D&K Accounting

Just because your start-up isn’t in a large city doesn’t mean you can’t operate with lots of employees, says D&K Accounting founder Daniel Edwards.

“We try to outsource everything,” says Daniel. “Our contact team are based in Liverpool. Our administrator is based near Peterborough. I have a bookkeeper who’s down South. Outsourcing has become a lot easier because everyone’s working from home.

“I think there are going to be a lot of empty offices in cities because everyone is working from home, and the surrounding businesses such as lunch break businesses and cafes may also suffer the knock-on effect.”

Networking is critical for small businesses in more rural locations, according to Daniel.
