Are you the right fit for a Virtual Finance Office?
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.
Let’s face it, if SARS didn’t have you doing VAT returns every 2 months, you might even be settling for historic accounts. Out of date accounts are about as much use to helping you grow your business as a waterproof teabag. It’s like trying to drive a car forward whilst constantly looking in the rear-view mirror. In order to be useful, your accounts need to be accurate and current with insights on the key numbers of your business.
These numbers make sure that you’ve got your finger on the button. They will tell you how your business is performing and reveal potential financial and cash flow risks. You will have the data that you need to confidently steer your business in the direction you want it to go.
Many people think that they just need a ‘bookkeeper’. Apart from the fact that the finance side of a business is made up of a number of different areas, often referred to as the ‘finance function’, you should also ask yourself if a bookkeeper is going to give you the insights, support and guidance that your business needs.
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.
We understand how frustrated you may be that you are tied up with day-to-day finance details, instead of being free to work on your strengths and grow your business. We can solve this problem for you with our comprehensive outsourced 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.

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.”
