Running a small business takes passion, skill, and relentless effort. I meet so many business owners who are fantastic at what they do—whether they’re photographers, tradespeople, consultants, or creatives. But when it comes to understanding their numbers and turning that into a clear business strategy, that’s where things can feel overwhelming.
Why “My Finance Department”?
In a large organisation, the finance department doesn’t just track numbers—it provides decision support, strategic insight, and financial planning to help the business grow. It’s there to answer key questions, like:
• Are we charging the right prices?
• Can we afford to invest in growth?
• What’s the financial risk of this decision?
I started My Finance Department because small business owners deserve that same level of support. You might not have an in-house finance team, but that doesn’t mean you should miss out on expert financial guidance that helps you make better decisions.
More Than Just Accounting
Good bookkeeping and accounting isn’t just about keeping HMRC happy—it’s about giving you the insights you need to run and grow your business effectively. The numbers tell a story, but without the right strategy behind them, it’s easy to feel lost. That’s where we come in.
At My Finance Department, we don’t just help you track your finances—we help you use them as a decision-making tool to:
✔️ Price your services profitably so you don’t undercharge for your time
✔️ Plan ahead for tax and cash flow so there are no nasty surprises
✔️ Align your numbers with your marketing and business strategy so your efforts lead to real growth
The Missing Piece of the Puzzle
I’ve seen so many brilliant business owners work incredibly hard and deliver outstanding value to their customers, but struggle to see the rewards because they don’t have the financial clarity and strategic focus they need. They know their craft inside out, but they don’t always know how to translate that passion into a sustainable, growing business. That’s exactly why I started My Finance Department—to bridge the gap between accounting, financial insights, and business strategy, so small business owners can make confident, informed decisions.
