"I can highly recommend Accelerate Accounting. They are so professional and a pleasure to deal with. Edel gave me lots of valuable advice and always answered any queries I had promptly. She is always so friendly, supportive and approachable. Her input has really helped me. as a small business owner, it's reassuring and invaluable to have the back-up of such a professional company to assist on the financial side, allowing me to concentrate on the styling side of my business. "
"I could not recommend Edel & the team at Accelerate Accounting more. I’m quite new in my business, the thought of having to work through the whole tax return on my own was just too daunting. Before working together; we chatted through what I could expect & what exactly my business needs were. She was so warm & friendly & totally understood my business model & also provided great advice for future plans. I felt really comfortable signing up with her & Accelerate Accounting; I knew I would be in safe hands.
The whole process was straightforward and once all the information was provided, we had a quick call to go through everything so I understood all the charges, the amounts and the whys before filing the return. Everything was laid out so clearly, I knew exactly what I needed to do & also what she was doing; all in all such a stress free, seamless experience".

She has so much knowledge not only from an accountancy perspective but also in terms of structuring offers, pricing and being strategic. I would highly recommend Edel, especially for online coaches!"

Read More"I did a 6 week course with Edel after I had been following her on social media for some time. I chose Edel to help me with my business financials because not only is she an amazing accountant, she understands the struggles that self-employed/entrepreneurs are faced with and she is able to simplify and demonstrate a system that is easy to understand and follow. I have no business acumen behind me so I know that the accounts side of my business was a complete mess, but with the help, guidance and support from Edel my finances have never looked soooo good! She has instilled a confidence in me that I never had and I'm now excited about moving forward with my business. She has taught me how to focus on the accounts side of things with a lot of ease! I actually can't say enough about Edel, she has been a godsend to my business and I look forward to many years working with her! Thank you so much for all your help."

I just had my first income tax return with Edel and wow! The level of information she provided was amazing. She took her time, explaining everything to me and checked that I understood anything as we went through the information. She also offered expert advice and guidance on my accounts. Her follow up was excellent. As a business owner who has been trading for 2 years, I honestly feel like I am fully on top of my accounts for the first time in a long time! Thanks Edel.”

I was never very strong with the accounting side of my business and Edel has really helped me and put me at ease.

Edel has so much knowledge and experience - I highly recommend booking an initial discovery call with her!"

Read More“I worked with other accountants before who, frankly, had no clue about online business and the expenses that incur to run one. I either felt belittled or that I was paying to educate them more than bookkeeping. Accelerate Accounting on the other hand are specialists in accounting for online service businesses. They have first hand experience of the platforms and subscriptions out there and commonly used. Edel is also exceptional at explaining what is otherwise a whole other language to me in very simple English. Coming off a clarity call, I feel empowered to know my numbers and why these figures are important indicators for my business. Having the support in an area otherwise neglected in my operations has helped immensely in my marketing strategy too now that I have a confident overview with informed targets to meet.”

Read More"I recently had a XERO training session with Edel. As someone who isn't very confident with numbers or the accounting side of my business, Edels training really helped me understand everything in layman's terms. She took her time to bring me through all features of the software, which I will need to use in my business, as well as taking the time to answer my many questions throughout, ensuring I understood everything before moving on. The training with Edel was invaluable and I now feel like I have a handle on the financial side of my business. "

I had been messed around by an accountant just before I reached out to her and it was really a breath of fresh air to speak with her. She gave me a tonne of invaluable advice in our first conversation and I felt totally at ease straight away with her level of professionalism. I’ve felt totally at ease & in good hands throughout the completion of my tax return, which is exactly what I was looking for for with regards to this stuff. I’ll be happily continuing to use Edels services moving forward in my business and I would recommend her to anyone else looking for assistance in these matters. Thanks Edel! :-)"

Read More“As a business owner I wear many hats and accountancy and tax is one that I am comfortable with but with so many things on my to do list, is hard to stay up to date with all the new regulations and changes. That is why it is fantastic to be able to outsource to the experts that keep up to date with the new changes in tax legislation. Working with Accelerate Accounting has been great from day 1. Their professionalism, knowledge and expertise makes my life so much easier so I can concentrate in what really matters to me, helping my clients in their wellness journey! I highly recommend Accelerate Accounting services.”
Sara de Miguel Hernández, Flowwithme
Read More"As a small business starting out, financials, taxes and accounting were areas we lacked understanding and knowledge in. I found this all quite daunting and perhaps intimidating to be honest! We are experts in our field, not in accountancy! One of the things I loved about Edel was her approachability. She has such an amazing manner and was just so fantastic on our call. I felt comfortable asking what I deemed to be silly questions, and she explained everything in detail, but also in a way that I could understand. I came away from our call feeling so much more confident in dealing with the financial side of the business! I also love that she is a female business owner herself and understands our perspective. I would recommend Edel to any small business owner looking for accounting solutions"

Read More"I found Accelerate Accounting on Instagram and was instantly drawn to their content. Finally, some no-nonsense, practical accounting tips! I was stressed about preparing my first end of year tax return and was completely overwhelmed and confused about where to even start. From the moment I spoke with Edel, I felt calmer and more in charge of my business's finances and have already reaped the benefits of some changes I have made on her recommendation. I'm excited to have found an accountant I can trust and who genuinely cares about the work they do. Outsourcing to Edel was one of the best decisions I made for my business this year!"

Read More“Choosing Edel to be our accountant this year was seriously the best decision we could have ever made. As a new business, it was so daunting trying to find someone that really understood our needs as creative small business owners but we knew from our first conversation that Edel just got us.
She handled our taxes perfectly and helped us get deductions that we didn’t even think to claim. Our taxes were prepared way ahead of time allowing us to plan our cashflow and the entire process was so painless. We would definitely recommend her to any creative entrepreneurs out there.”

Read More“Edel has completely changed our accounting system for the better. As a new user to XERO, I had so many questions about getting started. She was able to provide detailed answers and reassurance that we were on the right track. However, I quickly realised that my time and effort was better spent working on my business rather than trying to keeping up with accounting tasks, so we have outsourced our weekly bookkeeping and monthly accounts to Accelerate, and we couldn’t be more happy with the result. Thank you for taking this stress off our plate!”
