eCommerce
Our advice has helped many ecommerce and marketplace businesses scale rapidly and globally.
Ecommerce was a game changer. Now it is just the way consumers work. Increased competition, increased funding and changing supply chains keep ecommerce and marketplace businesses competitive.
Understanding your business
We understand that accounting and finance choices are often driven by the big calls on how to access market, product, and purchasing. Channel CPAs have varied significantly over the last few years in most segments and, combined with pressure on margins, this has meant that ecommerce and market place businesses have often needed a critical mass of predictable income and brand loyalty to sustain themselves.
We have also seen and advised on many equity and debt funding transactions in the sector. This has been both as lead advisor and supporting accountant – we understand who the investors are in the space, what they are interested and also what they care about in your accounts and management information.
Our experience means we are plugged into a world where we understand what drives success and can support with valuable advice on both how to scale and how to put in place the right finance and accounting systems to underpin growth.
We can support ecommerce and marketplace businesses across their lifecycle with all the tools you need to succeed. This includes:
- insight-led strategies from teams with a significant depth of cross-sector knowledge
- raising equity and debt funding
- objective and practical audit and assurance services
- outsourcing services – from bookkeeping and payroll to a fully outsourced finance function
- designing share options and growth shares schemes
- VAT guidance
- selling your business
- R&D claims
