General questions
An accountant mainly processes day-to-day administration. Examples include:
- Invoices
- Receipts
- VAT returns
- Drawing up the annual accounts
An accountant goes one step further. An accountant not only checks whether the figures are correct, but also looks at what they mean for your company.
We help you meet legal requirements, give strategic advice, identify opportunities and risks, and think about growth and continuity.
With 4you, you don't just get someone who keeps track of your figures, but a committed partner who looks ahead with you. That way you can be sure that your decisions are based on reliable and future-oriented information.
Because we go beyond numbers. At 4you, we combine the power of multiple disciplines:
- Audit
- Compilation
- Tax
- IT Audit & Risk
- Strategic growth
All under one roof.
This means that you don't have to hop from one specialist to another.
Our work is personal and committed, and we use modern, smart tools so that you always have insight into your figures and can act quickly.
Our goal? To help you grow, reduce risks and create peace of mind. So you have time to do what you're good at, while we make sure everything behind it is right.
Absolutely! We think it's a waste to only look at your numbers once a year. Interim reports give you insight into your performance throughout the year. So you can make adjustments quickly, take advantage of new opportunities or save costs. We discuss the results with you in plain language, so that you immediately know where you stand.
Of course! All expertises within 4you are always in contact with each other. This makes it easier for you as a client to ask an extra question and makes it easier for us to provide you with a good answer quickly.
Yes of course! If only we knew everything in advance.
Of course, you can call on other areas of expertise with us later when you need it. Whether you start with the annual accounts, but actually need the knowledge and expertise of a tax specialist later in the year, you've come to the right place.
Audit
During an audit, we independently check your financial statements. We check whether the figures are reliable and complete and whether they comply with laws and regulations. This gives you certainty towards shareholders, banks and other stakeholders.
An audit may be required by law if your company is of a certain size. Even if it is not, an audit can be valuable: it provides insight into risks, reinforces trust with financiers and helps you make better decisions.
You are auditable if you meet at least two of these three criteria:
- More than €12 million in annual sales
- More than €6 million balance sheet total
- More than 50 employees
Do you meet these? Then you need a statutory audit.
With a compilation report, we take your records and turn them into financial statements, without an extensive audit. With an audit, we do perform in-depth checks and issue an independent auditor's report.
It depends on the size and complexity of your company. On average, an audit takes several weeks to months, including preparation, checks and reporting. We always make a clear schedule, so you know exactly where you stand.
Accountancy
We turn your financial records into clear financial statements. We ensure that everything is presented neatly and according to the applicable rules. This gives you a clear picture of your company's performance.
If you let us prepare your financial statements, you can be sure that they are accurate, complete and professional. Banks, investors and the Internal Revenue Service place great value on properly prepared financial statements.
- Compile: we process your records into financial statements, without extensive audits.
- Review: we perform a limited audit and provide additional assurance.
- Auditing (audit): we perform an in-depth statutory audit and provide an audit opinion.
Yes, your records are the foundation. But don't worry: if something is missing or incorrect, we'll help you complete or correct it. That's how, together, we ensure reliable financial statements.
It depends on the size and complexity of your business and the state of your records. Often the compilation is completed within a few weeks. We agree on a clear schedule in advance, so you know when to expect the annual accounts.
Financial statements are not only required by the Chamber of Commerce, but also a valuable steering tool. You can see how your company is performing financially and where opportunities or risks lie. This allows you to make better choices for the future.
Tax
You can come to us for all your tax matters: from corporate and income tax returns to VAT, payroll taxes and international issues. We ensure that you comply with the rules and do not pay too much.
We take a critical look at your situation and look for tax benefits, deductions and regulations that apply to you. This way, you take advantage of all opportunities within the law and keep more of your profit.
Yes, definitely. We not only look at your current return, but also think ahead. For example, about business transfer, investments, retirement or international expansion. This is how we help you grow fiscally smart.
Yes, you can. We take the entire process off your hands: from collecting the right data to filing the tax return and contacting the IRS. You don't have to worry about anything.
During our fiscal scan, we check whether you are making optimal use of schemes and deductions. We often discover areas for improvement or opportunities that you overlook. This way you can be sure that you are not missing out on any money.
Good tax advice gives peace of mind and security. You know that everything is correct, avoid discussions with the tax authorities and gain insight into how your choices affect your financial future.
IT Audit & Security
An IT audit focuses more broadly on the design, reliability and compliance of your IT processes (including controls, data quality, continuity). A security audit zooms in more on resilience against threats. Both complement each other.
For organizations that are under scrutiny (e.g., financial institutions) or work with sensitive data, an IT audit may be mandatory. In addition, more and more customers and partners are demanding demonstrable evidence of IT control.
We work with ISAE 3402, SOC, COBIT, ISO 27001 and NBA guidelines, among others. Together we determine which standard best suits your situation.
Depending on the size and complexity of your organization, an IT audit usually takes from 4 to 8 weeks. Preparation plays an important role in this process.
You gain insight into the risks and quality of the IT environment, including a concrete improvement plan. This often results in not only compliance, but also opportunities to work more efficiently and securely.
Yes. In addition to conducting audits, we also offer advice and guidance to practically implement areas for improvement.
Growth
We translate your vision into concrete growth targets and make choices in proposition, positioning and channels. This leads to a plan that does not end up in a drawer, but is immediately executable.
A revenue machine is a combination of marketing, sales and customer processes that continuously produce predictable leads, sales and profits. Think smart funnels, trigger-based marketing and tight follow-up.
Yes, provided the right KPIs and processes are in place. We help entrepreneurs set up their growth model in such a way that sales and profit growth become measurable and predictable.
We work primarily with entrepreneurs in business and ICT services, but our methodology is applicable to any organization that wants to grow structurally.
Short term: often improvements in lead generation and sales conversion within 90 days (also depending on the sales cycle).
Long term: sustainable growth and value creation through structural changes in strategy and processes.
