The tangle
Sales had trebled but the books were still founder-run: receipts in inboxes, contractors mixed with payroll, two late returns and research costs never claimed. Growth was real; the paper trail was not.
What we did
We tidied fourteen months of entries, switched on automatic slip snaps, separated contractors from staff, and rebuilt the relief file from engineering notes. Every outstanding return was lodged early with a plain debrief after each one — see how filing with us works.
What stayed after
No late filings since, $41k of research credits surfaced, and the founders now approve a drafted return from their phones. Read our seasonal filing checklist to keep the same rhythm.
