What We Can Do
We know that clients don't see much value in end of year financials and tax returns. Don't worry, we don't find it very exciting either. We do it, but the additional services we offer is where the real excitement is.
Compliance
This is the core reason a client gets an Accountant. End of year financials, tax returns, GST returns, we can do it with ease.
Tax Planning
We make sure you are legally paying the least amount of tax possible and check that position three times a year to make sure you are not over or under paying.
Cashflow Forecasting
Cashflow planning aims to predict your profit and cashflow position over a given period of time. This allows for better overall planning and gives us a position to measure performance throughout a year. This is also often what banks will ask for if you are looking at lending.
Management Accounting
This is different to compliance Accounting. Management Accounting is what we do with clients looking to measure their performance throughout a financial year. It can go hand in hand with cashflow forecasting to measure financial metrics. It also forms a great basis for discussions for coaching clients.
Business Advisory
This service aims to help business owners formulate plans and provides insights into areas of their business they may not have thought about, or are unsure of how to go about doing things. Think things like business plans <br /> or process/software reviews.
Xero
For those starting a business or switching from another Accounting system, we can get you set up and trained in how to use Xero. It is the primary Accounting software that we recommend. We have completed over 2,000 Xero implementations, becoming experts over the past 20 years.
vCFO
This service is for clients that want a Financial Controller to run their finance functions without having to pay for someone full-time. We won't lie, it isn't cheap but it is cheaper than having an in-house financial controller. You get our expertise working within your business for an agreed amount of time every week.
Mentoring & Coaching
Sometimes all a business owners needs is someone to bounce ideas off and keep them on track. We can and do provide this service to clients. Mentoring is less formal and focussed on listening and providing advice. Coaching is a more structured program over a period of time where we give you deeper insights into what it means to run a business and stay accountable.
Business Valuations
You may be looking at buying or selling a business, or just want an idea of how much it is worth. No matter what the reason we can work with you to provide a business valuation that is fit for the industry you are in.
Bookkeeping
We get it, you didn't start a business to have all of your time taken up by collating receipts and punching things into your Accounting software. By outsourcing your bookkeeping to us, we will take care of the boring stuff and free you up to do what you do best, working on your business.
Payroll
This can be incorporated into the bookkeeping offering or be a separate engagement. We can help you set up a payroll system or work with what you already have to ensure your payroll is processed on time, everytime.
Entity Setup
Whether you want to operate as a Sole-Trader, Partnership, Company or Trust, we can advise you on the pro's and con's as well as take care of any set up needs for you.
Contracting
Whether you run an Accounting Practice or a Commercial Business. Sometimes all you need is a helping hand for a short period of time. We are happy to be engaged for a short period of time to help ease the burden and make your life easier.
Consulting
Often a one-off engagement. There may be a special piece of work you need help with. Looking at buying a business, changing software systems, organisational reviews, if it has a finance function to it, we can help. Even if you are an Accountant in Practice we can come in and help advise you on the best way to make your systems more efficient and even complete any implementations needed.
