We provide strategic tax planning, deduction maximization, and audit defense services tailored to the unique nature of digital-first businesses. Our approach is proactive, not reactive. Instead of simply filing your taxes and hoping for the best, we help you structure your finances for long-term growth and protection. Whether you're earning £30K or £3M a year, we help ensure you're keeping more of what you make—legally, ethically, and strategically.

One of the pillars of our service is bespoke tax optimization. We analyze your revenue streams, business model, and personal goals to build a custom tax strategy. That might include transitioning to a limited company, managing VAT more effectively, leveraging R&D credits, creating compliant payroll structures, or identifying overlooked deductible expenses. Our goal is simple: reduce your tax liability while increasing your financial resilience.

We also specialize in defensive structuring—setting up your business and personal finances in a way that anticipates scrutiny and withstands it. With increasing attention from HMRC and international tax authorities on digital income, our audit defense service ensures you're protected, compliant, and confidently prepared if ever questioned.

But what truly sets Blackthorn apart is our white-glove client service and deep understanding of the influencer and creative economy. We’re not a faceless software tool or a passive bookkeeping firm. We're real experts who speak your language—fluent in collabs, crypto, affiliate income, licensing deals, paid partnerships, and everything in between. Our founder, Paul, brings decades of experience managing the finances of high-net-worth individuals and entrepreneurs across industries. That depth of knowledge means our advice doesn’t just save money—it safeguards futures.

Financial success isn't just about what you earn. It’s about how you manage it, grow it, and protect it. At Blackthorn, we empower you to do all three with clarity and confidence.
