Thinking of hiring a bookkeeper? Here are some things to consider first.

Straight Up Small Business

As we’re nearing the end of the financial year, bookkeepers are busier than ever. We are reminding clients about paying superannuation to get tax deductions, preparing for single touch payroll finalisation due in mid-July, capitalising and depreciating assets, and accruing expenses that relate to this financial year in order to get a tax deduction. The list goes on.

Needless to say, if you are looking to hire a bookkeeper during this time of year in Australia, you’ll be hard pressed to find one because most bookkeepers close their books during this busy season.

So when is the right time to engage a bookkeeper? And when you find one, what can you expect out of a relationship with a bookkeeper?

In this episode, I answer these questions and more as I talk about how and when to choose a bookkeeper that suits your unique business, and some considerations to take on board if you’re looking to engage with a bookkeeper in the near future.

I also bust some common myths about hiring a bookkeeper and share why businesses of all sizes can benefit from having a bookkeeper as part of their team. Throughout this episode, I also discuss the different services a bookkeeper can provide your business and why it’s important to find someone who has experience working with other businesses in your industry.
