Our accounting services
Here are some of the benefits of using our business accounting services
Proactive
Our proactive accounting services aim to provide our clients with the vital tools and advice to help their business run smoothly and provide valuable information for forward planning and decision-making.
Practical
Our accounting services aim to provide our clients with constructive and practical advice to help minimise costs, improve efficiencies and maximise profits. Where possible, we will always strive for a timely completion of the accounts in order to help with early tax planning opportunities.
Personal
We adopt a personal approach to our accounting services and we always seek to use the knowledge we gain about our client’s business to offer tailored advice to suit the needs and aspirations of our clients.
Outgrown your current accountant?
Having spoken to many of our clients, here are some of the main reasons why they switched accountants:
There is no planning or forward-thinking, everything seems to be reactive
Lack of personal attention
Accounts completed at the last minute
Unclear costing structure with hidden fees
Calls not promptly returned
Less familiar with my sector and personal challenges
No understanding of the changing needs of a growing business
Not looking after my personal wealth planning
Not providing tax planning advice

What do our clients think of Hawsons?
Once again Will and Leanne at Hawson’s Northampton Office have done an excellent job on doing our accounts for the year and helping us with any Sage queries we might have.

What can an accountant do for small business owners?
Less time on administrative tasks, more time on running your business
Our accounting and bookkeeping services can help alleviate administrative tasks. We can also assist you in setting up cloud accounting (online accounting services) software so you can take care of your accounts and bookkeeping in a quicker and more effective way. This will allow you as a small business owner to prioritise more of your time doing what you do best, running and growing your business.
Your business will be tax-efficient
In the long term, small business owners are looking to maintain an optimal cash flow to make the greatest profit possible. Our business accounting services can help you in the process and can help ensure your small business is as tax-efficient as possible whilst avoiding any tax penalties.
Assist with personal tax services
If you are a director of a limited company you will usually be required to file a self-assessment tax return. At Hawsons, our highly qualified tax advisors are experienced in filing self-assessment tax returns. Using a professional tax advisor to file your self-assessment tax return will significantly reduce the chances of an error being made and being subject to a penalty of a fine.
