Sole Trader Accountant

Are you a sole trader? Being a self-employed sole trader is the easiest way and fastest way to start trading.

As a sole trader, you do not have a separate legal entity from yourself, such as with a Limited Company, you make all the decisions and any profit you make is yours, subject to income tax and national insurance.

This is where we can take some of the weight off your shoulders.

When you use our cost-effective service, we will prepare your annual accounts and self-assessment tax return – ensuring that it is filed on time – and offer advice on how you can minimise your tax liability, by making full use of all the reliefs and allowances to which you are entitled.

Our accounting service is suitable for a sole trader just starting out or for someone who has been operating for a number of years and wants a change of accountant.

Here at Reed & Co, we are able to do this for you to ensure it’s done correctly as well as completing your accounts and self-assessment tax returns.

Benefits for a sole trader

There are many benefits of being a sole trader. Start-up costs are very low and the initial setup is simpler and a lot quicker. You are your own boss and are entitled to make all the business decisions yourself and retain all the profits the business makes.
