Small Business Accountants
Our experts provide strategic business consulting and tax advice for business owners
We know you’re not Googling accountants for fun.
You’re here because you’re not getting the advice, service or help you want.
Maybe you’re just starting out, or maybe you’ve been doing whatever it is you do for years. Either way you’re looking for an accountant that will be right for your business.
There’s thousands of accountants you can work with, and of course we do all the usual stuff you’d expect from an accountant like financial statements, tax returns, fringe benefits tax, Business Activity Statements, tax planning and more.
There’s nothing special about any of that, so how are we different?
Honestly we’re not for everyone – and not everyone is for us.
If you’re looking for a super serious, iron your undies bean counter – we’re not it.
If you’re looking for down to earth, practical people, who believe you can have a personality and still be professional – then we’re in with a shot. Because all tax accountants can do a tax return – it’s the relationship you have with your advisor that matters.
More Than Filing In Forms
We’ve got more to offer to businesses than just filing in forms. We work with business owners to set a tax strategy, and then implement it. But to plan your taxes we need to know you, whether you want to reinvest in the business, take more cash off the table for your personal life or start a whole new business. Once we know what you want to do, we work with you to do it in the most tax effective manner.

A Safe Set Of Hands
The right accountant for you is the one you trust. You should be able to trust they will get your tax returns, Business Activity Statements, and Fringe Benefits taxes lodged on time and correctly. You shouldn’t have to second guess whether they’ve got your affairs under control. You’ve got enough to do running your business, you shouldn’t have to worry about your accountant too.

How does your pricing work?
All our pricing is fixed, agreed in advance and paid via direct debit. And for those that qualify we offer a 12 month payment plan at no extra cost where we spread the costs of the year’s services over 12 equal instalments.
Each year we will send you a new proposal with updated pricing and schedule of services.
Should you require additional services in the period we will provide you with a proposal for those services before we do any work. That way you are always in control.
What happens after we enquire?
After you submit an enquiry we will organise a time to for a free video meeting or phone call at a time suitable for us both. This meeting can go up to 30 minutes long and is a chance for us both to get to know each other, find out what you are looking for and whether we are a good fit for each other.
If we both agree that we can work well together and deliver you the outcomes you are looking for, we will provide you with a proposal for our services which will outline the services, costs involved and our terms and conditions. Once that is accepted there are some compliance requirements we need to satisfy such as ID verification and tax agent linking on the business portal. But we will outline all that in detail once that time comes.
Do you do individual tax returns?
We only do individual tax returns for those individuals who are part of a business group (e.g the shareholders/directors) we do the accounting for, and for those with substantial investments and investment structures such as family trusts or self-managed super funds.
How do you work with clients?
We work with our clients through a combination of email, phone, video and if the case requires it, face to face meetings.
