Accountants for Ambitious Creative Industries

Accounting for the Creative Industries in Brighton

At Plus Accounting, we know that growing a creative business is as thrilling as it is challenging. Whether you’re launching an animation studio, scaling a video game company, or expanding your marketing agency, our team of expert chartered accountants is here to provide the comprehensive support and guidance you need to achieve your vision.

Growing your Creative Business is Exciting, but It’s Not Always Easy

Deciding to grow your creative business is just the beginning. Without strategic planning, rapid growth can lead to unsustainable cash flow, increased debt pressures, or even failure. Having been part of this journey many times, we know how to manage the process to give your business the best chance of long-term success or to position it for a successful sale.

Comprehensive Financial Services for Creatives

Our full suite of accounting and tax services is tailored to meet the unique needs of businesses in the creative industries. From animation studios and video game companies to content creators and film production companies, we offer bespoke support to ensure your financial foundation is strong as you scale.

Personalised Financial Guidance

We take a genuine interest in your creative business. By investing time to understand what matters most to you, we tailor our services to your specific requirements. Whether you need advice on the most suitable tax structure, navigating IR35, managing cash flow, or optimising your cloud accounting system, we’re here to help.

Empowering Your Creative Team

A strong management team is essential for successful growth. Our tailored workshops offer quick, actionable insights into strategy development, cash flow management, and process improvements. Whether you’re preparing for investment or refining your business model, we empower your team with the skills and confidence to drive your business forward.

Cloud Accounting Expertise

In the fast-paced creative industries, staying on top of your finances is crucial. Our Plus Advisory Team, as Platinum Partners with Xero, provides expert guidance on the best cloud accounting setup. We help you track expenses, manage invoices, and gain real-time financial insights, enabling you to make informed decisions as your business grows.

Strategic Business Consultancy for Creative Growth

Growth isn’t just about scaling; it’s about sustaining success. Our business consultancy services help you identify financial opportunities and mitigate risks, ensuring your business remains competitive in a dynamic industry. We work closely with you to develop actionable strategies for growth and sustainability.

Maximising Sector-Specific Tax Reliefs

Navigating tax reliefs in the creative sector can be complex. Our specialists help you identify and leverage sector-specific tax incentives, such as R&D tax credits, ensuring you maximise your financial benefits. We’ll guide you through the process, so you don’t miss out on valuable opportunities.

Building a Solid Financial Foundation Investment Support and Financial Strategy

Securing funding is often crucial for scaling your business, but it can also be one of the most challenging aspects. We support you through every step of the funding process—from preparing compelling investment packs to navigating tax clearances and funding applications. Our expertise in SEIS/EIS can help make your business more attractive to potential investors by securing advanced approval from HMRC.

With experience guiding numerous creative businesses through growth, we bring a seasoned perspective to your journey. We don’t just manage your accounts; we act as your business supporters, taking on the financial load so you can focus on your creative vision.
