New company leads for accountants

Reach newly incorporated limited companies while they're still choosing an accountant — without spending your mornings manually searching Companies House.

LaunchRegister checks official Companies House data each working day and delivers matching newly incorporated UK limited companies on a daily or weekly schedule. It's built for a simple, repeatable outreach workflow: review suitable companies, organise a consistent first touch, then follow up.

If you want the full product overview — including delivery, format and what's included — read how LaunchRegister works.

Who this is for

LaunchRegister is designed for UK accountancy practices that:

• want a steady, reliable way to identify new limited companies early
• prefer simple delivery with email, a focused workspace and exports
• already have an onboarding process and can handle basic follow-up
• value accuracy and provenance via official Companies House public data

If you're looking for enriched marketing data, contact details, or a done-for-you sales service, this won't be a fit.

Why newly incorporated companies can convert well

New incorporations often have a short window where the founder is actively sorting the basics:

• setting up bookkeeping and software
• understanding taxes, VAT registration, payroll, CIS, dividends
• choosing how to run the business (director salary/dividends, expenses, year-end)
• getting clarity on what good looks like from day one

In that period, many founders are open to a sensible, professional first conversation. It's not guaranteed conversion, but it's one of the few moments where outreach can feel timely rather than intrusive.

If you want the deeper reasoning on timing (and what "early" really means in practice), read when newly incorporated companies typically choose their accountant.

What makes a good new company lead for an accountancy firm?

A good lead is rarely about volume. It's about fit and follow-through.

Good signs for a lead

• incorporated recently
• company type fits your preferred client profile
• a sector you already serve and understand
• within your practical service area (if you prioritise local work)
• a registered office address that's usable for a first-touch letter
• no obvious signs it's a bulk formation or a holding vehicle

Common red flags to filter out

• companies that look like one-off SPVs, e.g. narrow-purpose property entities
• formation-agent patterns where the business is unlikely to engage quickly
• sectors you don't serve or don't want
• anything that is a poor fit for your capacity or pricing model

LaunchRegister is here to support your judgement, not replace it.

LaunchRegister vs manual searching

You can do this yourself, but the friction of manual action soon starts to build up.

Manual approach usually means

• remembering to check Companies House consistently
• running searches, changing filters, and redoing work when you get interrupted
• copying results into a spreadsheet
• cleaning columns, removing duplicates, standardising formats
• trying to keep a consistent cadence when client work gets busy

LaunchRegister gives you

• daily or weekly delivery of newly incorporated companies matched to your filters
• a focused workspace plus ready-to-use XLSX and CSV exports
• less admin and fewer incorporation-lead gaps
• a repeatable weekly process you can hand to a team member

It's not about doing something extravagant. It's about making it easy to keep a useful weekly routine.

How delivery works

Simple by design and ready to slot into your existing ways of working.

1. you set your filtering preferences and review up to 10 personalised matches at no cost
2. if the matches fit, you subscribe for £29 per month
3. you receive daily or weekly alerts on a predictable schedule
4. you review matches in the workspace and export selected companies when needed

Fields the CSV includes

• company name
• company number
• incorporation date
• registered office address
• SIC code(s) / nature of business

LaunchRegister filters and packages Companies House public data. It does not unnecessarily enrich it, predict outcomes, or score companies.

A simple outreach cadence that suits accountants

A good cadence is consistent, polite, and manageable. Here's a straightforward approach many firms can run without it taking over the week.

Day 1–2: First contact

• short, professional, specific to new businesses
• one clear offer (e.g. a 15-minute setup call, or a "new company checklist")

Day 7–10: Follow-up note

• a brief reminder with a different angle (VAT, payroll, bookkeeping setup, deadlines)

Day 21–28: Final touch

• a simple "if now isn't the time, no problem — here's a helpful resource" message

You stay in control of compliance and contact method. Many firms start with post because it's straightforward and easy to keep consistent.

What you'll need internally

To get value from new company leads, you mainly need two things: capacity and a defined next step.

Minimum workable setup

• a named owner (partner/manager or admin) to action the list
• a 15–30 minute weekly slot to review, select, and co-ordinate contact
• a basic tracker (spreadsheet or CRM) with statuses like New, Contacted, Follow-up due, Responded, Call booked, Won/Lost
• a simple offer you're happy to stand behind, for example a free new-company setup plan or fixed-fee starter package

The part most firms underestimate

• speed of response when someone replies
• a consistent follow-up routine
• clear handover from marketing admin to sales/onboarding

FAQs

Is this a bought marketing list?

No. LaunchRegister uses official Companies House public data and turns it into targeted alerts, a focused review workspace and exports for your workflow.

How soon after incorporation will I see a company?

LaunchRegister is designed to surface newly incorporated limited companies as early as practical from Companies House public data feeds. Exact timing can vary depending on when Companies House publishes the record.

Do you provide email addresses or phone numbers?

No. LaunchRegister does not enrich Companies House data with extra contact information.

Can I tailor the list to my niche?

Typically yes — most firms want to focus by sector and/or geography. For more guidance, see filtering new company alerts by SIC code and postcode.

Is there a dashboard?

Yes, but it is deliberately narrow: review matches, record the first approach, manage search profiles and recipients, then export suitable companies into your existing systems.

Will this guarantee new clients?

No — and you should be wary of anyone who claims otherwise. This gives you earlier visibility and a consistent workflow. Outcomes depend on your offer, follow-up, and fit.

Does LaunchRegister help with GDPR/PECR compliance?

LaunchRegister provides public Companies House data in a usable format. Your firm remains responsible for how you use it in outreach. Many firms choose a postal-first approach and keep messaging factual, relevant, and professional. See our guide on GDPR and contacting new companies.

Can I pause or change delivery?

Yes. You can change your digest frequency or recipients at any time, and cancel whenever you like.
