Can my business afford your services?

Each aspect of your engagement is performed with accuracy and efficiency. You will also find our fees equivalent to, or more affordable than a contractor or employee, except that you will find our services far superior and value adding. Our skilled team will help you achieve more in your business.


How are your fees structured?

We work much like an accounting firm, but at significantly lower rates. Each staff member is assigned an hourly rate depending on their skills and experience, and we will assign the most appropriate staff member to the engagement. We are able to offer fixed price agreements for a number of our services.


Why hire a bookkeeper?

BAS and Bookkeeping is an essential part of any business - not only to meet statutory compliance (e.g. ATO), but to also provide an accurate financial position of your business.

Engaging our services will save you time and money. You will reduce costly end of year accounting fees, as your books will be tax accountant ready; and we charge much less than your tax accountant to perform this function.

Instead of employing a bookkeeper, you save money in the form of employee overheads. You pay for what you use - so you’re not paying for downtime during quiet periods. Our costs are also fully tax deductable.

By engaging us, you are paying a fully trained and reliable accountant that is fully engaged with your business. We can identify risks and opportunities to help you better run your business on a day to day basis.

We are fully trained and registered, and keep up to date with the latest in GST and tax rulings.


What accounting packages do you use?

We are Xero partners, and as such we recommend the use of that package. However, we are experts at navigating other accounting packages such as MYOB, Quickbooks, Finance 1, SAP and Oracle. We also have advanced skills in the use of Microsoft Excel.

We would like you to work with our employees/bookkeeper or tax accountant. Can you work with them?

Our experienced team can oversee and support your employees or bookkeeper, and can supplement any work currently undertaken by your tax accountant.

How can you help my business?

To run a successful business, you need to focus on what you are good at. Keep those operations that define your business and will drive its success in-house. The things that you are not so good at can be outsourced to someone who is skilled at that. That's our business.


  • You get superior efficient expertise, where you only pay for what you need.
  • Stress less and enjoy having your business under control. You have your finger on the pulse and can react to opportunities with confidence.
  • With Adelaide Business Partners you get more than an accountant. You get someone who understands your business and has wide business skills, knowledge and expertise.


Can you assist me with special projects?

Many of the services we offer may be ‘one-off’. For example, you may just require a special report to be prepared, or need help with a finance submission. Please contact us for more details.
