Bookkeeping is the foundation of strong financial information. Keeping on top of your bookkeeping, however, can often feel like another unwanted job for business owners.

Outsourcing your bookkeeping can give you back valuable time to focus on running and growing your business, whilst ensuring your financial records are accurate, up to date, and ready when you need them.

At GLX, our team can help you with everything from keeping your day-to-day records in order, to then analysing your data to help you make business decisions.

Our outsourced bookkeeping services don't have to sit in isolation, our team of accountants will help you understand your business' performance and help you manage cash flow, leaving you to focus on running your business.

If bookkeeping is taking up more of your time than it should, get in touch with the GLX team to find out how we can help on 01603 617361 or email [email protected]

You know your turnover; however, turnover alone doesn't tell you whether your margins are healthy, whether cash could become tight, or how much you need to generate before you actually start making money.

There are a handful of financial insights that business owners can track to give them a much clearer picture of how their business is really performing, and in our latest article, we have highlighted 5 financial KPIs that we think are a useful starting point for any business:

1. Gross profit margin
2. Customer acquisition cost & lifetime value
3. Cash flow
4. Return on Investment (ROI)
5. Break-even point

The important thing is identifying the numbers that genuinely tell you something about your business, and then using them to make decisions.

At GLX, our team will work with you to help you interpret your figures in a way that will help you turn them into information you can actually use.

Have you received a letter about the British Industrial Competitiveness Scheme (BICS)?

Some manufacturing businesses are receiving letters from the Government advising that they may be eligible for support with their electricity costs from April 2027, but what does it mean for you?

Under BICS, eligible businesses could see electricity costs reduced by up to £40 per megawatt hour, which could potentially lead to a saving of 25% of their electricity bill.

However, receiving a letter doesn't automatically mean your business qualifies. You'll still need to apply, and applications are expected to open at the beginning of October, with a deadline of 30th November 2026.

Our latest article explains what BICS is, who may be eligible and what you should do if you've received a letter: https://www.glx.co.uk/news/british-industrial-competitiveness-scheme-bics-2027/

This Wednesday, some of the GLX team headed out for an afternoon of paddleboarding, supporting Break charity.

Whilst the weather may not have been on our side, we still had a brilliant time paddling along the River Bure before heading back to Go Paddle HQ for some well-earned hot chocolates. ️

A huge thank you to Keeler Recruitment for organising such a great afternoon, to Peter Marron from Break, and to Katie at Go Paddle for looking after us; surprisingly, we all made it back without anyone falling in!

One month to go until the self-assessment registration deadline!

If you need to complete a self-assessment tax return for the 2025/26 tax year and haven't previously registered, or you didn't need to file last year, you'll need to tell HMRC by 5th October 2026.

That could apply if you've become self-employed, started receiving rental income, received other untaxed income, or fall into one of the other categories that require a tax return.

Don't forget that 5th October is the registration deadline, not the filing deadline. Once registered, your 2025/26 tax return will still need to be filed by 31st January 2027.

Our brief guide explains who will need to register for self-assessment tax returns by 5th October, how to register, and what happens next.

Not sure whether self-assessment applies to you? Get in touch with the GLX team on 01603 617361 for advice.

It’s always lovely to receive feedback like this from a client, particularly when the work we’ve done has made such a meaningful difference.

A huge well done to Graham Dale for providing the expertise, support and guidance that led to these very kind words, and, of course, a huge thank you to our clients for taking the time to share their thoughts with us!

Is your accounting software working for your business, or are you just used to working around it?

It’s surprisingly common for businesses to stick with the accounting platform they chose when they first started. But as your business grows and changes, your accounting software should too.

From automated bank feeds and easier reconciliations to better reporting, integrations and access to live financial information, the right platform can make a real difference.

Our latest article is a comprehensive guide to switching accounting software.

We take a look at what you should consider, whether your current accounting software is still right for you, and how GLX can help you identify and implement new solutions.

Yesterday, 6 members of the GLX team joined Smith & Pinching for their annual charity Treasure Hunt, following clues and solving riddles as we made our way around the city.

It was enjoyably challenging, and while we didn’t quite take home the win, we did finish with a very respectable 70 points out of 76!

Everything was well thought out, including goodie bags filled with essential treasure-hunting props, from telescopes and eye patches to balloon swords and pirate hats, plus plenty of water and snacks to keep us going.

Starting and finishing at Mr Postles’ Apothecary, we rounded off the hunt with some lovely food and a chance to catch up with lots of other local businesses. All in all, a great afternoon for brilliant causes.

Thank you to everyone at Smith & Pinching for having us, to Dan Browne for our team photo, and congratulations to Cozens Hardy LLP, who were crowned the winners!
