Bookkeeping & accounting.

We’ll look after the books so you can focus on what matters.

Bookkeeping is one of the most important tasks you can do to look after your businesses’ money – but that doesn’t make it any less repetitive or tedious to keep on top of.

Most clients we speak to know they need to keep their books in order but find it slips down their list of priorities when they’ve got lots going on day-to-day. And, as business owners ourselves, we understand how easy it is for that to happen.

But that’s where we come in. You don’t need to spend hours poring over the books when we can do it for you. We do it all the time – our team is quick, accurate, and efficient. We’ll use cloud accounting software to keep things even more streamlined, which means you can dip in to see what’s going on whenever you like.

If you’re not sure exactly what bookkeeping is, or how it differs from accounting, we can walk you through that, too.

Essentially, bookkeeping is the process of recording and organising information on your day-to-day business transactions. This information – known as your books – forms the basis of your annual accounts, and helps you keep an eye on how you’re performing against your targets.

Accounting, on the other hand, is more about organising and presenting that data, so that you can make informed decisions off the back of it. At Porter Garland, we can help you with both – so that you’ve got all the information recorded, and are also supported to know what to do with it.
