We’ll help you create a better, more profitable business
As Profit First Certified Accountants, we are far more than box tickers. Traditional accountants focus only on annual compliance, whereas at CTA, we have the resources, guidance, and know-how to help you create a better business.
We have various packages depending on how fast you want to grow and what your ultimate goals are. We use our systems to create a roadmap to sustainable and permanent profitability in your business. Too many businesses are just surviving and not enough thriving, and with our guidance, you are far more likely to become a top 20% small business that creates a good living for you and your family.
If you are looking to scale your business in the future, we can even help you with our business coaching services and build a business that can run without you as in Stephen the director of CTA’s book on Amazon, “How To Build a Business That Runs Without You”.
AI-Driven Accounting for Your Small Businesses
As entrepreneurial accountants, we keep you informed on the latest business trends and opportunities with automation and AI. Our director, Stephen, even teaches other accountants how to leverage this technology.
We believe in blending high tech with high touch, building strong client relationships to understand your business and personal goals, so we can offer the best advice.
Save Time & Money with Automated Solutions
We are at the forefront of bookkeeping technology and always look for ways to optimise efficiency, so we can handle compliance as effectively as possible and add value through advisory services that help you make more money and save on tax.
Our processes help organise your finances smoothly into your working week, allowing you to focus on what you do best—keeping customers happy and growing the business.
Making The Switch Is Easy
It is far easier to change accountants than many people realise.
Most of the heavy lifting is done directly by CTA as we will contact your current accountant directly and obtain as much information as possible so we do not need to bother you as the business owner. We limit the information you need to provide to us to a minimum such as your personal details, proof of address etc.
We ensure you have a smooth onboarding process that starts with Georgia, one of our Success Managers in the team, who will walk you through the whole process in an initial welcome call.
We appreciate this for many businesses they do not want to change accountants very often, however we are super experienced in this process and promise you are in good hands.
How We Help You Succeed
One of the main things that excites the team at CTA is getting to meet you where you are in your journey. Whether you are just starting out, taking on your first team member, or even growing to over £1 million in revenue, we can help you at every step along the way.
Our packages are designed to go at a speed that suits you.
The ace in our sleeve is a combination of the Profit First system that we have seen firsthand transform many business owners lives combined with a commercial and entrepreneurial mindset and deep-dive tax reviews that ensure you keep as much money in your pocket as possible (while staying compliant with HMRC).
Proactive Advice for Growth and Efficiency
Our Tax Diagnostic reviews are certainly not a one-size-fits-all, what you need depends on where you are on your journey. When you’re just starting out you often need some simple but essential tax planning advice to ensure the share structure is correct and you are paying yourself as a director and shareholder appropriately. At the same time, it optimising between salary and dividends. As you grow, you may need an expanding business review that focuses on how you can maximise the wealth in your business by reviewing the 32 main ways to save tax, for example. Don’t worry whatever stage you are at, we have got you covered!

Is getting an accountant for my SME worth it?
Getting an accountant for your small business is an investment and not a cost, as we can save you thousands of pounds in the long term. Although it is not a legal requirement to have an accountant, you can fast-track your success by avoiding the mistakes that many business owners make in the first 5 to 10 years of their business journey.
By having an accountant, especially a proactive, entrepreneurial accountant, they can act as a sounding board and almost a partner to your business to make better and smarter decisions.
What type of accountant is best for a small business?
The best type of accountant for a small business is an accountant who can grow with you. The mistake that many small business owners make is they often go with the cheapest accountant they can find, often a friend or family member. However, you will outgrow this type of accountant in no time at all and actually, in many cases, delay the growth of your business because you didn’t get the strategic and commercial advice at the very start that would’ve given you a strong foundation.
Is it compulsory to have an accountant as a small business owner?
It’s not a legal requirement or compulsory to have an accountant. It is, however, a good business decision to make and should be seen as an investment in your business and yourself, as it can shortcut your success.
