Business Start Ups

Starting a business means more than putting a sign up and beginning to trade. Whether retailing, manufacturing or service-based, any venture has an element of risk and sound advice from the outset is essential.

For many years, Peters Elworthy & Moore have been giving new businesses a head start through our Business Start-Up service, and have seen many of them grow into large successful enterprises.

The Service

Initial discussions with you about the full nature of the business venture ensures that we have a thorough understanding of your plans and requirements.

Following this, we work with you to:

• prepare a comprehensive business plan to define a clear strategy for development
  
• assess how the business will be financed and prepare financial propositions to financiers
  
• assess appropriate government assisted schemes
  
• decide on the best legal structure i.e. sole trader, partnership or limited company
  
• ensure tax efficiency in running the business
  
• advise on VAT registration
  
• advise on PAYE and national insurance
  
• advise on the maintenance of accurate accounting records
  
• advise on the establishment of budgetary controls and management account systems

The Benefits

Starting a business always brings an element of uncertainty. Careful pre-planning and professional advice helps to ensure that the appropriate funds are raised and strategic business goals are set in order to maximise profit. PEM have the resources and expertise to help you through this critical phase.
