REALLY listening to hear the other person helps us extend the grace that we often need. Listening to simply respond won’t cut it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63211a47af1db1608435abf4/76c01c98-a1a5-4724-b7ec-9c4aad10b484/Wedding+photo.jpeg Blog - 5 things we apply to our business, that we learned from our marriage. - Tomorrow is never guaranteed. Recently we’ve been to a wedding and a funeral and the take home for us was that people have so much love for each other - but we don’t want to wait for a special occasion to show that. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63211a47af1db1608435abf4/647d2da3-f2ae-4226-9bd0-2820429da364/IMG_0132.JPG Blog - 5 things we apply to our business, that we learned from our marriage. - We make your life easier by removing the stress of bookkeeping, financial statements and succession planning.

Who is actually allowed to do your BAS? - You can outsource your Business Activity Statement to a BAS or Tax Agent. Don’t want to do it yourself? No stress. You can absolutely outsource this one. It is critical that you use someone who is licensed to do this work if you opt to pay someone outside your company to do it for you. You should absolutely check they are registered with the Tax Practitioners Board which you can find at tpb.gov.au/public-register - any licensed BAS or Tax Agent will come up in this search (just make sure you have your spelling correct). Any registered Tax Agent will show up in this search - so you can make sure your accountant is qualified here as well. This search would also bring up any breaches of the Code of Professional Conduct and sanctions imposed that are on the public record. https://www.kindredaccounting.com/blog/laura-higgins monthly 0.5 2024-09-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63211a47af1db1608435abf4/1722302401781-Q9DMFSSSSFWN1D7A96LY/LalaSocialClub_July-26.jpg Blog - Are you leaving money on the table?

Sometimes the things beneath the surface aren’t always front of mind in our meetings, so digging a little deeper can be really critical for our planning with you. It comes down to competing goals - minimising tax is usually about reducing your profit… applying for a loan or getting the best possible price when you sell your business is about maximising your profits.
