From first call to a working team

The same four steps whether it is a virtual assistant or a full payroll function.

    We propose a team structure, scope and quote based on what we heard.

  4. Scale

    We review results with you and flex the team as your workload changes.

FAQ

Questions we hear often

Do you give tax or legal advice?
No. Our finance team prepares schedules, working papers and return data for review, and keeps records in order. Tax positions and filings are approved by you or your own qualified accountant or tax adviser.
Can you run payroll for Kenyan staff?
Yes. We prepare payroll runs including PAYE, NSSF, SHIF and the Housing Levy from the rates in force, produce payslips and statutory schedules, and hand them to you for approval before anything is paid or filed. This is processing support, not legal or tax advice.
Which software and tools do you work in?
We work inside the tools you already use: your accounting package, helpdesk, CRM, chat and cloud suite. During discovery we confirm access, and we do not move your data anywhere you have not approved.
How do you keep our data secure?
Everyone signs an NDA, access is granted by role and removed when work ends, and we work through your approved systems rather than local copies. Ask us for the specifics of your setup during discovery.
Can I mix services, for example bookkeeping plus a virtual assistant?
Yes, and many clients do. We scope the mix together, agree one point of contact, and adjust the team as your workload changes.
How quickly can a team start?
It depends on the service and how much training your processes need. We give you a realistic start date at the end of discovery instead of a generic promise.
