What are the benefits?

Every business needs to keep accurate records of their financial transactions by law. Incorrect records or late submissions to HMRC can lead to substantial fines.

Hiring a bookkeeper like Pebbles Bookkeeping & HR to get your books into order regularly will not only give you peace of mind that you are meeting your obligations to HMRC it could also reduce your accountancy costs.

Reduced Costs

Hiring an in-house bookkeeper can be expensive for the company. The costs of recruitment, salary, paying for sick absence, annual leave and other associated costs are all a drain on the business resources. In addition, employees require office space, IT equipment, training and other expenses. Outsourcing is cost-effective, as you pay for the services you require at the time when they are needed.

Specialised accounts experience

Your bookkeeper must have the knowledge and experience of your particular industry to be able to produce outstanding results. Outsourcing finance to a reputable provider ensures many years of experience in various sectors, with the required level of skill and expertise.

Proven accounts expertise

The operations and development of a business are necessary and demanding roles in a company and require full-time attention. The bookkeeping may only require attention for a few hours a week, but neglecting to fulfil those duties could have a high cost. Outsourcing will alleviate the time constraints, leaving you free to concentrate on other aspects of the business.

Steve Price, BWP Inspire

Pebbles Bookkeeping took over our bookkeeping when a full-time member of staff left the business.  Our accounts are relatively complex for a business our size because of the number of different suppliers and products we deal with, but Pebbles were able to get quickly up to speed.  We have significantly reduced our costs spent on bookkeeping activity as a result. They have also helped us move to a new accounting system (Xero), which we are already seeing the benefit of, and we’re looking forward to working with Pebbles in the future to automate more of our back-office processes.
