XERO monthly cloud based accounting packages
Cloud accounting service is scalable – you can take as little or as much as you need, without paying for services that you are not using. It is designed to fill in the gaps that you may face when starting up, growing or expanding your business. That could be taking on your accounting, or producing financial reporting to meet the needs of your investors. If you are pre-trading and do not need your reporting monthly, then you can choose something less frequent, like quarterly for example. Or maybe you do not want to hire a full-time person to look after all your finance needs just yet. SME Accounting Services has additional services that include bookkeeping and payroll – so you get all the reporting and get your tax affairs sorted and set up right from day one, all within a pay monthly package that you can easily build your forecasts around. Their monthly service is designed to keep you in control and let you pick and adapt the support and advice you need as you scale. For example, if all you need is more frequent visits with your accountant, then that is all that the company will charge.
