Do you dread the pile of unopened bills, correspondence etc. as well as the deadlines for submission for VAT and now for some quarterly returns for Making Tax Digital? Is it a job you put off for a rainy day or try and tackle in the evenings after a full day on the farm? Is everything left to the last minute to complete?
Many businesses now employ a secretary or bookkeeper where the farmer or a family member hasn’t got the time or the motivation to keep abreast of regulatory changes in running a business.
As businesses get larger and members of staff are employed, there is a greater burden on administration for the business. These specialist secretaries can be worth their weight in gold and save you a lot of time and money!
Keeping on top of your accounts means you have accurate up to date financial data which you can then use to manage your business. This is particularly important when talking with the bank about any additional capital the business may require, a conversation happening a lot currently due to the low milk price and drought.
Within our FCG Midwest office, we have farm secretaries that can help you keep on top of the bookkeeping and ensure you have accurate up to date management data.
If you are interested in this service, please contact Annabel Hole on 07980 294816 or the office on 01935 850093.
