    Go back to being a permie. If you can't do something as basic as this you really shouldn't be running your own business....

      Jeez!

      Sales invoice - The amount you bill the Agent/Client
      bank receipts - The amounts entering your company bank account
      bank payments - The amounts going out of your company bank account
      expenses - The amount you are claiming for food and travel

      Rocket science eh?

      How the hell do you manage to hold down a contract if you can't even fill in a simple spreadsheet?

        Dare I suggest that you use an accountancy service that does not require you to complete spreadsheets?

        We provide a full accountancy service for our clients at just £60 per month.

          A full accountancy service? Does this include Year End Company Accounts and Personal Tax return too?
          I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

            Don't you want to know how well you are doing? how much tax you should be provisioning? what tax planning you need to do? You need to do a little book-keeping just so you know where you are. Its going to take you, what, 20 mins a week? The accountant can then spend the allocated £75 per month worth of time making sure you are paying the minimum legal amount of tax etc etc.

              Suggest you talk to them about this - they will happily take your regular information in any form you want, but you will of course pay more for the privilege. The spreadsheet is just their standard offering.

                Yes, take a look at our website but it covers all the accountancy services you would require including references etc.

                  Coooo-eeee since we've gone all commercial and are now obviously allowed to punt our wares on CU can I recommend a service that I use? These guys are grrrreat and are in no way related to me in any way:

                  Sval-Baards little shop of SAP consultancy services and various other things. We can't guarantee to do your year end taxes but we know SAP like... like... errr... the back of our hands.

                  So remember kids... Sval-Baards little shop of SAP consultancy services and various other things. We're easy, but we're not cheap*!!!

                  * - Sval-Baards little shop of SAP consultancy services and various other things are really really easy but really really not that cheap. They do deliver though and do all of their own accounts so they don't have to deal with useless fu**ing bean counters.
                  Sval-Baard Consulting Ltd - we're not satisfied until you're not satisfied.

                  Nothing says "you're a loser" more than owning a motivational signature about being a winner.
