Cloud Nine for Startups in a Financial Fog

 In Small Businesses & Startups

The world is increasingly populated with digital natives, and currently, the entrepreneurial possibilities seem unlimited. With chartered accountants 3 Wise Bears specialising in working with freelancers, contractors and small businesses in the cloud, the possibilities just became even brighter.

Finance Flaws

One obstacle facing any new startup is the less glamorous aspect of running your own business: managing the finances.

Establishing your own company and experiencing the delight that comes with exchanging your unique service for money only to find a confusing mass of bookkeeping, payments and invoicing to deal with must feel slightly akin to winning a pub quiz and then learning that you also have to sit an algebraic exam before the money’s yours: you’ve worked hard for your money but now run the risk of losing out.

The idea of startups feeling penalised with the burden of complex accounting issues when they should be devoted to their business was a motivating factor for us at 3 Wise Bears.

A New Approach

We understand that when you’re running an enterprise, the most important part of your job is to keep it running in the way that you envisaged. If, for example, you’ve set up a craft beer brewery, you’ll want to focus on brewing the most delicious brewski. That means not having to take valuable time out of your schedule to deal with raising invoices, reconciling bank accounts or checking tax liabilities. With us, it also means not having to deal with the stereotypical accountant.

In a famous Monty Python sketch, a chartered accountant visits a vocational guidance counsellor and is told:

Our experts describe you as an appallingly dull fellow, unimaginative, timid, lacking in initiative, spineless, easily dominated, no sense of humour, tedious company and irrepressibly drab and awful. And whereas in most professions these would be considerable drawbacks, in chartered accountancy they are a positive boon.

While some chartered accountants may not enjoy this sketch, the counsellor’s comments rolled off 3 Wise Bears like water off a bear’s back. It’s not applicable.

After all, if it’s possible to start a successful business in 2014 with nothing more than an idea and a laptop, why should accounting, an integral part of your operation, require anything more? It’s certainly all you need for stress free accounting and tax solutions with us.

On Cloud Nine

We promise that you’ll not suffer any brief-case bearing entity speaking in an esoteric financial language. You’ll be collaborating with your own dedicated accountant in the cloud, receiving: real time advice, analysis, forecasting and reporting.
