										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Do you need more support? Has your accountant outgrown you?  Or perhaps you feel you need a different perspective? Perhaps you want a fixed fee model for your accounting support.  It may be time to change accountants.</p>



<p>Whatever your reason for changing accountants we make the process simple.</p>



<p>Following an initial consultation we prepare a proposal, including all services you require together with a quote. We offer fixed fee options for most services, so there will not be any year end surprises.</p>



<p>Once you accept our proposal through a simple online process, we will take care of everything. We contact your current accountant to get professional clearance and all documentation necessary to seamlessly transition to become our client.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is an Initial Consultation?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="http://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg"><img width="1024" height="683"  alt="Consultation" class="wp-image-307 lws-optimize-lazyload"/ data-src="http://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-1024x683.jpg" srcset="https://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-2048x1367.jpg 2048w, https://www.evansbond.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash-1-750x500.jpg 750w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure>



<p>We only work with customers who are a good fit &#8211; where we can add value and improve the lives of our clients. During the initial consultation you’ll meet a Director who will oversee your engagement and also be your point of contact.</p>



<p>We will discuss your business &#8211; understand your story and take time to understand not only where you are now, but your future plans and ambitions.</p>



<p>We&#8217;ll explore what services you require, and what may bring added value, such as our advisory services.</p>



<p>We offer everything right from bookkeeping and invoicing to management accounts, budgeting and financial briefings.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What can Evans Bond do that my Current Accountant Cannot?</h2>

<p>Whilst accountants will offer you compliance services &#8211; bookkeeping, annual accounts and tax compliance, we pride ourselves in partnering with our clients. We take time to fully understand our clients’ business so we can add value.</p>



<p>We know some businesses feel their accountants don’t have time for them, or do not understand their needs. As a small business focussed on serving local clients we appreciate the needs of our clients.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Should I Do Now?</h2>



<p>We are proud of our services and how we help our clients succeed. To find out how we can help you on your journey contact us for a <a href="https://www.evansbond.com/book/" data-type="page" data-id="293">free consultation here </a>or by calling <a href="tel:+441481710899">01481 710899</a>.</p>
