Launching a new start up business is stressful and time-consuming enough without having to worry about the complex accounting procedures which go hand-in-hand with running a new enterprise.
You will want to concentrate on your service or product, your customer service and your bottom line. At this critical time in your new venture, financial necessities such as taxation and payroll are distractions from your core business and fraught with potential pitfalls if you are not familiar with the system. There is much to consider when you start a new business venture:
- What is the right structure for my business: limited company, partnership, limited liability partnership or sole trader?
- Do I have to register for VAT?
- Should I register for VAT voluntarily?
- If so, what VAT scheme is right for me?
- What costs can I claim against my sales to reduce my tax bill and what records do I need to keep to substantiate this?
- What deductions against profit can I get for capital expenditure?
- How does the timing of income and expenditure affect my tax liability?
- How should I pay myself?
Getting these things wrong will cost you money, and you may miss out on potential opportunities. At Elver Consultancy we offer all new clients an initial free consultation during which many of the above issues and more can be addressed.
