Frequently Asked Questions
We offer a comprehensive range of accounting services tailored specifically for podcasters. This includes preparing and filing your self-assessment tax return, managing your VAT if you're registered, bookkeeping, and providing strategic tax planning. We also advise on business structure – whether to operate as a sole trader or limited company – and help you with payroll if you have staff. Our goal is to take the hassle out of your finances so you can focus on creating great content.
Our services are designed for podcasters at any stage of their career – from just starting out to full-time creators with substantial income. Whether you're monetising through sponsorships, ads, merchandise, or listener donations, we understand the unique financial landscape of the creator economy. We work with individuals, duos, and small teams, offering flexible support that grows with you.
We believe in transparent, fixed packages with no hidden fees. We offer different tiers depending on the level of service you need – from basic self-assessment filing to comprehensive ongoing accounting support. After an initial consultation to understand your situation, we'll recommend a package that suits you, and you'll know exactly what you're paying each month or per project. There are no surprises.
We handle all aspects of HMRC compliance for you. This includes preparing and submitting your self-assessment tax return, ensuring you pay the right amount of tax on time, and advising on any VAT obligations. We keep track of important deadlines and submit everything electronically, so you never miss a date. If you're ever investigated by HMRC, we'll also provide representation and support.
It depends on your income level, future plans, and how much risk you're comfortable with. As a sole trader, you're personally liable for business debts, but the accounting is simpler. A limited company offers liability protection and can be more tax-efficient if your profits are higher, but it comes with more administrative duties. Our team will help you weigh the pros and cons based on your specific numbers and goals, so you can make the best choice.
You can claim a wide range of expenses directly related to your podcasting business. This includes equipment like microphones, headphones, and recording software, as well as costs for editing, marketing, and website hosting. You can also claim a portion of your home internet and electricity bills if you record from home, plus travel expenses for events or interviews. We'll help you identify every legitimate deduction to reduce your tax bill.
We set you up with user-friendly cloud accounting software like Xero, QuickBooks, or FreeAgent, which we manage on your behalf. This allows us to see your income and expenses in real-time, automate bank feeds, and categorise transactions automatically. You get a clear picture of your financial health at any moment, and we can file your VAT and tax returns seamlessly. It's a modern approach that saves time and reduces errors.
Getting started is easy – simply contact us through our website or give us a call to schedule a free, no-obligation consultation. We'll discuss your podcasting income, expenses, and any concerns you have. Based on that, we'll recommend the best service package for you. Once you're on board, we'll handle the rest, giving you peace of mind and more time to create.
