Q&A’s

Whether you’re a small business owner, an individual, or part of an larger enterprise in Salford, our team is ready to assist you in managing your finances effectively. In this section, we have compiled some commonly asked questions to help you better understanding what we offer.

I freelance in TV or media around MediaCityUK. Can you prepare my self-assessment?

Yes. We prepare self-assessment returns for freelancers and self-employed people in Salford’s media and creative sector, including those with several clients or short contracts in a year. We can also advise whether a limited company might suit you. Advice depends on your circumstances, and your first consultation is free.

Can you help a digital start-up in Salford form a company and set up cloud accounting?

Yes. We handle company formation for Salford start-ups, then set up Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent, Sage or KashFlow so your bookkeeping is right from the start. It suits tech, media and professional services firms growing near Salford Quays. We agree a fixed fee and offer a free initial consultation.

I am unhappy with my current accountant in Salford. How do I switch to you?

Switching is simple. We introduce ourselves to your previous accountant, obtain the records we need and take over your accounts, returns and bookkeeping, agreeing a fixed fee first. Many Salford business owners want more regular contact than one annual meeting. Book a free initial consultation at our Manchester or Stretford office.

Can you combine bookkeeping and payroll for a growing Salford business?

Yes. Salford has over 9,500 active businesses, and many growing ones prefer one team for bookkeeping, payroll and year-end accounts. We handle all three on a fixed fee, using your cloud software, so your figures and payslips stay consistent. Ask about a joined-up package at your free consultation.

If you’re searching for reliable accountants in Salford, speak to our team today. We offer a free, no-obligation consultation to understand your business and explain how we can help.
