Helping you spend less time on admin – and more time running your business
Running a small business means wearing a lot of hats. One minute you’re looking after customers, the next you’re chasing an invoice, answering emails, updating a spreadsheet or wondering whether you’ve sent everything your accountant needs.
That’s where LR Business Services can help.
We provide flexible, practical back-office support and bookkeeping for small businesses, taking care of the essential day-to-day tasks that keep your business organised and running smoothly.
Whether you need a few hours of regular help each week or additional support during particularly busy periods, you get experienced assistance without the cost or commitment of employing another member of staff.
Bookkeeping Support
Keeping your finances organised doesn’t need to take up your evenings and weekends.
We can look after your routine bookkeeping and financial administration, helping you keep accurate, up-to-date records and making life considerably easier when it’s time to speak to your accountant.
We can help with:
- Day-to-day bookkeeping and financial record keeping
- Raising and sending invoices
- Recording income and expenditure
- Bank reconciliation
- Credit control and chasing outstanding invoices
- Payroll and expenses administration
- VAT return preparation
- Organising receipts and financial paperwork
- Preparing records and information for your accountant
You remain in control of your business finances – we simply take care of the administration behind them.
Back-Office Business Support
Sometimes it isn’t the big jobs that take up your time – it’s the dozens of little ones.
We can become an extra pair of hands behind your business, helping with the regular administration that needs doing but doesn’t necessarily need to be done by you.
Support can include email and diary management, customer enquiries, bookings and registrations, preparing quotations, updating customer records, creating documents and spreadsheets, research, proofreading, supplier administration and general business organisation.
If there’s something taking up too much of your time, ask us – there’s a good chance we can help.
Support That Fits Around Your Business
You may not need a full-time administrator or bookkeeper. You might simply need someone reliable for a few hours each week who understands your business and can get on with things.
That’s exactly what we offer.
Our support is flexible and can grow or reduce as your requirements change. You benefit from experienced business support without having to recruit an employee, provide office space or take on the associated employment costs.
And because we work with you regularly, we get to know your business, your customers and the way you like things done.
Who Do We Help?
We work particularly well with small businesses, sole traders and owner-managed companies where the person running the business has reached the point where trying to do everything themselves simply isn’t the best use of their time.
We have experience supporting a wide range of businesses, including PR agencies, health practitioners and wellbeing providers, trainers and property managers – and the list goes on! We understand the demands of busy, client-focused businesses, where time spent on bookkeeping and administration is time taken away from the work you do best.
You might be growing and need some extra support, struggling to keep on top of your bookkeeping, or simply want to reclaim a few hours each week to concentrate on your customers and your business.
A Safe Pair of Hands Behind Your Business
When you hand over your bookkeeping or administration, you need to know it’s going to be dealt with properly.
LR Business Services provides professional, dependable and confidential support, with an emphasis on accuracy, organisation and getting things done.
Think of us as part of your team – just without needing another desk in the office.
Pricing
Business support is available from £40 per hour, with a minimum commitment of 2 hours per week for an initial four-month period.
If you’re not sure how much support you need, that’s absolutely fine. We can start by looking at the jobs currently taking up your time and work out what would make the biggest difference.
Ready to Get Some Time Back?
If your bookkeeping is piling up, your inbox is taking over or you simply have too much administration and not enough hours in the day, we’d love to have a chat.
Tell us a little about your business, what’s taking up your time and where you could use some help.
Then you can get back to running your business – and leave some of the back-office work to us.
