ten good reasons to outsource

As an entrepreneur and business owner, you should spend the maximum time doing the things that add the most value. Outsourcing your finance function will free up time for you to focus on whatever is most important.

We would expect an outsourced finance function to cost you less than the in-house equivalent.

We don’t just produce a set of accounts. We’ll give you better quality information and help you to interpret it. The importance of knowing your exact financial position - especially in an economic downturn - should never be underestimated.

With more sophisticated Management Information, you’ll find it much easier to keep banks, investors, partners and suppliers on-side. And with our robust credit control and cash-flow processes, you’ll know exactly what’s on the horizon.

If Gordon Brown can’t predict the economic future, why should you be able to? In uncertain times, imagine how useful it is to have a resource that can be adjusted up or down to tie in with growth or downturn.

Sickness. Holidays. Workload pressure. Your key finance person moves on to pastures new. Or would you prefer some certainty?

With our strict Service Level Agreement, you have a guarantee that your accounts will be right, on time.

You don’t need VAT advice all-year round, for example. But when you do, we’ll put you on to our VAT specialist, or payroll, tax planning or corporate finance teams. We can bring in the appropriate expertise if and when you need it, without any ongoing overhead.

By outsourcing your finance function, you free up office space that could be used by core teams such as sales, customer service or operations. You’ll also save on the cost of specialist finance training.

Finance isn’t just one specialist subject - it’s a number of specialist subjects. But what may seem complex and time-consuming to an in-house generalist, is second nature to our specialists. We provide an efficient, stream-lined, flexible service to more than 10,000 UK companies.

Changes in law, taxation, VAT, accounting regulations. Regulations that come into effect as your business grows. Do your people really have time to cut through the red tape?

Finance is what we do all day, every day. You focus on growing the business, we’ll keep you in line with changes in financial regulation.
