Bradshaw Johnson Chartered Accountants have a long history of offering services to the business community. This gives us a good platform for offering all areas of business advice to you whether you are starting a new business, taking over an existing organisation or growing a long running venture.

Areas that we can offer business advice in include: –

Long-term objectives and exit plans – by understanding your future goals, both personal and business, Bradshaw Johnson are able to advise on possible strategies and the steps you need to take to achieve them.

Management information – you need to be aware of the financial position of your business at all times, to avoid discovering costly, even disastrous, mistakes when it is too late to do anything. This can only be achieved if you have access to up-to-date management accounts, including analyses, trends and forecasts.

Bookkeeping – having year-round access to accurate financial information is vital, as this is what you will base future business decisions on. Bradshaw Johnson can recommend the most suitable and efficient method of gathering and recording this information, which can be accessed anytime from anywhere – we have vast experience with many different types of accounting software.

Profitability – with your year-end accounts and up-to-date management information in front of you, Bradshaw Johnson will discuss ways of improving your business performance. Topics for discussions could be maximising your gross profit margin through your pricing policies, improving cashflow and reducing debtor days through improved credit control.

Growth and investment – before pursuing a business growth strategy or making a capital investment, speak to Bradshaw Johnson who can advise you on the impact that it could have on the company’s financial position. If you are considering investing in a new or existing business, we can look at the company’s accounts to check everything is in order.

Finance – when you approach a bank for a loan, they like to know it will be repaid. Bradshaw Johnson can present the figures and forecasts that will reassure lenders that you can repay any loans.
