Fixed-fee accounting, from tidy books to a part-time CFO

Management

Proactive performance analysis and insights.

• GST-Ready Bookkeeping?
  This is your financial foundation. We code every transaction in Xero and reconcile all bank and credit card accounts monthly. Your books stay accurate and organised, so they're ready for GST returns, provisional tax and year-end at any time.
• Essential Reports?
  Your core financial statements, delivered monthly by the 25th: Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet and Cash Summary. This is the core financial data showing what happened in your business.

• Budget vs Actual Tracking?
  We'll work with you to build a simple, easy-to-understand annual budget, then load it into Xero alongside your monthly Profit & Loss. You'll see exactly how your business is performing against plan, line by line, in one place.
• Cash Flow Analysis?
  A deep dive beyond the standard statements into your transaction-level spending. We identify spending trends, calculate your cash burn and runway, and find specific opportunities to cut costs. The findings are presented in your Financial Review.
• Internal Controls?
  We'll help you strengthen financial security by designing practical controls: approval workflows, user access in Xero and your bank, and a proper supplier set-up process that verifies bank account details and GST numbers to protect against errors and fraud.
• KPI Dashboard?
  We go beyond the standard financial statements to track the key operational measures unique to your business on a simple, visual dashboard.

  You work directly with a Chartered Accountant who knows your business, with no hand-offs between people and guidance tailored to you at every step.
• Financial Review (Monthly)?
  A monthly video review (under 10 minutes) of your Essential Reports and the findings from your Cash Flow Analysis. It gives you a clear summary of performance and prepares you for your quarterly Strategic Planning meeting.

  We guarantee a timely reply to every question during business hours (Monday to Friday, excluding NZ public holidays). The response time gets faster, with more direct ways to reach us, as you move up the plans.
