FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The first meeting is charged at a fixed fee, which we confirm when you book so there are no surprises. It usually lasts about an hour and covers your numbers and main challenges.
If you go ahead, we send a written proposal with scope and fees before any work starts.
Bring your latest annual financial statements, the last few months of management accounts or bank statements, and any recent SARS correspondence. A list of your main customers, suppliers and monthly fixed costs also helps.
If your records are not tidy yet, that is fine. Bring what you have and we will sort it out together.
Yes. We help new businesses choose the right structure, register with CIPC and SARS, and set up simple bookkeeping and invoicing from the first month.
We also build a realistic first-year budget and cash flow forecast with you, so you know how much capital you need, when you should register for VAT and what to put aside for tax. Many start-ups then move onto our monthly reporting service as they grow.
We prepare provisional tax calculations, check VAT and PAYE figures and work closely with your bookkeeper or accountant on submissions. If you do not have one, we can handle your SARS returns and track every deadline.
Where an audit or dispute arises, we help gather documents and draft replies.
No. Our office is in Sandton, but we work with businesses across Johannesburg and Gauteng, and with clients in other provinces by video call. Meetings can take place at our Maude Street office, at your premises or online.
Monthly reports, budgets and tax work are shared by email and secure file links, so distance is rarely a problem.
