I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, efficient and professional.Posted on Google![]()
Zest For LifeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
I worked with Accotx on a HMRC reclaim and overall, they did ultimately deliver on their promise, which I appreciate. The process did take longer than any of us expected, partly due to external delays with the tax authorities, and partly because there were some hiccups in communication and follow-up. However, despite those challenges, they stayed professional and stuck to the original agreed terms. If you’re considering using them, be prepared to stay in regular contact to keep things moving along. They are absolutely capable, have the expertise and willing to work with you, and overall improving their services over time. I would certainly return for any future needs.Posted on Google![]()

I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.Posted on Google![]()

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Influencers Accountants offers bookkeeping, Self Assessment, VAT support, limited company accounts, payroll and cloud accounting setup. We also help with income tracking across multiple platforms, allowable expense reviews and general tax planning. Services are tailored to creators, so you are not paying for generic business support that does not fit how you actually earn.
Anyone earning from content creation can benefit, whether you are just starting out or already working with regular brand partners. This includes YouTubers, TikTokers, Instagram creators, podcasters, bloggers and streamers. If your income comes from several sources or you are unsure what needs declaring, specialist support can help you understand your position.
Brand deal and sponsorship payments are generally treated as business income and should be recorded when you become entitled to them. This includes cash payments, gifted products and contra arrangements in some cases. We help you keep clear records of each deal, including invoices, contracts and any expenses directly connected to the work.
If you are self-employed as a creator, you typically report your income and expenses through Self Assessment. HMRC requires accurate records and filing by the relevant deadline. Your exact obligations depend on your income, structure and circumstances, so it is worth checking your position rather than assuming. We can review your situation and handle the filing for you.
Potentially allowable expenses can include equipment, software subscriptions, props, travel for shoots, a proportion of home office costs and professional fees. The rules depend on whether the expense is wholly and exclusively for your business. We help Yarnton-based creators review spending and identify what can reasonably be claimed.
VAT registration depends on your taxable turnover and the types of income you receive. Some creator income, such as certain platform payments or overseas earnings, can affect how VAT applies. If you are approaching the relevant threshold or are unsure, it is best to seek advice early so you can plan ahead.
The right structure depends on your income, growth plans, how you want to take money out and your attitude to administration. A limited company can suit some creators, while sole trader status may be simpler for others. We help you weigh up the options without pressure and review the decision as your business evolves.
Getting started is straightforward. We begin with a conversation about your income sources, current setup and what you need help with. From there, we can recommend a suitable service, help you set up cloud accounting if useful and agree a plan for bookkeeping, tax returns and deadlines. You do not need everything perfectly organised before you get in touch.
