I help marketing agency owners reduce stress by relieving you of tax and accounts headache | Accountant
Hiring an accountant? Beware of the hidden headache! ⚠️ One of the challenges that can come with hiring an in-house accountant is that, as the marketing agency owner, you suddenly find yourself leading them. But here’s the catch—you’re not a finance expert, so how do you know what good really looks like? You know the results you want, but can you tell if the work is being done efficiently and up to the right standards? Sure, you might get lucky and hire a superstar 🌟, but that’s not always the case. I often hear from agency owners who struggle to get the management information they need, end up hiring more staff because the workload isn’t getting done, and find that their finance department is actually holding them back instead of providing valuable insights. When you hire a virtual finance team, they’re managed by experienced professionals who know exactly what good looks like and ensure your finance department delivers what you need. Plus, you don’t have to worry about paying for: Sick Pay Holiday Pay Employers National Insurance (currently 13.8%) Employers Pension (minimum 3%) Computer equipment for your finance department But the biggest saving? Your time. You won’t have to manage a finance department when you’re not trained in finance. I wouldn’t try to manage a team of designers or developers myself—that would be a disaster waiting to happen! 😅 Ready to focus on growing your agency without the headache of managing a finance team?
