As one of Australia’s best-known names in bookkeeping for accountants and businesses for over two decades, we know there is more to the equation than just getting the maths right. In business as in our personal lives, every relationship needs a foundation of common values. That doesn’t mean you agree on every little thing – we’d be in trouble if it worked like that – but it does mean you share some basic principles, truths that form the boundaries and guidelines of your partnership. Whenever you are struggling to find common ground, you can come back to these touchstones and regain your equilibrium.
The values themselves will vary from case to case: “all people deserve to be treated with dignity” is one few of us would argue with; “we are only responsible for ourselves” would be more controversial. At Achieve Business, everything we do is guided by five principles: precision, trust, value, accessibility, and expertise. In this article, we’ll discuss why these things matter to us, what they mean for our customers, and how they drive our actions.
Precision
While the unique needs and goals of each business mean the bookkeeping process will look slightly different from one case to the next, something that doesn’t change is the need for precise, accurate records. A single digit out of place can create unnecessary admin work, cost you money, and lead to all sorts of headaches. Not only do we have the skills and experience to identify, fix, and avoid common bookkeeping errors, but our commitment to our customers also means we take accuracy personally. We are meticulous about following established processes to ensure our work is completed to unimpeachable standards.
Trust
The purpose of having a professional manage your financial records is that you don’t need to worry about it, so you can spend time focusing on the parts of your business where you are needed most. If you can’t trust a bookkeeper to be accurate, diligent, and honest, why hire one at all? Our reputation has spread by word of mouth over many years of hard work and unwavering service, making us one of Melbourne’s most trusted and sought-after bookkeepers.
Value
While you can certainly find cheaper bookkeepers out there, you’ll struggle to find one that offers better value. There are plenty of agencies that seem like a bargain until you have to pay for all their oversights and cut corners. Our team doesn’t do patch-ups or take shortcuts. We offer a personalised, thorough service that you can rely on to get it done right first time, every time.
Accessibility
Things have a way of happening fast in the business world, and serious dilemmas can erupt in the space of hours or even minutes. Being available when you need us is something we consider an essential part of our service, and we strive to be as accessible and responsive as possible by phone and email.
Expertise
We hire only the most qualified and skilled bookkeepers and BAS agents, and we have a work culture that prioritises ongoing professional training and development. We pride ourselves on staying ahead of the curve, which means you’ll never be caught off-guard by changes in ATO legislation and will benefit from the latest technology and processes.
