We help businesses become more successful through outsourced financial management
To many business owners, their accounting service is a grudge purchase because they receive the bare minimum back from their accountant. Seldom do owners feel that they are getting value for their money.
The Virtual FD is much more than just an accounting service.
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY THAT?
1. Ongoing Financial Management Insight at Board Level
We help businesses become more successful by providing ongoing financial management input at board level. For instance, we give strategic business advice to improve sales, profitability and cashflow – this helps you gain understanding & confidence.
We also develop industry-specific reports that make it easy for you to gauge how your business is performing and to know what areas to work on – this helps you to feel more in control.
To summarise:
We understand that you can’t sustain a full time FD but that you would highly value board level input and insight. We can solve this dilemma for you by providing an ongoing monthly service with a Chartered Accountant working with you and your management team.
As a client, you will have regular meetings with and access to your FD.
You will receive ongoing insight and input into your business.
Your accountant will be a fully qualified CA with actual business experience at director level across multiple sectors.
2. Comprehensive Outsource Financial Management and Cloud Based Finance Department
We understand that a major source of frustration to business owners, is that they are tied up with day-to-day management, instead of being free to work on their strengths and grow their business.
We can solve this problem for you with our comprehensive outsource financial management and cloud based finance department which includes bookkeeping and payroll services.
This is a modern, cost efficient & progressive solution for your financial management business needs. It allows you to manage your business on the move and it frees you from the worry and hassle of dealing with admin and lots of staff.
We use XERO accounting software, SAGE Business Cloud and QuickBooks.

What Clients are Saying
"I run a business and help lead two non-profits, and I've worked with many accountants over the years. We love working with Peter and his team, who now handle all of our accounting. He explains things clearly; is calm, efficient and vigilant; and properly understands small businesses. He's an integral part of our team."
"Peter took over as Fire and Lion's financial management consultant six months ago and, in that time, has helped us to turn our business finances around. He has provided me with invaluable knowledge and on-the-job training in Sage, so that I can confidently do our day-to-day accounting under his supervision. We have a management accounts meeting once a month to discuss the company's progress, and Peter's genuine interest in the running and success of our business has meant that these meetings have been a key contributor to our business growth and strategy. Peter is a pleasure to work with!"
“ Peter really lives up to his business' name – as our outsourced Virtual FD, he has held our management team accountable for the implementation of all appropriate financial reporting systems. Acting as a chairman type advisor, he has helped identify the areas within our business where a lack of visibility helped hide holes in the revenue bucket. His professional pragmatic approach to accounting oversight is adding real value to our business’ bottom-line; we cannot recommend his services highly enough.”
"Peter has been invaluable in setting up Book Dash's accounting system and training our staff in how to use it. His knowledge of accounting, Sage software and SARS is incredibly impressive and has helped us navigate many otherwise complicated situations. Peter oversees our accounts each month as well as handles our VAT, PAYE, UIF and payroll. It's a pleasure to work with Peter and a great relief to know that such a capable person is supervising our financial affairs."
