Financial Modelling for Investment in Glasgow

What do investors actually look for in the model?

Assumptions they can interrogate, sensible unit economics, and a clear runway to the next milestone. A model that only works on optimistic inputs is the fastest way to lose credibility in a first meeting.

Do you work with businesses across Glasgow, or just the south side?

We work with businesses across the whole of Glasgow and its wider commuter belt, from city centre to west end, south side and beyond, remotely via cloud accounting and video calls, with in-person meetings available given our base just outside the city.

You are based in Uddingston. Does that matter for a Glasgow business?

Not in practice. Uddingston is on the south-east edge of Glasgow, a short drive or train ride from the city centre, so meeting in person is easy when it helps. Day to day, the bookkeeping, reporting and review calls all run through cloud accounting and video, exactly as they would with a city-centre firm, without city-centre office overheads in the fee.

What kind of Glasgow businesses do you work with?

Owner-managed businesses that have outgrown a once-a-year accountant: agencies, consultancies and professional services, e-commerce and online businesses trading across the UK, hospitality and retail, and trades working across the city. Typically sole traders and limited companies with a handful of staff up to a few million in turnover.

Can we switch to you from our current Glasgow accountant?

Yes, and it can happen part-way through the year. With your permission we contact your current accountant for professional clearance and the prior year figures, take over access to Xero or QuickBooks, and pick up from there so no filing deadline is missed.
