As we have now expanded our services with the acquisition of a new office in Lerwick, we want to highlight for our community the benefits of having a local auditor.
Community care is at the heart of everything that we do, and while we have been operating in Shetland for a while, it is exciting to finally have a physical presence here to make a true impact and begin auditing clients.
If you are one of our loyal clients, someone who is familiar with the Lerwick team, or a business owner considering the value of an audit, then we want to help you see the benefit it can have on your business.
What are the benefits of an audit?
Earlier this year, we highlighted the impact that audits can have on small businesses and advocated for businesses below the mandatory threshold to consider a voluntary audit.
That is because audits are clearly linked with better outcomes for businesses.
Audits are designed to catch problems with your finances before they become too big to resolve.
They better position your business if you are looking for new revenue streams by providing objective evidence of your financial health to banks and investors.
This can be the key to future success as your business is able to keep growing with that solid foundation underscoring everything.
As it grows, your business will continue to benefit from audits to ensure that you can keep growing.
You do not want to overextend and jeopardise your growth, or play it too safe and let opportunity fly by.
Why do local businesses need a local auditor?
To truly unlock the full potential of your business, you need someone who understands the challenges that are faced by it.
We work with the community and take the time to get to know the clients that we audit.
We have already started to get to know the community around Lerwick, and as the biggest auditor in Shetland we can better achieve this goal.
Working with us, you will come to know the people you work with and grow to trust the impact of their statements and reports.
By implementing the findings of the audits year on year, you will find that your business is appreciably better as a result.
We want businesses in our community to succeed, so you can expect us to take a very critical eye over your financial records.
We are not shy about pointing out where things need improving because we would rather see you around on the high street a year from now than sugarcoat things for you.
Our understanding of and connection to the community is what sets us apart.
We are now the biggest auditor in Shetland and cannot wait to help more businesses find ways to improve their finances and continue growing in the years to come.
Be sure to pop into our new Lerwick office to have a chat with the team and find out how our audit services can help you.
