Our Process

Step 1. Initial Consultation

The process usually starts with a phone call. Whether you know exactly what you need from your bookkeeper, or have no clue about what to expect, talk to us about your business, experience and requirements, and we’ll come up with a plan to ensure your financials are managed in the most effective way.

Step 2. Research & Foundations

Because of the breadth of our experience, no matter what the circumstances, we are ready to hit the ground running. We will go through your accounts and make sure the usual accounts are reconciled and up to date, if we find errors we will sift through and clean up any mess that we may find. We’ll go through all records and documentation to ensure everything is up-to-date and exactly where it needs to be. We’ll set you up on the best system for your needs and assist in training if required.

Step 3. Remote Integration

Once we’re satisfied the foundations are all in place, we’ll ensure we have everything we need to begin working remotely on whatever aspects of your financial operations you need support with. From this point forward, you can completely let go of the administration-burden that comes with managing your financials. We’ll keep things ticking over in the background, meaning you can feel safe in the knowledge that everything is being managed exactly as it should be.

Step 4. Providing a Clear Direction

Our goal is to develop strong, trusting, ongoing relationship with our clients. We like to think of ourselves as an extension of your team, effectively managing all assigned bookkeeping duties, day-in-day-out, so you’ll always have the clearest picture of where your business is at financially.

Why Choose Us For Your Bookkeeping Services?

Reliable team based in the mornington peninsula

We are a professional bookkeeping service based in the mornington peninsula, committed to supporting companies to efficiently and accurately manage their financial processes. If you’re a business owner in the mornington peninsula area in need of a quality bookkeeper to save you the time and stress associated with staying on top of your financials, Clients Needs Bookkeeping can help!

Solutions tailored to you

Our advanced accounting knowledge enables us to consider your current approach, before identifying inefficiencies and streaming your processes. By letting us take such an admin-heavy and often frustrating aspect of running a business off your hands, you’ll reap the rewards of efficiencies that most business owners simply can’t achieve by undertaking such tasks themselves.

Our strengths

We know the numbers aren’t every business owner’s area of passion or strength. For many, bookkeeping feels like a necessary evil. Engaging an outside expert who lives and breathes the financial side of business, will allow you to heave a sigh of relief. What’s more, you’ll be able to use the time you’ll save to focus on your core business activities, or even enjoy some extra leisure time!

 

  • We’ll take those large piles of paperwork and multiple spreadsheets, and bring them together to create a more efficient and manageable system, tailored to your needs.
  • Our online live accounts system allows you to access your accounts from any location 24/7, so you’ll always know exactly where you’re at.
  • Relying on the knowledge and experience of an accounting professional will give you peace of mind that your financial and legal obligations are being properly fulfilled.
  • Get time back to do the things you enjoy the most, like family time, eating out or time on the golf course!

Transparent pricing

Engaging Clients Needs Bookkeeping is ultimately a more affordable option than employing a new member of staff to manage the financial area of your business, or training up an existing member of the team. Getting them up-to-speed and strongly equipped to handle the often complex nature of financial reporting effectively is a long process.

Our experience

Our wide-reaching experience means we know the financial space inside and out. We know how best to manage your accounts, invoicing and tax matters for maximum benefit. Essentially, your business will benefit financially from our smart approach, and you can rest easy knowing we have taken care of all legal obligations and compliances to the letter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hidden
What is a bookkeeper's role?
Detail-orientated, a bookkeeper tends to be much more involved in the day-to-day financial aspects of a business than other financial service providers. We add value to your business all year round, rather than just at tax time or during a crisis, by providing an external perspective and a detailed, impartial view of where you business is at, what is being done well, and what could be improved.
What’s the difference between a bookkeeper and an accountant?
Your accountant will mainly focus on profit and bottom line, with a view to sorting out your financials at the end of the financial year. They won’t typically take an in-depth look at what’s going on inside your business, and in that way are not quite as invested in the same hands-on way as your bookkeeper.
Why do I need a bookkeeper?
For many people in business, figures and financials aren’t a natural part of their skill set. The processes involved are complex and admin-heavy, and even if you put the hours in, there’s still plenty of margin for error if you’re not an expert in the financial field. A bookkeeper will therefore save you time, and take away the stress associated with ensuring your books remains up-to-date and your financials are reported in such a way that will serve your business well.
Hidden
I am behind in my BAS and tax; how do I get up to date?
No drama! We can get you up-to-date quickly and with ultimate accuracy. Simply provide all bank statements, receipts and invoices for the relevant dates, and we’ll cast our detailed and expert eyes over them all, methodically working through and putting all data into a format that makes sense. We’ll use the outcomes of this work to prepare the profit loss and balance sheet, which you’ll need to present to your tax agent. We aim to assist companies in the lodgement and preparation of their BAS returns on time, in a way that fulfils their legal obligations.
I'm not on Xero, can I still use your services?

Xero is just one of a number of online accounting packages commonly used by businesses and bookkeepers in Australia. It’s the central portal that captures and stores all crucial financial information, presented in a user-friendly format. It’s all about making your financials easily accessible and easy-to-understand. At Client Needs Bookkeeping we don’t just use Xero. We also use two other comparable packages, Quickbooks and MYOB. In fact, MYOB is our preferred system.  We enjoy its streamlined approach, ease-of-use and its ability to speed up every job where xero is a bit more limited in its approach.

While we know some businesses are still storing their financial information using their own manual systems, to work with Client Needs Bookkeeping you’ll be required to migrate to one of the three packages mentioned. We promise, you won’t regret it. And our team will even be on-hand to walk you through the process and get you up to speed with everything you need to know about your new, crucial business tool!

What are your bookkeeping service rates?

We offer a fixed-rate pricing model, ranging from $100 per month for subbies, to $190 per month for small businesses, Once we start on payroll we have a payroll activiation fee of $100 then for additional employees we charge $40 per employee but a discount if you have more than 10 employees.  See our pricing page for further information about what each of these fees includes.
