Bookkeeping Services Melbourne β€’ Registered BAS Agent

Melbourne bookkeeping without adding another person to your office.

Your bookkeeper does not need to sit across the road to know what is happening in your business.

My Great Bookkeeper provides professional remote bookkeeping services for Melbourne businesses, including Xero bookkeeping, payroll, BAS, GST, bank reconciliation and bookkeeping clean-ups.

We work remotely with Melbourne small businesses using secure cloud bookkeeping systems. Real people. Real bookkeeping. No pretending we have a Melbourne office when we do not.

Melbourne is busy enough. Your bookkeeping does not need to join in.

Customers need answers.

Staff need paying.

Suppliers need money.

The ATO would also like a word.

Somewhere in the middle of all that, the books still need to be right.

A familiar small business story

The business grew. The bookkeeping became an evening activity.

It usually starts small.

A few invoices. A handful of expenses. A bank account that is easy enough to reconcile.

Then the business grows.

There are more customers, more supplier bills, more payroll, more GST and more things somebody needs to remember.

The bookkeeping that once took an hour now follows you home.

Good bookkeeping should take financial admin out of your head β€” not give you another job after dinner.
Four bookkeeping stories we know well

Which chapter is your Melbourne business in?

These stay on this page, so press the bunny and turn the story over.

🐰 Story 01

The books fell behind.

One busy month.

Then another.

Now Xero contains several unexplained chapters.

We work through the backlog, reconcile the accounts and correct the bookkeeping.

No judgement. Just better books.

🐰 Story 02

BAS is due. Again.

GST needs checking.

The bank needs reconciling.

The deadline appears extremely confident.

🐰 Less drama

BAS likes current books.

Regular bookkeeping makes BAS part of the normal business cycle instead of a quarterly rescue mission.

Accurate first. Lodge second.

🐰 Story 03

Payroll has a plot twist.

Leave.

New starter.

Different hours.

Someone tells you at 4:57pm.

Press the bunny β†’
🐰 Better ending

Keep payroll boring.

Good payroll should be accurate, repeatable and properly recorded.

People paid. STP handled. Carry on.
Press again ↩
🐰 Story 04

β€œWe're busy. Where's the money?”

Customers are there.

Sales are happening.

The bank balance seems less impressed.

🐰 The useful bit

Let the numbers explain.

Good bookkeeping helps show what is happening with cash, costs, debtors and margins.

Busy is not the same thing as profitable.
