. We will look at the implications of directorships with you, the 10 most common business mistakes and also the 10 best things that you should do when setting up a company.
If you feel that setting up your own company is not for you at the moment, but you like the idea of it, we will help you look at other alternatives, like becoming a franchisee.
Legal/Finance
When you are setting up your own business, there is a lot to think about from a legal point of view, we will be there from the beginning to help you decide on the best structure for your company and how to formulate it. We will support you with understanding your HMRC requirements, VAT options, Insurance needs and options and Health and Safety requirements.
Does your business have something about it that you need to protect? For example a trade mark or patent, if so, we will be there to support you and help you liaise with the Intellectual Property office to ensure that you don’t put your business at risk.
We will go through bookkeeping and accounting with you and help you to choose the right accountant.
We will also help you with your business banking, finding the right bank for you based on your needs. Together we will look at what is important in business, Turnover vs. profit and profit vs. cash.
