GM Bookkeeping Services
Little Sutton, Ellesmere Port, Cheshire
Specialising in the bookkeeping of Small and Medium Businesses
Welcome to GM Bookkeeping. I'm Gill Morgan, an experienced home-based bookkeeper and accounts assistant situated in Little Sutton, Ellesmere Port. I offer cost-effective bookkeeping services tailored to the needs of small and medium-sized businesses.
Since 2010, I've been specializing in accounts preparation for a variety of businesses, including hairdressers, beauty salons, decorators, gardeners, and pubs. Prior to becoming self employed, I had 13 years experience working within accountancy practices in Chester and Ellesmere Port.
My mission is to provide a friendly and approachable service, aimed at easing the burdens of business paperwork for my clients. By outsourcing your bookkeeping to me, you can free up valuable time to focus on the core activities of your business, ultimately driving growth and success.
Outsourcing your bookkeeping tasks makes financial sense. It allows you to delegate time-consuming or unfamiliar tasks, enabling you to concentrate on business development - the very reasons you embarked on your business journey.
Get in touch today to discuss how I can support your business's success.

Bookkeeper v Accountant
When managing your own business, keeping track of transactions is essential. Whether it's purchasing office supplies, receiving payments from customers, invoicing for unpaid services, or handling miscellaneous expenses like paying a window cleaner, meticulous record-keeping is key. Every financial aspect needs to be accurately recorded and reflected in your financial statements, such as a profit and loss statement.
For many sole traders and small businesses, handling paperwork isn't the reason they started their ventures. Yet, it's a fundamental task that cannot be ignored. This is where hiring a bookkeeper becomes invaluable.
A bookkeeper is responsible for organising and presenting your primary data—invoices, bank transactions, etc.—in financial records. This allows you to gain insights into your business's financial health. Tasks include reconciling bank, cash, and credit card transactions, managing debtors and creditors, and entering sales and purchase invoices. Regular engagement with a bookkeeper can significantly reduce the workload and, consequently, the fees charged by an accountant. While some opt for accountants to handle bookkeeping tasks, it's important to note that accountants typically charge premium rates, sometimes exceeding £100 per hour for this service. Be sure to compare rates for a clearer understanding.
In addition to engaging a bookkeeper, an accountant plays a crucial role in business operations. Accountants review the financial records, whether prepared by yourself or a bookkeeper, to ensure accuracy and compliance with current regulations. They offer tax advice, handle tax returns, provide guidance on cost reduction and profit maximisation, and generate specialised reports. However, inaccurate or outdated records may hinder the quality of advice they can provide.
While the terms "bookkeeper" and "accountant" are often used interchangeably, it's important to recognise their distinctions. Accountants may also offer bookkeeping services, albeit at higher rates, whereas not all bookkeepers are accountants. Consider whether it's cost-effective to have your accountant manage your paperwork. Collaborating with both an independent bookkeeper and an accountant can offer significant benefits to your business, saving time, money, and reducing stress. I'm more than happy to coordinate with your existing accountant to facilitate the preparation of your final accounts.
