Build Your Business To Create Financial Freedom
Based in Wolverhampton, Get Smart Accountants goes
beyond accounting, bookkeeping and tax services.
Accountants for growing businesses who want to understand
their numbers and scale with confidence.
WHO WE ARE
We’re Paul and Emma, a husband-and-wife team who’ve built Get Smart from the ground up. Paul’s an experienced accountant; Emma’s a former teacher with a knack for strategy and people.
Together, we’ve been through the ups and downs of growing a business while raising a family — and we know how powerful it is when your finances start working for you, not against you.
From our base in Wolverhampton, we support ambitious business owners across the West Midlands and beyond.
We’re not just accountants. We’re your strategic partners, sounding board, and biggest supporters — helping you understand your numbers, make smart decisions, and build a business that gives you time, freedom, and peace of mind.
Is it time for you to Get Smart?
"Paul and Emma genuinely care — not just about our business, but about us as people.”

HOW WE CAN HELP YOU
Our clients choose us — and stay with us — because we do things differently.
We’re not just here to tick boxes and file returns.
We’re here to help you understand your numbers, make smart decisions, and grow your business with confidence.
That means proactive advice, no jargon, and a team that actually cares about your success.
Here’s what our clients say makes us different:
- We explain things clearly – no waffle, just the facts you need in a way you understand
- We’re super responsive – ask us anything (yes, even the “silly” questions)
- We’re personal – we get to know you, not just your balance sheet
- We use tech smartly – Dext, Xero and digital insights to keep you in control
- We take the pressure off – so you can focus on what you do best
WHO WE WORK WITH
We’re not the right accountants for everyone — and that’s a good thing.
At Get Smart Accountants, we work best with ambitious limited company business owners who:
- Have a team of 3 to 20 employees
- Turnover £150,000 to £3 million
- Are based in the West Midlands or surrounding areas
- Want to understand their numbers, not just be told them
- Are looking for proactive support, not just compliance
- Value clear advice, quick replies, and a real relationship with their accountant
You might be:
- A business in the early stages looking to build strong financial foundations
- A growing company that’s ready to scale and needs more strategic insight
- An established business preparing to streamline, expand, or plan your exit
If you’re ready to make smarter decisions and build a business that truly rewards your hard work, we’d love to work with you.
“I finally understand the difference between turnover and profit — no one had explained it like that before.” Katrina Gibson, Dellapip Ltd

Let’s be honest: lack of planning can sink a business. October you can be calm, collected, and caffeinated☕... or January you can be panicked, broke, and wondering how it went so wrong. 🤯 The difference? Treating 30% of profits as untouchable.

Getting stuck in business doesn’t always mean you’re failing, it often means you’re solving the wrong problem. You can tick every box on your to-do list and still feel behind. You can earn and still feel broke. You can look at numbers and still feel lost. The real shift happens when you know which stage you’re in, and give yourself permission to focus on that step instead of trying to fix everything at once. Not sure where you are? Book a free fit call and we’ll map it out with you. 👉https://tinyurl.com/yzbkuwe6 - 📞: 01902 212937 📧: hello@getsmartaccountants.co.uk 🌐: www.getsmartaccountants.co.uk #getsmartaccountants #smallbusinessowners #businesssupport #limitedcompanyaccountants #financialsystems #financialfoundation
