Appfluent – an accountancy firm? No, not really.

The thing is, we’re not just an accountancy firm. Our name is Appfluent Accounting and we are run by accountants but we’re more than that.

Appfluent Accounting is your own outsourced finance department or, as one client puts it, your trusted financial adviser on all things business.

Bookkeeping. Bank Reconciliations. VAT returns. Credit control. Payroll. We can handle all of this with our Virtual Finance Team.

And of course, we will do the traditional accountancy jobs like compliance and end-of-year tax returns.

What’s in it for you? You save time and stress – and make more money.

How do we make you more money? It’s really quite simple.

We give you all the benefits of having a finance department without any of the drawbacks.

You don’t have to pay for office space, you don’t have to worry about holiday pay or sick leave and most importantly, you have to do very little finance work yourself – leaving you more time to do your actual job and earn a lot more than you’re spending on us.

We’re experts at using the best and most up-to-date tech to save you a vast amount of time – so you can wave goodbye to spending hours each month filling in spreadsheets or sifting through piles of paperwork to check your spending and working out your profit-and-loss margins.

You just put your invoices in each month (all we need is a photo of each one) and we’ll do the rest.

If the idea of using anything more modern than Excel fills you with dread, rest assured in the knowledge that our on-boarding session will show you exactly how to use all the systems which we’ll put in place.

You’ll be bang up to date in no time.

Earning money by spending money: An example

We know that the idea of “we save you time so you can make more money” can sometimes sound a bit flaky.

So here’s an actual example of how working with us won one client some business that he otherwise wouldn’t have had.

Our client was contacted by a prospective customer. They told him what they wanted and he gave them the quote. The only problem was that the quote was almost double what the prospective customer could afford to pay.

What did we do? We suggested that our client offer a “pay £X upfront and £Y a month over 12 months” deal. The whole thing was made possible by our installing a repeat-payment app into our client’s accounts and our client’s potential customer became an actual customer.

What do we mean by an outsourced finance department?

Sounds obvious, but a finance department typically looks after the financial part of running any kind of business, large or small.

That department is likely to include a bookkeeper who deals with purchase invoices and receipts, a payroll specialist and an accountant who does the end-of-year accounts, compliance and more. You might need VAT, credit control and management accounts services as well.

If you’re struggling for office space, or you’d just rather pay a monthly set fee for whatever you and your business need, rather than salaries for at least three members of staff, you need an outsourced finance department. And that’s where we come in.

With decades of expertise in accountancy and finance, we can take care of everything. We message you at least once a week to check that everything’s ok and best of all, we are always available if you need to get hold of us for help with anything.

Don’t need payroll? Don’t need credit control? Not VAT-registered? No problem.

At Appfluent, we don’t believe that one size fits all. We know that every business is different and that not everybody needs the same services as everyone else.

When you come to us, the first thing we will do is have a good chat about where your business is now and where you want it to get to. Then we will put together a proposal based on what we feel your business needs.

The final decision on what we do for you is entirely yours to make though and crucially, you will only pay for the services you want.

Whether you’re a one-man band or an SME turning over £1m + a year, we can tailor our package to suit your needs.
