FINANCE FIT CALL
Let’s find out if we should work together.
In 30 minutes, Richie will understand what brought you here, how your finances work today and whether monthly support from Around Finance makes commercial sense.
No hard sell. No vague discovery process. You will leave knowing whether there is a sensible next step.
WHAT THIS CALL IS
What we’ll establish in 30 minutes.
We will understand the business, the reason you are looking now, the support required and whether Around Finance is a sensible fit. You will leave with a clear next step.
We will understand the business.
What you sell, who you serve and what stage the business has reached.
We will identify the trigger.
What has changed, what is not working and why you are addressing it now.
We will test the fit.
Whether the required support, timing and investment align with how Around Finance works.
We will agree the next step.
A proposal, a later conversation or a clear decision that we are not the right firm.
WHO IT IS FOR
A good fit starts with the right kind of problem.
This call is likely useful if…
• You run a growing Irish business and need an ongoing accounting relationship.
• You have outgrown a reactive or year-end-only service.
• Your accounts, reporting or finance processes are creating uncertainty.
• You want clear ownership, predictable fees and regular contact.
• You are prepared to act if the fit and scope are right.
It is probably not the right call if…
• You only need a once-off tax return or isolated piece of advice.
• Your main priority is finding the cheapest accountant.
• You want annual accounts without an ongoing monthly relationship.
• The business is pre-revenue with no funded growth plan or clear programme support.
• You are looking for free technical advice before choosing an accountant.
BEFORE THE CALL
Bring the facts, not a presentation.
You do not need to prepare accounts or gather every document. A clear understanding of the basics is enough.
Please know:
• Approximate annual turnover, or funding level if the business is pre-revenue or seed-funded.
• Average monthly banking transactions for the last three months.
• If Q4 is unusually busy, last year’s Q4 transaction volume.
• The accounting software you use.
• Who handles bookkeeping, VAT and payroll today.
• What is frustrating you most.
• Any urgent filing, payroll or tax deadline.
• Who else is involved in the decision.
If another director or founder must approve the relationship, it is usually better for them to attend.
PRICING CONTEXT
You should know the likely level of investment before booking.
Fixed monthly fees start from €350. Businesses needing stronger reporting and finance workflows typically start from €750, while strategic support starts from €1,500. All prices exclude VAT.
Your exact fee depends on workload, complexity and the level of responsibility we take on.
AFTER THE CALL
A clear outcome either way.
If there is a fit
We prepare a fixed-fee monthly proposal covering the recommended scope and desired start date.
If the timing is wrong
We agree whether it makes sense to revisit later rather than forcing a proposal that will drift.
If we are not the right firm
We will say so. A clean no is more useful than weeks of unnecessary follow-up.
