Who We Help
We work with creators at every stage, from first paid collaboration through to multi-million view channels running a full production team.
Sole Trader or Limited Company? We'll Help You Choose
One of the biggest decisions for any Blogger is choosing the right business structure. Our Accountants provide personalised advice for Crowthorne bloggers, weighing the pros and cons of being a sole trader versus forming a limited company. We consider your income level, growth ambitions, and personal circumstances to recommend the most tax-efficient route. With our guidance, you can make an informed choice that supports your long-term success.
- Analysis of tax efficiency between sole trader and limited company
- Comparison of dividend versus salary extraction strategies

- Corporation tax planning and compliance for limited companies

International Income & Cross-Border Tax for Creators
YouTube pays from the US, TikTok pays from Ireland, a brand deal lands from Dubai and your Patreon settles in dollars. Each of those routes carries its own withholding tax, VAT and currency treatment. We make sure you claim treaty relief where it applies, report foreign income correctly and never pay tax twice on the same pound.

W-8BEN forms and treaty rates so Google withholds 0% instead of 30%.
