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?
Choosing the right business structure is crucial for tax efficiency and protecting your personal assets. Our advisors work with you to understand your income levels, growth plans, and personal circumstances, then recommend whether operating as a sole trader or a limited company is best for you. We guide you through the implications, so you can make an informed decision with confidence.
- Tax efficiency comparison of both structures
- Dividend versus salary extraction strategies
- Company formation and registration assistance
- Corporation tax planning and compliance
- Personal tax return implications for each structure
- Liability protection and risk assessment
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%.
