Why Do We Charge What We Charge? A Look Behind the Client Fee at Plus Accounting

 

A Look Behind the Client Fee at Plus Accounting

As a B Corp certified business in Brighton, Plus Accounting is committed not just to providing high-quality services but also to making a positive impact on our team, community, and environment. With the recent launch of the Brighton Economic Plan, it’s an opportune moment to reflect on what our clients’ fees enable us to achieve, both within our firm and for the broader community. 

Investing in Our Team 

Our commitment to excellence starts with our people. A significant portion of our client fees is reinvested into developing, supporting, and nurturing our team. This includes professional training, upskilling initiatives, and wellbeing programmes that ensure our staff are equipped to deliver exceptional service while enjoying a healthy work-life balance. By creating a supportive work culture, we not only attract and retain the best talent but also foster an environment where innovation and collaboration thrive. 

Ensuring Quality Services for Clients 

Delivering accurate, insightful, and timely financial services requires robust processes, cutting-edge technology, and continuous improvement. A portion of the fees we charge goes toward adopting advanced audit tools, such as Caseware, accounting software solutions like Xero, and other systems that enable us to deliver efficient, tailored services. It also supports rigorous quality control processes, ensuring we remain compliant, proactive, and ahead of industry developments. 

Supporting Our Community 

As a B Corp, we are deeply committed to giving back to our community. We regularly partner with local organisations, contribute to charitable causes, and support initiatives that align with our values. Client fees enable us to sponsor events, such as the upcoming Brighton Chamber Big Debate, and collaborate with impactful organisations like the Survivors’ Network and The Clock Tower Sanctuary. When clients engage with us, they become part of this ripple effect of positive change. 

Advancing Sustainability Initiatives 

A portion of our revenue is dedicated to sustainability efforts. This includes reducing our environmental impact, implementing greener office practices, and supporting wider B Corp initiatives. Our fees help us pursue and uphold our B Corp values, ensuring our business operates as a force for good. 

Fair Compensation and Equity 

We believe in fair pay and ensuring that all team members are compensated in a way that reflects their skills, dedication, and contributions to our firm. Our fees are structured to support a fair and equitable workplace where everyone, from apprentices to senior managers, can grow and feel valued and benefit from our Plus Rewards Bonus. 

Transparent Pricing for True Value 

We understand that investing in financial services is a commitment. That’s why we’re transparent about where your money goes and how it supports not just your business needs but a larger mission to drive positive change. Every client fee contributes to maintaining a high standard of service, fostering innovation, and giving back to our community. 

Looking Forward 

As part of the Brighton business community, we’re proud to play a role in shaping the city’s economic future. Our client fees allow us to stay involved, make a difference, and continue supporting businesses, people, and causes that matter. When you work with Plus Accounting, you’re not just hiring an accountant; you’re contributing to something much bigger.
