Service, Quality and Cost

As we noted above, obtaining a quote from just an initial conversation from your prospective accountant may not be as simple as you hoped. As with most goods and services, there is generally a trade-off between price and the service (and quality of that service) that you receive. As they say “Price is what you pay, value is what you get.”

We have seen so many small businesses over the years with such poor financial records, no processes in place and worst of all the owner(s) of the business have not had any assistance from their accountant understanding their financial position. Not all accountants are created equal!!

With the advent of cloud based accounting platforms (Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks etc – more on these in a later blog) and other business related technological developments, the accountant’s role should be easier than it has ever been. A lot of the grunt work previously charged for by accountants is now automated or can be completed relatively easily and accurately (hopefully!) by the business owner.
