frequently asked Questions

Why should I hire an external accountant?

Ask yourself how much time you are currently investing in administrative activities in your everyday work and whether you could not use this time much better to pursue your actual activities and, for example, to win new customers. In addition, thanks to years of professional experience, we are able to carry out activities for you more efficiently and faster. Our broad knowledge of accounting and business administration gives you the security you need to focus again.  

Can I also hire an external accountant AND a tax advisor at the same time?

Of course, you can hire both an external accountant and a tax advisor. Since external accountants do not have to use the prices from the table of fees for tax consultants as a guide, you can save costs. On the one hand, because your tax advisor no longer has to spend a lot of time preparing your tax return / annual financial statements  or you have to do it yourself and therefore more cost-intensive  and on the other hand because you save time and money yourself by providing all documents.
