How we start working together

Four steps, and you'll know the fee before the second one.

  1. First conversation

    Twenty minutes, free, with a partner. Tell us where things stand and you'll find out if we suit you, and who would look after your file.

  2. One page, one price

    What we'll do, by when, and the fixed fee, on a single page. We start once you've signed it.

  3. The move across

    We collect your files from your current accountant with a signed authority, so you don't have to ask them.

  4. Quarterly check-in

    Your partner goes through the numbers with you and writes down what to do next.

What it costs

No hourly billing. The fee is agreed in writing before the work starts.

Questions owners ask us

Does the fee ever change?

Only if the work changes. Anything outside the page you signed is quoted in writing first.

How do we move from our current accountant?

You sign an authority and we ask them for your files. You don't have to have the conversation.

Which software do you use?

Xero and MYOB. If you're on something else, we'll talk about moving you across.

Who is our contact day to day?

Your named partner, and one accountant who works on your file every month.

Are you registered tax agents?

Yes, with the Tax Practitioners Board. Sam and Robin are both Chartered Accountants.

Start with a short call.

Jesse takes most first calls. You'll find out if we suit you, and what your fixed fee would be.
