FAQs

Thinking about starting a business?Here are the FAQs we hear from clients who are ready to stop dreaming and start doing.

You can start tomorrow as a sole trader, but if you want protection, flexibility, and scalability—forming a limited company might be the better long-term play. We’ll help you weigh up the options, based on your ambitions.

Legally? About £12 to register with Companies House.
Realistically? Think a little wider—accounting systems, insurance, websites, bank accounts, the works.
We can help you build a budget that covers what you actually need from day one.

It depends on your structure, but common ones include:

  • Corporation Tax
  • Income Tax (if you’re a sole trader)
  • VAT (if your turnover exceeds £90k)
  • Payroll taxes, if you hire a team

Tax isn’t scary when you’ve got the right advice. We’ll make sure you’re set up properly and only paying what you need to.

Only if you want to grow, stay focused, and attract investment.
So yes. But it doesn’t need to be a 60-page monster.

Set up a dedicated business bank account.
Use a cloud accounting platform (like Xero).
Track your cash. Know your runway.
Let’s make sure your numbers work with you, not against you.
