Sound familiar?
Most sole traders are losing moneywithout knowing it
Not through bad decisions — through a lack of visibility. The tax system is not designed to be easy to navigate alone, and most people find out they have been overpaying only once someone actually looks at their setup.
You only think about tax when a deadline is close
If HMRC deadlines are the only trigger for opening your accounts, you are likely missing planning opportunities that close months before the due date.
You are not sure what you can actually claim
Allowable expenses, home office costs, mileage, pension contributions — most sole traders and small business owners claim far less than they are entitled to.
Your accountant does not proactively reach out
A good accountant contacts you before deadlines, not after. If you are always the one chasing, that is time and money you will not get back.
You do not know if you are set up correctly for MTD
Making Tax Digital is expanding. If your bookkeeping is not already digital and compliant, you may face penalties before you realise there is a problem.

Common questions
Questions about thefree health check
Is this genuinely free?
Yes. The 20-minute call is completely free with no obligation. We use it to understand your situation and tell you honestly whether we can help. If Aurestone is not the right fit, we will say so.

Sole traders, freelancers, and small business owners — particularly those who are self-employed, running a limited company, or considering incorporating. If you are unsure whether it applies to you, book a call anyway and we will confirm.
What should I prepare before the call?
Nothing is required. It helps to have a rough sense of your annual income and current accounting setup, but we will guide the conversation from there.
What happens after the call?
We will send you a short summary of anything we flagged, with suggested next steps. If you would like to become a client, we explain how that works. There is no pressure either way.
