What a Small Business accountant Melbourne can do to help you in your business

As your small business accountant, we are in the background, offering strategic advice and support when needed. Business is full of surprises and opportunities and the occasional frustration. We act as a sounding board for many small business owners who need that opinion or advice to move forward when there is a fork in the road.

Business Strategy

A small business operates and grows in an ever-changing environment. As a small business accountant, we aim to help you focus and develop a strategy. Having a plan is better than no plan!

  • Setting goals
  • Using our Valuebuilder system
  • Monitoring your goals via budgets and performance
  • Help you look for new ways to grow the business

Tax and keeping the ATO happy

Most small business owners’ interaction is often to do their tax lodgments. The list is exhausting: income and company tax, Bas, GST, CGT, FBT. You get the idea! Gartly Advisory is a Registered Tax Agent and helps businesses keep complying.

We can advise on tax strategy around lodgment, payment and planning.

Falling behind with the ATO is no fun, but we can help you manage the situation. One likes paying taxes, but paying the correct amount is important. The team at Gartly Advisory keeps abreast with small business tax breaks and ensures you take advantage of any Government support and initiatives.

Exit strategy & future proofing your business

Everyone has a use-by date, so this factor needs to be factored in in running a small business. Geoff, as a small business accountant, also understands business exit planning. Sitting down and having an honest conversation about estate planning, your business, and you are a great way to plan a happy future. Not every accountant has that skill set, but it is something that Geoff Gartly has the knowledge and experience to help you.

We have been really happy with Gartly handling our tax for many years, and recently they assisted my husband and I start our own business. The whole process was smooth and easy, and I always know they are just a phone call away if I need anything.
