Bookkeeping for Bondi businesses

In the industry chart below, drawn from the ABS areas that the page's figures cover, professional, scientific and technical services sit on top, and that kind of firm usually has retainers and project fees to invoice and chase. The work happens in the business's own accounting file, on Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks, and each month closes with every account reconciled and a list of who still owes you, oldest debts at the top.

How we serve Bondi businesses

  • Retainers billed and followed through

    Monthly retainers and project fees are invoiced on schedule from your records, each client payment is paired with its invoice, and overdue amounts are flagged by client.

  • Property income and outgoings by address

    Rent comes in against the right address, and so do outgoings like repairs, insurance, council rates and strata levies, if your software offers property or class tracking.

  • Card and loan accounts checked against statements

    Alongside the everyday bank account, we reconcile business cards and loans to the statements issued for them, and send you questions about anything we can't trace.

Services for Bondi businesses

What Bondi business owners ask

The figures name SA2s, not the suburb. Why is that?
The ABS reports its population estimates and business counts at the scale of Statistical Areas Level 2 and doesn't break them down by suburb. That's why each figure carries the name of the SA2s it covers.
Our consultancy runs on monthly retainers. Can you manage the invoicing?
Yes. Retainer invoices go out or get recorded as each falls due, payments are paired with them and clients who fall behind are listed. Money a client pays ahead of the work is handled the way your accountant directs.
The business owns a rental unit too. Can its figures sit apart?
Yes, if your software allows tracking by property or class. Rent and the unit's costs are tagged to it, so its income and spending read separately from the consultancy.
Is switching software part of the deal?
No. Whether it's Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks, your file stays put. We log in to it, and your history, contacts and reports carry on there.
What details help you put a quote together?
Write to us via the contact page naming your software, every bank account, card and loan the business holds, and the last month that was reconciled. A quote for that work reaches you before anything begins.
