Business Plan

This represents a holistic solution to build the performance and value of your business whilst minimising tax liabilities at all times.  

We have developed this 9 step best practice process simply because research shows that businesses want more from their accountants;

(1)    Decide what you want to achieve
(2)    Develop your plan
(3)    Measure how well you actually perform each month
(4)    Measure your full year’s performance
(5)    Evaluate your performance by comparing to previous years
(6)    Evaluate your performance by comparing it to the rest of the industry
(7)    Estimate how much your business is worth
(8)    Calculate how much more profitable and valuable your business could be
(9)    Develop a performance improvement plan

Don’t’ be put off by the size of the growth package. We believe in a “no one size fits all” approach which is why you decide how many of the steps to invest in as right for your business.

As an example of the benefit and value, we can provide a case study whereby a business owner added over £2.3 million in net cash, simply from investing in these 9-steps.

about our service

I moved to James Stanley less than eight months ago and they have helped restructure my businesses and given me a much greater insight into my finances. I no longer feel daunted by tax and financial decision making because I have my incredible account manager on hand to advise me. Moving to James Stanley was one of the best business decisions I have made since becoming an entrepreneur.

We are really pleased with the help and support given by James Stanley and Co. over the years. This financial year our accounts have been dealt with by Sarah Kent. We are most impressed and her help, advice and support has been first class. Please say thank you to Sarah (and Jayne Cox) for all their help

We have used James Stanley and Co for about 20 years - that probably speaks for itself. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, professional in their approach and always aim to provide a value-added service

Hi Andrew. Just a note to thank you and your staff for all of their assistance in what has been a very difficult and testing year. May I wish you, your staff and their families a happy and safe festive season. Best wishes.

We’ve worked with Mark James at James Stanley for just under three years, and his support has been outstanding. He’s taken the time to truly understand our business and has helped structure it in a way that’s both efficient and forward-thinking. Mark’s professionalism, insight, and dedication have made a real difference, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to clients, friends, and family—as we already have many times.”

Since 2020, James Stanley & Co have not only ensured all my accounting compliance needs are taken care of, but also helped set plans with us to achieve both personal and business growth objectives to date. They very much are the financial arm to my business and I could not operate without them.

After being presented with a very unwelcome HMRC demand, I immediately contacted James, Stanley & Co and after liaising and challenging HMRC on the matter my demand was reduced to nil! Many thanks for your help, professionalism and determines approach. I would not hesitate in recommending the services of James, Stanley & Co Ltd.
