Do you worry about spiralling costs for accountancy?
As a client of Bells, you don’t need to worry! All the services we agree upon will be included in your pay monthly fixed price package. Call us as many times as you need to about whatever you need to. We love to talk! There will never be any additional bills unless you would like us to do some additional work on your behalf. Of course, any fees for additional services will be agreed with you before the work is undertaken. No hourly rates, no hidden costs.
Are you struggling to understand all the accountancy jargon?
We talk to you in plain English, so you understand everything we tell you. Accountancy is full of baffling terms and technical terminology – we leave it out and speak the same language as you.
Do you need support as a new or small business?
We can help. Our services go beyond the realms of standard accountancy. We can help you form business plans, give advice on start-up finance and help you gear your business up to be profitable. We also have a large local network and will be happy to put you in touch with other businesses which could be a good match for you.
Do you need to take on members of staff?
We can help you improve and grow your business by making it possible for you to take on permanent employees or work with sub-contractors. We can advise on all the implications for your taxes and payroll.
Is your accountant a far-off figure who you have to phone every now and again?
It’s not like that at Bells. Our approach is focused on customer service, and we are here to help you every step of the way. We form a partnership with our clients, helping them to grow their businesses however we can.
We pride ourselves on our responsiveness and the speed at which we turnaround your work.
So much so that we guarantee that if you submit your complete records to us within 30 days of any HMRC deadline and we are unable to meet that deadline, we will pay any fines on your behalf!
