If any of these describe your week, you are not alone — and you do not have to keep doing it yourself.
One month you invoice $15K. The next, nothing. But rent, software subscriptions, and phone bills do not care about your project calendar.
Your laptop is for work and Netflix. Your phone is for clients and family. Your car takes you to shoots and to school pick-up. Where does business end and personal begin?
You know you earned "about $80K" last year. You are not sure what you spent. You definitely did not keep all the receipts. And your tax return is due next week.
Every item below is done by our team and reviewed by your CPA. You do not touch any of it.
Your books separate business from personal. Every deduction is captured. Cash flow is visible by quarter. And tax time is a non-event because the data was clean all year.
“I went from dreading my tax return to getting a refund I did not expect — because they caught deductions I did not know existed.”

You must register once turnover exceeds $75K. Below that, voluntary registration lets you claim GST on equipment and expenses — but means charging clients 10% more (or absorbing it). We model the break-even point for your situation.
Foreign currency income must be converted to AUD at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction (or a reasonable average rate for the period). We ensure FX gains and losses are accounted for correctly in your tax return.
