Common questions

How do I choose an accountant for sole traders and freelancers?

Compare relevant services, experience with similar organisations, availability, fee scope and communication arrangements. Independently check any professional membership or regulated capability that matters to the work.

Can the accountant work remotely?

Yes. You can request remote support, in-person support or either. Confirm document exchange, meeting and response arrangements before engagement.

Will my personal or business name be public?

No. Public and subscription-gated brief cards use structured requirements and do not show client names, business names, contact details, full postcodes or free-text notes.

Can I compare written fee proposals?

Yes. Responding firms can provide a fee range, fee basis, availability and scope summary. The final engagement and price are agreed directly with the chosen firm.
