Does your bookkeeping system make you feel like you’re stuck in the mud?

𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗰𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝗱? Have you been ploughing on with the same old package or spreadsheet for years? Or have you recently subscribed to a new software package that just doesn’t seem to be working for you?

Using software that doesn’t suit you or your business can leave you frustrated and overwhelmed. Maybe you feel like you don’t really know how to use the software yet, and could do with a bit of guidance and support? Do you feel it’s too complicated for what you need? Is it too slow? Too expensive? Too glitchy? Can the software even do what the advert or website said it could?

The Springreach DIY Bookkeeping Community is a supportive online space where you can ask questions about bookkeeping, software and Making Tax Digital. There’s a monthly live Zoom session, a private Facebook group where you can post questions all month through, and a quarterly Making Tax Digital Q&A session. The membership portal contains an ever-increasing range of generic bookkeeping as well as software-specific resources and training.

The community is designed for self-employed individuals with turnover below the VAT registration threshold (currently £90,000). We support a range of software packages, including Xero, FreeAgent, QuickBooks Pandle and VT Transaction+, with several more in the pipeline. If you’re struggling with your current software, or if you want the reassurance of professional support as you learn to manage your own bookkeeping in a new software package, join the community and let Springreach help – membership is available at a “founder member” rate of £15 a month until the end of July.

Switching to new software can be a daunting prospect. Springreach has a limited number of one-to-one software setup / transfer packages available – prices from £300. If you’re interested in moving from manual or spreadsheet records to software for the first time, or in switching away from your existing software package, please get in touch via our website.
