Services

No packages. Just what your business actually needs.

A micropub with a small team needs something very different from a maker selling at weekend markets, so I don’t do one-size-fits-all bundles. Pick and mix from the services below, whether that’s a few hours of help each month, a messy backlog sorted once and for all, or setting things up properly from day one.

We’ll have a chat about how your business runs, and I’ll give you a clear quote for exactly what you need. You pay for what you use, nothing more.

Kay Sandford, NorthernStar Bookkeeping

One-off help

  • One-off bookkeeping / backlog catch-up
  • Bookkeeping Health Check

Bookkeeping Health Check

Not sure if your books are actually in good shape? My Health Check gives you a clear, honest look under the hood. I review your current setup, including your processes, software and records, and spot the gaps, bottlenecks and risks that could be costing you time, money or peace of mind.

You’ll walk away with a prioritised, plain-English action plan showing exactly what to fix, streamline or change, and why it matters. It’s diagnostic, not disruptive: no overhaul, no jargon, just clarity on where you stand and what to do next.

Not sure what you need?

That’s what the chat is for. Tell me what’s going on and I’ll tell you honestly what I’d do, even if the answer is “not much.”
