  • Episode 219: I Wish Someone Told Me This Before I Registered for VAT - Katie Godfrey
    Apr 27 2026

    In this episode of The Life of KG, Katie Godfrey talks about one of the most requested (and most avoided!) topics for business owners, VAT and tax.


    If you’re a salon owner, aesthetic clinic, lash tech, brow artist, nail tech, hairdresser or training academy owner in the UK, this episode is a must-listen, especially if you’re approaching the VAT threshold or already VAT registered.


    As your business grows, your tax responsibilities grow too. And while it can feel overwhelming, VAT registration is often a sign that your business is scaling successfully.


    Katie shares:

    · What happens when you hit the VAT threshold in the UK

    · How VAT registration works with HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC)

    · The impact VAT has on your pricing and profit

    · Common mistakes beauty business owners make with tax

    · Why paying more tax usually means you’re making more money

    · The mindset shift required when stepping into CEO mode

    · Why moving abroad (including to Dubai) doesn’t eliminate financial responsibility


    This is an honest, straight-talking episode designed to remove fear around VAT and help you feel more confident managing the financial side of your business.


    If you’ve ever Googled:

    · “VAT for salon owners UK”

    · “When do I register for VAT UK?”

    · “How does VAT work for service businesses?”

    · “Why is my tax bill so high?”


    This episode breaks it down in simple terms, without jargon, without panic, and with real-life experience from someone who’s navigated it herself.


    Remember: growth comes with new levels of responsibility. Understanding your numbers is part of becoming the CEO your business needs.
