Straightforward to get started
You do not need to have tidied up first. We take it from where you are today.
- 01
An informal conversation
We go through what your business needs, and you get a concrete answer on what we can do and what it costs.
- 02
We take over
We collect the accounts as they stand today, review them, and set up the routines going forward. Switching mid-year is routine.
- 03
Ongoing clarity
You get the figures presented so they are something to steer by, and one person to deal with when you have a question.
Why Arif Consult
An accountant you can actually reach
Cloud-based and flexible
We work in cloud-based accounting systems. You can see your figures whenever you want, and we can work together wherever in Norway you are based.
You speak to the professional
There is no account manager taking the call and someone else doing the work. You deal with a state-authorised accountant from the first conversation.
Broad professional background
Auditor, economist and state-authorised accountant in one person. You get someone who understands both the rules and the business behind the numbers.
