The No.1 Accountant for Freelancers
Whether you’ve been freelancing for years or you’re just starting out, Gorilla Accounting will help you to successfully manage your business finances.
One of the main reasons people become freelancers is because they want to enjoy the flexibility and freedom that comes with running their own business. Being your own boss is one of life’s greatest and most challenging pleasures.
Unfortunately, there are a few downsides to being self-employed, and handling your business finances is one of those negatives.
Whether you freelance as a sole trader or through your own limited company, it’s important to run your business in the most tax-efficient way. Handling your accounts and your self-assessment tax return can be a chore and can take you away from other key business tasks that are vital for growth, profitability and ongoing success.
When you appoint Gorilla Accounting, you’ll have access to unlimited support and advice from your own dedicated accountant and everything you need to manage your business finances accurately, efficiently and cost-effectively.
Our fixed-fee, all-inclusive freelancer accounting service is just £95 +VAT per month for limited companies and £50 +VAT per month for sole traders.

More Take Home Pay for Freelancers
In addition to unlimited accounting support, our all-inclusive freelancer accounting service includes expert tax planning advice to increase tax-efficiency and maximise your take home pay.
As a freelancer, you could work as a sole trader or through your own limited company. There are less filing requirements if you operate as a sole trader but there are many advantages of working through your own limited company compared to working In a personal capacity.
Limited companies have significant advantages when it comes to tax-efficiency and remuneration. As a freelancer operating through your own limited company, you can pay yourself through a combination of salary and dividends, subject to operating outside of IR35. Tax rates on dividends are lower than income tax on salary so with the right structuring, tax savings can be made. Gorilla Accounting are experts in leveraging these tax-efficiencies to increase take home pay for freelancers.
Limited companies also benefit from limited liability. This means that personal assets including your home, car and investments should be protected from creditors if your business has financial difficulties and incurs debt. The limited company is treated as a separate legal entity so your personal assets are protected.
Every freelancer’s circumstances are unique and we can advise you on whether incorporating is right for you based on your situation. If you decide to incorporate, we can complete your company formation for £50 +VAT and can usually have your limited company set up the same day.
