Casual Meeting

a huge challenge...

When you started your tech business, things were simple. Few costs, no staff, no pressure.

Now growth has brought new challenges:

You're burning through cash faster than expected, and you have no real-time clarity as to where you stand

You want the business to grow, but there's no foresight or planning. So you don't yet know how long your money will last, or whether you can even afford to scale. Every hire or product change feels like a gamble

As a small business, you have no strategic finance partner to lean on. You have an accountant, but they're often focused on accounts and tax returns, not business direction

Hiring an experienced Finance Director would cost £75k–£120k a year, plus tax and benefits.

Even a Financial Controller would set you back £45k+.

But without strategic financial support, you’re flying blind — sleepless nights and financial security become the norm.

the plan...

1️⃣ Live cashflow intelligence – showing exactly what's coming in and going out, in real time


2️⃣ Forecast What’s Ahead – we create crystal-clear cashflow projections and model “what if” scenarios for growth

3️⃣ Board-level financial strategy – helping you scale faster, make smarter decisions, and maximise the value of your business

Here’s what our clients achieve with the VFO:

 

No more sleepless nights over cash

 

Confidence to hire and invest at the right time

 

Strategic clarity to scale without chaos.

a bit about us...

At Clarity Through Numbers, we specialise in helping ambitious tech and software founders (£300k–£5m) who want clarity, control, and confidence with their finances.

We act as your Virtual Finance Office (VFO) — giving you board-level insight at a fraction of the cost of an in-house FD.

 

And we work alongside your accountant, not instead of them.

 

With 35+ years in finance, we know success doesn’t come from working harder. It comes from having the right numbers, at the right time, and the right people guiding you.

Why it matters to you

As an entrepreneur you need your business to not just work for your customers and team, but more importantly... for you, and your family. For what's important to you.

 

For less than the cost of a junior hire, you get:

FD-level financial guidance, so you have that support of an expert, to fall back on

Live dashboards and cash flow visibility, so you can see at a glance what's really going on

Forward forecasts and growth planning. Now you have a clear, actionable plan to get form "A" to "B"

A trusted advisor who understands your business. You've now got a strategic partner

You don’t need a full-time finance team. You need clarity through numbers.

Wayne Harris - Founder

Hello, and thank you for visiting our website.

I created Clarity to replace the financial uncertainty that we all experience, with a real sense of clarity, confidence, and control over your financials, and your business.

My mission is simple... to empower business owners to make smarter, informed decisions — the kind that create lasting freedom and growth.

 

Drawing on years of experience, I combine practical insight, with technology, to turn otherwise complex numbers into a clear strategy.

I believe great accounting changes more than profit — it changes lives. When you understand your numbers, you lead with confidence, protect what matters, and build a business that works for you.

I look forward to working with you soon.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

We didn't have the time or expertise to manage our finances effectively. This lead to cash flow problems, unexpected tax liabilities, and missed opportunities for growth.
We now have efficient bookkeeping systems, and get regular financial reports that offer insights into the business's performance. We now understand the importance of our key numbers, and how to use them to make good decisions
Like all businesses we operate on thin margins making it really hard to manage our cashflow. Seasonal fluctuations, unexpected expenses, and poor debt management made our cash flow challenges worse.

We've since learnt how we can improve cash flow, such as better stock management, pricing, and minimising costs. We also have regular meetings to review our cash flow projections and identify potential issues before they become problems

We never realised the different ways we could pay less tax, and how we could use those savings to put cash back into the business.

We were living week to week, struggling to pay wages and keep our heads above water, let alone pay ourselves a wage. We've now increased our top line, reduced costs, and have "separate bank accounts" where we put money by each week, so there's always enough money to pay everyone. 

It makes things much less stressful
