TaxCalc SmartPractice Seminars 2016 – bringing innovative thinking to your practice

At TaxCalc we are great believers in the value of innovation, especially in our rapidly-evolving, always-on digital world, where your clients and colleagues are rarely more than a few taps on a keyboard away.

Making Tax Digital - Consultation Documents

HMRC have now published their consultation documents on the Making Tax Digital (MTD) strategy. Covering six separate documents and totalling 243 pages, together they set out HMRC’s vision for the future for the UK’s tax system.

Ramping up – why a rush of new customers can be good news for existing ones

Customers. It is all about customers. Attracting new customers is obviously important for any business, as is offering new products and services that existing customers can buy. However, what matters most is looking after the customers that you already have. Of course, that’s not a new principle but it is one that is easy to lose sight of when things get busy.

Come and say hello to the TaxCalc team on stand A164 and find out more about TaxCalc CloudConnect.
