We understand that every small business is different; and so are your accounting needs. That’s why we offer two flexible ways to work with us: ongoing monthly support or a job-by-job service.
Monthly Package
Set & Forget
Our monthly packages are perfect for business owners who want peace of mind, consistency, and support all year round. With fixed monthly pricing, options can include:
- Regular BAS lodgments
- Ongoing Xero bookkeeping support
- Monthly profit check-ins so you’re not flying blind
- Early insight into tax bills—no surprises
- Unlimited quick questions via email or phone
This option is ideal if you want to stay on top of your finances, avoid last-minute scrambles, and build a proactive relationship with your accountant. You’ll know exactly where your business stands at any point during the year. Preparation of annual tax returns are not
included in the monthly fee structure.
Job-by-Job
Pay-As-You-Go
Prefer to engage us as needed? That’s completely fine too. Our job-by-job option means you only pay when you need something done, like:
- Annual tax returns
- BAS preparation
- One-off tax advice
- Tax planning
- Xero training
- ASIC updates or business changes
This suits clients who are confident handling most things themselves but want expert help
for specific tasks or at key times of the year.
Which One’s Right for You?
• If you like predictability, value support, and want to avoid surprise tax bills or interest from the ATO, monthly is the way to go.
• If you prefer to manage most of your books yourself and just need occasional assistance, a job-by-job approach might suit you better.
Still not sure? Let’s have a quick chat about your business and goals; we’ll help you make the right choice based on what’s going to support you best.
