When it comes to accounting, there are plenty of myths floating around—so let’s bust a few of the most common ones: 1️⃣ “Accounting is only for big businesses.” Wrong! Small businesses benefit immensely from financial clarity and expert guidance. 2️⃣ “Accountants only handle taxes.” Far from it! We help with cash flow, budgeting, payroll, VAT, and much more. 3️⃣ “DIY software is just as good as hiring an accountant.” Software is a great tool, but it can’t replace personalised advice and strategic planning. 4️⃣ “You only need an accountant at year-end.” Good accounting is proactive—regular reviews help you make informed decisions all year round. 5️⃣ “Accountants are scary.” Not at Clarity! We’re approachable, understanding, and part of your team. Have a myth you’ve heard about accounting? Drop it in the comments, and we’ll bust it for you! 💬 #AccountingMyths #MythBusters #ClarityAccounting #FinancialClarity #SmallBusinessSupport

Who knew we had a poet in our mix!!

The deadline for personal tax returns is fast approaching—31st January! We’re curious, how’s it going for you? Let us know where you’re at, and remember—if you need help, we’re here to take the stress out of tax season! #PersonalTaxReturns #TaxSeason #ClarityAccounting #Poll #BusinessFinance

Why hire professionals when you can do the job yourself? Disclaimer - usually doesn't involved dog poo!

At Clarity Accounting, we understand that reaching out to an accountant can feel overwhelming—but you’re not alone, and we’re here to help. "I haven’t filed my taxes in a while!" Falling behind on tax filings is one of the most common fears we hear. It can feel like a weight hanging over you, bringing worries about penalties, legal trouble, or even embarrassment. One client told us they were losing sleep over the thought of finally addressing years of unfiled taxes. Here’s the truth: It’s never too late to get back on track. At Clarity Accounting, we’ve worked with many clients in similar situations, guiding them step by step to resolve overdue filings, minimise penalties, and create a plan for the future. When this client finally reached out, we tackled their backlog with kindness, professionalism, and zero judgement. The relief they felt after knowing their finances were in order was transformative—and it can be for you too. If you’ve been putting off seeking help, don’t let fear hold you back. We’re here to help you break down those barriers and move forward with confidence. #BreakingDownBarriers #ClarityAccounting #NoJudgementJustSolutions #AccountingSupport #FinancialClarity

Moving office during the busiest month of the year was no small feat, but we’re thrilled with how seamless the transition has been. (Although, Donald Gilmour and Marcus Goodwin might have a few stories to share about the hiccups along the way! 😂) We can’t wait to welcome you to our new digs soon. Here’s to exciting new beginnings! 👍 #NewOffice #TeamClarity #ExcitingChanges #FreshStart #BusinessGrowth

We’re well and truly back into the swing of things after the holidays!

My tax return!”—don’t panic. We’ve got you covered. Drop us a message, and we’ll help you get everything sorted, stress-free.
