Who We Serve
Proactive accounting for digital entrepreneurs, consultants, and growing UK businesses
We work with ambitious people who are building brilliant things.
Whether you’re launching a new product, scaling a service-based business, or delivering expert advice as a consultant - you need more than an accountant who files once a year.
You need a finance partner who gets your sector, uses your tools, and helps you make faster, better decisions based on real numbers.
At Lightbulb Financial Services Ltd, we work with modern, digital-first business owners who value clarity, speed, and strategic input - not just compliance.
