Beacon Leads
The companies in your area that need an accountant.
Beacon Leads is a private lead platform for UK accountancy practices. Every lead comes ranked, with a named director to contact and the reason to get in touch now.
Every lead
Everything you need to make contact
Why it's a lead
A one-line reason taken straight from the company's filings, with the source and date. No guesswork.
Who to contact
A current director by name, and the company's registered office address.
Priority 1 to 5
Ranked by how urgent the need is and whether the company can pay for help, so you start at the top.
Size
Staff and net assets from the latest accounts. Where a company doesn't state them, we say so.
Contact details
Phone, website and email where we can find them. Not every company has them, but every lead has a director and an address.
Your area only
Set by postcode area, region or a radius around your office, and a company size band that suits your practice.

FAQ
About Beacon Leads
Where does the data come from?
Companies House: the register of companies, the accounts each company files, and its officers and people with significant control. Phone numbers and websites come from the company's Google listing where one matches.
How fresh is it?
Deadlines and lists are worked out every day. The overdue list is checked live at Companies House before you download it.
Who contacts the companies?
You do, under your practice's name. Beacon Leads tells you who to contact, how, and why now.
Can I keep my existing clients out?
Yes. Upload them as a suppression list when we set up your login, and add more at any time.
