			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well it&#8217;s good news for anyone looking to build their own website<br />
because someone has finally devised a program to help you build a<br />
website in three easy steps regardless of ability.</p>
<p>And let me tell you this is so simple a 7 year old can do it. If you<br />
have tried to create a professional looking website of your own but<br />
failed Multi Profit Websites is the solution.</p>
<p>You have the ability via a simple admin control panel to create a<br />

companies such as Google, ClickBank, Amazon, eBay, commission Junction<br />
and many more. You also have the ability to display your eBay auctions,<br />
or any auctions you choose. And this can all be done in three easy<br />
steps.</p>
<p> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is a remarkable consistency of business owners that they set up a business in which they themselves are qualified to provide the service or product.</p>
<p>It is this working within the business that creates one of the most common frustrations that owners encounter as their business career develops.</p>
<p>A wonderful book that highlights this is &#8220;The E-Myth Revisited&#8221; by Michael E Gerber. This is excellent reading and will keep anyone interested in understanding the most common issues faced by entrepreneurs.</p>
<p><iframe style="WIDTH: 120px; HEIGHT: 240px" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://rcm-uk.amazon.co.uk/e/cm?t=wwwtaxadvicep-21&amp;o=2&amp;p=8&amp;l=as1&amp;asins=0887307280&amp;fc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;lt1=_blank&amp;m=amazon&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;bc1=000000&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;f=ifr" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></p>
<p>In the most profitable businesses we see, the entrepreneur has released him or herself from the business by systemising each part of the business and allocating responsibilities to other people within the organisation.  This process of gradually delegating and systemising jobs that are currently carried out by owners is the path to maximising the value of a business.</p>
<p>This process of systemising your business can be a minimum of 3 years of processing and starts with the following areas to review:</p>
<p>1. Identify the key systems the business needs to succeed<br />
2. Organise the business in a way that everyone clearly knows their objectives and responsibilities<br />
3. Implement Total quality management (TQM)<br />
4. Manage employees to get the best out of them<br />
5. Build systems and put procedures and scripts into place so that they can work<br />
6. Monitor and improve the systems</p>
<p>
Armed with these processes you should have:</p>
<p>1. Identified the key systems and started the process of standardising the way the business works.<br />
2. Written a management plan with targeted results.<br />
3. Created a detailed organisational chart with key employee objectives and position statements.<br />
4. Set an action plan.</p>
<p>Taking these steps can be frustrating for owners and does involve an element of &#8220;letting go&#8221; but ultimately is the main route to maximising the capital value of any business.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anyone who&#8217;s worked in an office at some point or another has had to visit the accounts department. Here you find the people who pay and send out the bills that keep the business running. They do a lot more than that, though. Sometimes referred to as &#8220;bean counters&#8221; they also keep their eye on profits, costs and losses. You&#8217;d have no way of knowing just how profitable &#8211; or not &#8211; your business is without some form of accounting.</p>
<p>No matter what business you&#8217;re in, even if all you do is balance a bank account, that&#8217;s still accounting. It&#8217;s part of even a teenager&#8217;s life. Saving an allowance, spending it all at once &#8211; these are accounting principles.</p>
<p>Accounting is a crucial part of any business. It&#8217;s how the score is kept and determines whether a business makes a profit or loss and by how much.Accounts are used to monitor the success of a business and to gauge plans against the actual results.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re self employed hopefully you use a good accountant who keeps accurate results. Don&#8217;t forget these accounts will form the basis of how much tax you pay.</p>
<p>Every business and every individual needs to have some kind of accounting system in their lives. Otherwise, the finances can get away from them, they don&#8217;t know what they&#8217;ve spent, or whether they can expect a profit or a loss from their business. Staying on top of accounting, whether it&#8217;s for a multi-billion pound business or for a personal bank account is a necessary activity on a daily basis .</p>
<p>Operating without accounting would be like playing an important football match without keeping score or playing a major golf tournament without marking the card.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We provide information to enable you to grow your business and to save tax. If you want to start or grow a business or you are sick of paying over the odds and you want to pay a fair amount of tax, you&#8217;ll be glad you found this site.</p>
<p>If you have an accountant or you are used to visiting accountants sites you will not recognise this site as one and the same.You will find some of the information on this site is similar to some of the very best UK accountants but alas for many it will be something new. Although Paul Guilfoyle is a fully qualified chartered accountant he does not practice in his own right. If you want Paul to act for you as your accountant you will have to become a client of one of the firms Paul practices through. Currently Paul consults for highly thought of  firms of chartered accountants and private client lawyers. We are not here to sign you up as clients but we are on a mission to ensure you have the very best weapons to fight the recession and successfully survive and grow. If you&#8217;re based in the UK we want you to have at your disposal ways and means of legally reducing your tax bill. We are happy to work alongside your existing accountant but also we have a  national network of highly trusted business advisers and tax specialists we will happily refer you to if required.</p>
