Advice and tips for Australian Businesses
Did you know, Maree is a BAS agent too!!!
Here are some important facts:
THE FACTS
Since 1 March 2012 all skilled bookkeepers are required to be registered with the Tax Practitioner Board as a BAS Agent. To be registered as a BAS Agent you require:
• 1000- 1500 hours of experience
• Be a member of a professional association
• Complete a Certificate IV in Financial Services Accounting / Bookkeeping
• Complete successfully a Board approved course in basic GST/BAS taxation
• Continue their education on a ongoing basis to qualify to KEEP that registration
• Purchase Professional Indemnity Insurance annually
NOT ALL BOOKKEEPERS ARE LEGAL
Not all Bookkeepers in Australia are registered, educated or BAS agents. Actually, some of these bookkeepers are Virtual Assistants, or unskilled offshore individuals with no formal qualifications, others are freelancers on Airtasker, so next time you outsource, makes sure they have all the necessary qualifications and experience.
Maree is a qualified bookkeeper and BAS agent with over 20 years’ experience, registered with the Tax Practitioner Board as a BAS agent.
You are in safe and qualified hands with Maree.

Happy clients….
Check out some recent testimonials that I have received.
Just so chuffed to receive the feedback I do from happy clients. Honestly, I love what I do and when you receive these kinds of testimonials it makes what I do as a bookkeeper so worth it. As you will read below, these clients are not local, so when I speak with new clients who are unsure about outsourcing to a bookkeeper who may live on the other side of Australia, then feel free to call these clients yourselves

Maree also works in Conjunction with a Tax agent and so co-ordinates my tax as well, so I only have to deal with one person… Now I don’t need it yet, but Maree is also a registered BAS agent so it’s good to know that when the time comes in my business to need someone to complete my BAS maree is able to handle this as well, and if I need an administration tasks done she is also a VA.

Review 2:
In running the pub, I just don’t have time to worry about my bookkeeping, with rostering and ordering stock to worry about so Maree is responsible for my entire bookkeeping function. She set up my MYOB. She handles all my data entry and bank reconciliations and BAS. Plus, she handles all my payroll needs processing of weekly wages, quarterly super and my end of financial year payment summaries. I am extremely happy. I feel that my Bookkeeper is really on top of things, keeping my records up to date, and more importantly ensuring their accuracy. I would have no hesitation referring Maree’s Mobile Bookkeeping to anyone who is looking for a competent and efficient book keeping service. Doug – Coronation Hotel Portland NSW.

A start up business can still benefit from outsourcing to a bookkeeper
Just because you’re a start up business and think you may not be able to afford outsourcing when you’re just starting your business, this is where you are wrong.
Outsourcing to Maree’s Mobile Bookkeeping isn’t expensive and this is where many young businesses fail. As your only starting out, many new businesses in their 1st year don’t know their numbers and this is where a bookkeeper can help. Also, if you look at outsourcing your bookkeeping, you can spend more time growing your customer base and increasing sales and in that 1st few years in business, this is where your focus should be, not worrying about your books.
I see many new businesses fail because they don’t outsource and if you start off on the right foot in business, the biggest success is outsourcing your bookkeeping right from the start.
