Do you have a monthly routine for checking your business finances?

If not, don’t worry, you’re definitely not alone.

I’ve created a Free Monthly Finances Checklist to help small business owners keep on top of the basics each month.

It covers simple things like:

✅ Invoices
✅ Receipts
✅ Bank checks
✅ Tax/VAT reminders
✅ End-of-month review points

It’s a simple way to feel a bit more organised without overcomplicating things.

Please create an image for the prompt: What does a bookkeeper actually do?

It’s not just “entering numbers”.

A good bookkeeper helps you keep your records organised and gives you a clearer picture of what’s happening in your business.

We can help with:

📌 Bank reconciliations
📌 Sales and purchase records
📌 VAT returns
📌 Payroll
📌 Credit control support
📌 Keeping your bookkeeping up to date
📌 Helping you understand your figures

Your bookkeeping should support your business decisions not just sit there until a deadline appears.

TML Bookkeeping offers calm, practical support for small businesses, sole traders and landlords.

New tax year, fresh start… how are your books looking so far?

May is a great time to get into a simple bookkeeping routine before the year runs away with itself.

A few helpful habits:

✅ Keep business and personal spending separate
✅ Save receipts as you go
✅ Check who owes you money weekly
✅ Put money aside for tax and VAT
✅ Don’t wait until January to find out how your business is doing

At TML Bookkeeping, we help small businesses stay organised, understand their numbers and avoid last-minute panic.

📍Friendly bookkeeping support for small businesses in Kimberley, Nottinghamshire and beyond.

Business owners: raise your hand if your receipts live in your handbag, glove box and coat pockets 🙋‍♀️

If you’re a sole trader or landlord with turnover/gross income over £50,000, there’s a big change coming from April 2026 called Making Tax Digital (MTD).

The idea is simple: keep your records digitally and send small updates during the year.

✨ When It Applies (Based on Turnover/Gross Income)

2026 → over £50,000

2027 → over £30,000

2028 → over £20,000

✨ What You’ll Submit

Four quarterly updates (totals, not full returns)

One Final Declaration (replacing your tax return)

✨ What’s NOT Happening

You’re not filing four tax returns

You’re not paying more tax

You’re not expected to master complicated software

✨ How I Can Support You

I can help you get set up digitally, understand exactly when MTD applies to your turnover band, and make the whole process quick and stress-free.

✨ Free 15-Minute Chat

If you’d like to check whether MTD applies to you yet, just message me — happy to talk it through.
