Two Things run every business:
Time and Money.
Everything else is detail. Our whole approach is built around helping you see both clearly.
THE IDEA
Your accounts can tell you what happened last month. They rarely tell you what it means, whether you're buying back your own time or selling it cheaply.
Two Things is built for founder-led businesses past the start-up scramble — where the numbers have got big enough, and the decisions important enough, that guessing isn't good enough any more.
How We WORK TOGETHER
Profit Optimisation: The foundations. We restructure your chart of accounts, clean up your Xero file, build tracking around how you actually make money, and set up your salary, dividend and tax structure properly.
Profit Monitoring: The monthly relationship. Compliance handled. Update delivered accurately and on time. This is where the partnership actually lives.
OUR PROCESS
-
We look to the mavericks and innovators of the world for signs of where technology is leading the way. We don’t fear the advancement of AI; we see it for the tool it is and will become; a way to reclaim the lost time and money that a modern world has taken from us.
Automation is a founding pillar of the modern workplace, with AI managing the load of those monotonous but essential tasks, that grease the wheels of our business finances. We intentionally collaborate with these tools, freeing you to explore the ways your business can grow, pivot, prosper and remain dynamic in our ever-changing economic landscape.
-
Aided by the efficiency of our automated tools, each month we’ll check-in to see that the processes and systems we’ve designed are still delivering the information needed, for those accurate insights into what you want for the business and life outside of your work.
This may look like payroll, which we’ll manage and remind you of in time for your employees’ pay date; if it’s a VAT quarter we’ll prepare the return ready for your approval before submitting and updating your cashflow records with the accurate numbers to prepare for. Yearly, we’ll look at the year-end accounts for Companies House, as well as your personal tax return for HMRC.
-
Our businesses fluctuate, just as our lives do, so knowing your accounts provides more ease and opportunity to see growth and freedom in both. Translating your numbers is what we’re best at. We understand how to maximise a good month of sales, and strategise on ones that didn’t meet your expectations.
While none of us have a crystal ball to see into the future, we stay on the pulse of global financial news and fluctuations to make informed choices about the next fiscal step; when to save, when to spend.
Together, we want to help you look at your finances and feel empowered too. Perhaps you’ve got an established business and you’re planning for the next stage of growth? Accurate reporting is the key to this, because the numbers simply don’t lie. Together, we can see clearly what’s in your scope to scale and manage that growth wisely and sustainably. As entrepreneurs ourselves, we understand that improvements to our business are often intrinsically intertwined with our personal lives, and we value the time and resources that they both need. We’ve mastered the art of translating your numbers, so you can focus on what they mean to you and your future.
