There’s very little in the realm of outsourced financial business support that we can’t offer. Is there anything that you’ve been wondering if you could outsource in your business?

Hi to all of our new followers 👋. We appreciate you being in our nook of the world, looking for business finance tips and support.

Because there are a few newbies, we thought we’d take the chance to (re)introduce ourselves.

We’re Numbers Nerds - a professional bookkeeping and financial support service for start-ups and small businesses. Led by Adam Watson—an experienced accountant and former banker—we bring expert-level financial oversight to companies that need reliable, flexible, and cost-effective support without the full-time price tag.

We’ve been delivering financial support for over 12 years now to businesses nationwide but our experience in the world of finance extends far further back. There’s very little we haven’t heard, seen and supported businesses through over the years.

In short, we love finance. We are unashamedly nerdy with numbers (clue is in the name) - every one of us. Our passion is helping businesses and business leaders thrive by providing outsourced financial support. We might technically be external but we operate as though we were part of your team - same goals, same page.

So tell us a little about you. Where are you based? What does your business do?

How We Add Value

✅ Save Time
We streamline systems, automate manual processes, and free up business owners to focus on what they do best: running and growing their business.

✅ Save Money
From removing inefficiencies to reducing the need for in-house hires, we deliver cost savings that often outweigh our fees. We capture all expenses and make sure to claim all VAT.

✅ Provide Expert Support
With experience across accounting, finance, and tech, we act as an outsourced finance department—supporting growth, improving reporting, and bringing commercial insight.

Let us tell you a little about Jason.

Jason runs a skincare clinic that’s doing fairly well. It turns over around £2 million annually. The business was growing and expanding. He was about to open a new clinic and had taken out a development loan to support and promote the growth. But his accountants were again reluctant to take on the bookkeeping. They were actually the ones that introduced Jason to us.

How could we support Jason and the business through this phase of growth?

We gave him a dedicated support team. We worked closely with his in-house team to see how we could reduce their workload and that of the director. We also developed bespoke reports to keep the lender happy, including specific requests that the accountants were unable to deliver.

This meant a happier director, a happier workforce and equated to a monthly saving for Jason of £300 a month.

Jason’s so happy that we’re now in talks about how we can help alleviate his and his team's workload further with more admin tasks.

I’m in the middle of VAT; I hate doing bookkeeping

says pretty much every entrepreneur and founder we’ve ever talked to.

It does get easier… if you leave it to us Number Nerds. Believe it or not, we love what you hate. We know we’re a special breed. But numbers are our thing!

So if you can relate to disliking that time of the month when you have to do bookkeeping, give us a brief call and see if we can relieve any of that burden - freeing you up from the stress and time it takes to focus on driving business growth and the things you genuinely enjoy.

Another Numbers Nerd is peeping up to say hello.

Meet Mubashir, an ACCA Finalist with over 8 years’ accounting experience, and 4 years working with not just UK but also US businesses.

When Mubashir isn’t cracking away at the numbers and generating hugely useful financial reports, you’ll often find him travelling. He loves exploring mountains. His claim to fame is playing international cricket for the Saudi national team. We won’t tell him that our marketing support played at Lord’s - shhhh!

No matter the industry, no matter the business model, Numbers Nerds have a track record of:

- Saving clients money, stress, and time
- Providing expert financial support
- Enabling business owners to focus on growth and higher-value tasks

Would you like an example of how we’ve helped another business just like yours?

*Who we helped:* John, a managed workspace provider, found his company was growing quickly (great news!), he was about to take on his first employee (also great news) but customers were slow to pay (not so great) and his accountants were reluctant to help with the bookkeeping.

*How we helped:* We stepped in to streamline invoicing and billing process to make it cleaner and clearer, we monitored a finance inbox for him and gave support on demand including the ability to test scenarios with genuine commercial impact.

*The result (and cost):* Apart from the savings on time and improved cashflow, the business benefits from the expertise of an outsourced financial controller for £275 a month

What were you doing the last school holidays? Panicking about how to have a family holiday and still get the work done?

Not to boast or make you feel jealous (well maybe a little) here’s where I was! In Kos enjoying some much needed time out with the wife and 2 of our boys. Great long windy roads, wind in the hair… it was good fun.

How could I sign out mentally for the week? It’s because we have a fantastic team to pick up the reins and need very little of my time to be able to keep delivering a fantastic bookkeeping and business support service to our clients. We work with your team to ensure that invoicing, VAT, payroll and cashflow aren’t what’s holding you or your business back from success.

What are we doing this school holidays? Same thing. Jet-setting again with the family.

If you’d like to genuinely enjoy the next family holiday without worrying about the business ticking over, speak to our Head Nerd, Adam, today and see how we might be able to support you.

A few weeks ago we were able to present to a room of successful business men and women to share some of the many ways that we can add value to small businesses. Here are a few highlights from one of the case studies we shared:

❓️ Who
A skincare clinic with c.£2M turnover that had taken a development loan and was opening a new clinic

❓️ How we helped
- Gave them a dedicated nerd (every business needs at least one 😉)
- Worked with the in-house team and director to relieve some of the administrative burden
- Created regular management reports to submit to the lender
- Saved them £300 a month!

If your plans for 2025 include opening a new branch or getting a business loan to help you grow and scale, it could be a good time to involve a nerd. Get in touch today to find out how we could add value to your business.
