Bookkeeping, BAS and payroll for sole traders, subcontractors and creatives.
Registered BAS Agent.
We can come to you in South East Melbourne and North Brisbane
or work alongside you online.
The receipts live in the ute, the wallet and three different drawers
You do not know what you owe until the ATO tells you
BAS week costs you a weekend and a good night's sleep
You have been meaning to catch up for a while now. A long while.
If you nodded at any of those, you are in exactly the right place. No lecture. Just a plan.
Whether you need a little help or the whole lot handled, here is what that looks like. We are a registered BAS Agent for tradies and subcontractors as well as every other kind of small business.
First we connect your bank to your accounting software so every transaction flows through on its own.
Then we match your invoices and receipts and code them correctly, so everything lands where it belongs.
No shoeboxes. No hard copies to keep. And still completely compliant with the ATO.
If you have staff we will set each person up with set and forget pay templates, the correct award rates and the right tax and super at every pay run.
Payslips go out automatically. That is one less thing to think about on a Thursday night.
We check your GST, prepare your BAS and lodge it with the ATO on your behalf. Monthly, quarterly or annually, whichever you are set up for.
Then we drop the payment straight into your bills so the due date cannot sneak up on you. No guesswork and no last minute panic.
As a sole trader, subcontractor or individual you can lodge your annual return through myGov yourself.
But if you would rather not guess, we will prepare it with you, so you meet the deadline and claim everything you are entitled to.
Shhh 🤫 Please do not stress. It happens to the best of us and far more often than you would ever guess.
We have helped plenty of people who had not lodged a BAS or a tax return in years. We can talk to the ATO on your behalf, catch everything up and ask for late fees to be waived where we can.
No lecture. We promise.
Brand new ABN in your hand and a first BAS on the way? That mix of excitement and what on earth have I done is completely normal. Good bookkeeping for start ups in Australia mostly comes down to getting set up properly at the very beginning, and that is exactly what we do.
We take the numbers and the admin off your hands, we explain things properly and we never make you feel silly for asking.
Big ideas are your strength. Deadlines, paperwork and admin can pile up until it all feels like too much. We get it. So we have shaped the way we work around the way you think.
You bring the big ideas. We will keep the paperwork moving quietly in the background.
Sometimes the day to day is not quite enough. When you are planning ahead, applying for finance or simply want to understand what the numbers are telling you, we can put the following together for you. Each one is quoted before we start so there are never any surprises on your invoice.
You know what you owe well before it is due
You know what you actually earned this quarter
Your evenings stop disappearing into paperwork
You make decisions with real numbers instead of a gut feeling
That is when running your business starts to feel good again.
We work in Xero, QBO and the other major accounting platforms, including our very own LedgerSnap which we invented and tailored for sole traders. We'll set yours up properly if you haven't got there yet.
Thirty minutes with us costs you nothing. Tell us where things are at, honestly and we will tell you exactly what we would do first.
