My accountant just does my tax return. I hear this all the time, and it breaks my heart a little.

Because if that's all you're getting, you're leaving a lot on the table!

Here's what a good accountant should be doing for you:

✔️Keeping you compliant, yes, including tax returns.
Flagging tax you don't have to pay.
✔️Advising on whether sole trader or limited company is right for you.
✔️Helping you understand your numbers, not just file them.
✔️Being a sounding board when you're making big decisions.
✔️Making sure payroll, VAT and Companies House filings happen on time.

I work with businesses at all stages, from brand new sole traders to growing limited companies, and the most common thing I hear when someone switches to us is: I didn't realise it could feel this straightforward.

It really can.

What's one thing you wish your accountant would do, or explain better? Be honest. I'm all ears.

We've FINALLY had an increase in mileage rates, which is long overdue as it hadn't been updated since 2011 - 15 years ago!

Previously, you could only claim 45p per business mile that you drove in your own car.

Now you can claim 55p per mile.

This is up to 10,000 miles per year (after that, it drops down to 25p)

You can claim mileage when you use your car to drive to:
✨ networking events
✨ seeing customers/clients
✨ business retreats
✨ training days
✨ in-person meetings
✨ brand photoshoots

For example, this means if you drove 500 miles in a year for business related travel, you would have been able to claim back £225.

Now, you'd be able to claim back £275 - £50 more in your pockets!

3 MTD mistakes I'm seeing soletraders make now...

✨1. Waiting until the last minute

MTD is live for £50k+ earners from 1st April.

The quarterly submission deadlines are set, and the first one is 7th August.

If you wait until that deadline to start setting things up, you’ll be scrambling.

Late submissions = penalty points.
4 points = a £200 fine.

Start now. The setup will likely only take an afternoon.

✨2. Thinking your spreadsheet will be fine

Standard spreadsheets are not MTD compliant.

You’ll need:

Proper MTD software, or
Bridging software that connects your spreadsheet to HMRC

At TH Accountancy, we use Xero as our preferred software for MTD.

For most sole traders, proper software is the better option.

It’s simpler, cleaner, and much easier to manage.

✨3. Not getting an accountant involved early enough

Your first quarterly submission sets the pattern for everything that follows.

If your categories are wrong, your records are off, or your software isn’t set up properly from day one…
you’ll be correcting it for years.

Getting support at the start is always cheaper than fixing mistakes later.

The good news? All of this is completely avoidable.

The people who:

act now
choose the right software
set things up properly
and get the right support

will find MTD very manageable.

The ones who don’t… are the ones dealing with fines, stress, and last-minute panic.

DM me the word MTD to find out how I can support you with your journey into making your tax digital.

There's so many new faces here so I wanted to give a quick review on services I offer for business owners and their accounts.

I mainly support business owners with:

• Bookkeeping – keeping your accounts organised, up to date, and accurate
• Payroll – making sure everything runs smoothly and is done properly
• Finance Director support – helping you understand your numbers and make better decisions in your business

Most of the people I work with don’t need anything complicated… they just want to know everything is being handled properly so they can focus on running their business.

If that sounds like you, comment the word ACCOUNTS to find out more details on how I can support ☺️

I'm having loads of conversations in the DMs at the moment with business owners over making tax digital - because yes, it's new, yes it seems confusing and it does seem scary to begin with.

So, I thought I'd make this little infographic in the hope it'll help some of you out in here.
*Please note £50,000 is from tax year 24/25

So, does Making Tax Digital for Income Tax apply to you?

DM me the word MTD if you're looking for support!

All of these are things I’d invest extra cash into…

Some of them are also allowable business expenses, which means they can help reduce your corporation tax 👇

✔️I’d top up my pension (expense)
✔️I’d have private health insurance (expense)
✔️I’d make sure all my allowable expenses are going through the business (expense)
✔️Gym membership (expense, depending on circumstances)
✔️I’d hire more employees (expense)
✔️More time off for me
✔️I’d buy an electric car (expense)

It’s not just about spending money… it’s about being smart with where it goes and how it supports both you and the business.

5 signs you might need to hire an accountant as a small business owner 👩‍💼

1️⃣ You save all your receipts because you think you have to, but you’re not really sure why you’re doing it.

2️⃣ You’ve got money coming in, but it goes straight back out. You have no idea how much to pay yourself, or even if you can.

3️⃣ You’ve registered as self-employed with HMRC, but the thought of all the compliance and deadlines stresses you out.

4️⃣ You want to understand how your business is performing, but it isn’t clear just from looking through your bank statements.

5️⃣ You spend hours on record keeping in a manual spreadsheet and it drains your energy.

Tax things i wish more business owners knew.

There’s a lot of unnecessary panic around tax.

Most of it comes from things that were never properly explained in the first place.

Confusion doesn’t mean you’ve made a mistake, and a higher tax bill than you expected doesn’t automatically mean you’ve done something wrong.

Your January tax bill isn’t just for last year.

It can also mean you’ve now hit the threshold to start paying payments on account.

What are payments on account?

When your tax bill is over £1,000, you have to pay:

50% of next year’s estimated tax in January
and another 50% in July

So why does it feel like you’re paying more tax?

You’re not actually paying more overall.

These payments on account are offset against what you owe when your next tax return is prepared.

Will this apply to you?

If your profits are higher this year than last, and your tax bill is expected to be over £1,000, then yes, this will apply.

The key thing is to be prepared for it.

Getting your tax return done early means you can plan ahead for any additional payments, rather than it coming as a shock.

Sometimes clients tell me they’re pregnant before anyone else in the world knows, so they can get help with their finances.

If you’re a UK business owner, here’s what you need to know.

When you’re not traditionally employed, it can feel quite scary thinking about how you’re going to afford time off from your business.

First of all, there’s no perfect time to have a baby.

If you’re a sole trader, you need to be 100% off, meaning you are NOT working (other than your 10 KIT days when you’re allowed to work).

If you’re a Ltd company director, you can still receive dividends while on maternity leave, but you can’t be actively working in the business.

The good news is you can claim Statutory Maternity Pay directly from HMRC, which changes each year but is around £194.30 per week.

This is usually the best route, but another option is to fund it yourself and then reclaim it the following tax year.

My biggest advice is to set up a maternity pot with your bank, which automatically saves a percentage of your income, whether that’s 2% or 10%.

You don’t always have to completely pause your business either.

Could you have a team member support you or keep things ticking over while you’re off?

The more you plan for this in advance, the easier it will feel. ✨
