Hi Nikki,
Bookkeeping isn't for everyone, and neither is self employment. If you think you've given the business your all and still don't seem to be making any progress, and if your hearts not in it anymore stop throwing good money after bad.
But on the other hand, if you think you can give a bit more, or try something different, keep going. I'm not sure what your talking about with simplified tax accounts, but every business small and large need to keep good records. Thats where we come in. Businesses don't always know what they need to do, so our job is to educate them. They might say that they can do it themselves, but doesn't this just open up another window of opportunity? Can you offer a health check ever 3-6 months to make sure they're doing it right? Can you offer self assessment returns? What about payroll services? For me it's about finding the angle, and there's always one if you look hard enough.
Good luck in whatever you decide.
Kris
