The questions people ask about time and money.
How much do you cost?
A standard fixed monthly fee, based on an agreed contract, set by the services requested and the size of the job. We talk first, and I quote a price once we have agreed what you need. You know the price before we start. The notice period is 30 days.
How I price →How much bookkeeping needs doing, is it 3 invoices a month or 300?
Either. I ask roughly how many bank and card transactions you have each month so I know what I am looking at. The number does not rule you out.
Apply to work with Lisa →How much of my time will it take?
Not much. You send me your documents, Dext Prepare captures them, and I do the rest in QuickBooks Online. That leaves you free to run your business.
General bookkeeping →Do I have to submit my own VAT returns?
No. VAT returns are quarterly reports to HMRC based on the general bookkeeping, and I prepare them. If you have subcontractors in the construction industry, CIS is a monthly report to HMRC.
VAT returns →What if I want to leave? Do I lose my books?
No. You do not lose your books. You have joint access to your accounting software (QuickBooks, for example), so the books stay available to you. The notice period is 30 days.
General bookkeeping →Which software do you use?
I work exclusively with QuickBooks Online, and use Dext Prepare for document capturing.
General bookkeeping →I do not understand accounting words. Will you explain things?
Yes, in plain words. Accounting is simple: you have income, you have expenses, and you have a bank or card account, and accounting is recording all of them. The words are the hard part, so I leave the jargon out.
Apply to work with Lisa →Can you do something tailor-made?
Other tailor-made bookkeeping services can be considered and delivered.
