The problem

You didn't start your business to spend your life trying to understand it

You're busy.

  • Customers need you
  • Your team needs you
  • Bills need paying
  • Decisions need making

…while numbers and reports arrive from every direction.

But can you actually see the whole picture?

  • Question 1Where are you making money?
  • Question 2Where is money being lost?
  • Question 3What needs your attention?
  • Question 4What should you do next?
That's where SBS One comes in

The SBS One difference

Stop looking at pieces,
start seeing the whole business

Five views, the same five every month, so you always know where to look.

Position

Where is your business now?

Performance

How is it performing?

People

Are your people helping it move forward?

Protection

Are your finances and compliance protected?

Progress

Where are you going next?

What SBS One does

Rather than a list of services, three things in order

See it

Know what's happening

The information that matters, in one place, updated every month: your money, your delivery, your team and your compliance, without chasing anyone for it.

What’s included

  • Management accounts
  • Dashboards
  • KPIs
  • Cash flow
  • Performance reporting

Understand it

Know what it means

Plain English on what changed, why it changed, and what it tells you about the business, written by someone who knows your trade rather than generated from a template.

What’s included

  • Analysis
  • Profitability
  • Margins
  • Costs
  • Trends
  • Benchmarking

Act on it

Know what to do next

A short list of actions, each with an owner and a date, agreed with you and reviewed next time we meet, rather than a report that sits in an inbox.

What’s included

  • Planning
  • Forecasting
  • Advisory
  • Growth decisions
  • Systems

More than software

A dashboard doesn't run a business, people do

You know your trade. We know finance, compliance and systems. SBS One is where those two things meet: we learn how your business actually works, then work with you to get it where you want it to be.

Sometimes that's the numbers. Often it's a process that isn't working, a system nobody trusts, or a team who'd do more if someone showed them how. The data gives you the insight, and what happens next is a conversation that we're in with you.

TheRIGHT PEOPLE,

in theRIGHT PLACE,

doing theRIGHT THING,

at theRIGHT TIME.

And KNOWLEDGE is KEY.

We work with your team

You already have the people. We work alongside them (your manager, your reception team, your bookkeeper) and, where it helps, we'll train them, so what we build fits how you already run rather than replacing it.

Outside your working day

You're with customers all day. Send a question at nine at night or on a Sunday, and it's read and answered before your next working day starts.

Before, not after

Deadlines, renewals and expiries are tracked and flagged ahead of time. You hear from us before something is due, not after it's been missed.

Whatever the question is

Numbers, a supplier contract, a hire, a price change, a lease, a system that isn't working. If it affects the business, ask, and if it's outside what we know, we'll say so and find you someone.

The whole journey

We work with businesses through the whole journey, not just one stage of it.

  1. Starting outSet up properly, so it doesn't need unpicking in three years.
  2. Getting controlBooks accurate, deadlines met, compliance sound.
  3. Understanding itKnowing what each hour, chair or vehicle actually earns.
  4. GrowingAnother site, another chair, another hire, modelled before you commit.
  5. Stepping backSystems that run without you, and a business worth selling.
Queries answered out of hours
Evenings and weekends, because that's when business owners get to think.
Same-day on anything urgent
An HMRC letter, a cash problem, an inspection call.
Reviews at a time that suits you
Before surgery, after close, or Saturday morning.

Your industry

Because every business is different

A dental practice doesn't run like an estate agency, and a vet doesn't run like a salon, so why would they all get the same report? These are the numbers each one actually opens the dashboard for.

Every trade gets its own measures, its own compliance pack and its own report, rather than a generic template with your name on it.

The business health check

If your business had an MOT… would it pass?

  • Find out what's working.
  • Find out what needs attention.
  • Find out what to do next.
Take the health check

It takes two minutes, there's no sign-up, and it's built for your industry.

A sample view. What you actually see depends on your trade and your plan: a salon does not need NHS contract figures and a car dealer does not need chair time. The measures for your trade, like those in the section above, sit on your dashboard.
Business Snapshot
Your month in plain English: what changed, why, and the actions arising, each with an owner and a date.
Management accounts
The formal pack: profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow and notes. Yours to download or send to a lender.
A conversation
Monthly or quarterly, depending on your plan. The numbers are the agenda, not the meeting.

And instead of simply showing you the numbers… SBS One helps you understand what they mean.

It all rests on you

Now let's make your business work harder for you

You don't need to know everything

You're already an expert at what you do. That's enough.

You don't need another spreadsheet

You've got enough of those, and none of them talk to each other.

You don't need to become an accountant

Or sit through another sales pitch about becoming one.

You just need clarity.And with clarity…You can make better decisions.

The SBS One promise

See it

Know what's happening

Your money, your delivery, your team and your compliance, in one place, every month.

Understand it

Know what it means

What changed, why it changed, and what it tells you, in plain English.

Act on it

Know what to do next

A short list of actions, each with an owner and a date, reviewed when we next meet.

That's SBS One

This isn't software you're left to work out on your own. It's a system, and the people who run it with you, from starting up to stepping back.

Pricing

Four levels, one way to start

Pick the level of support you want. Bookkeeping and payroll are priced separately, on top of your tier, so you only pay for the work you actually need. One clear monthly price, and nothing quoted after you've signed.

Bookkeeping, priced on your actual volume

Bookkeeping sits outside your tier and is priced by how many transactions you actually have each month, so a quiet business and a busy one never pay the same. A transaction means bank transactions plus purchase invoices we process. It does not count sales invoices, which you raise yourself.

For example, an Essentials client with 120 transactions a month pays £249 for the tier plus £195 for bookkeeping. Over 300 transactions a month the price starts at £495 and we quote on your volume, because 310 transactions and 800 are not the same job.

Transactions a monthBookkeeping, per month
Up to 50£135
51 to 150£195
151 to 300£315
