Affordable Accounting for Small Businesses – Any Recommendations?

[alicebrown]

Hi everyone,
I run a small online retail business based in Sydney and I'm currently looking for affordable accounting services tailored for small businesses like mine.
I’ve been doing my own books using spreadsheets and a basic free tool, but now that things are picking up, I feel it’s time to get a professional onboard—without breaking the bank.
I’m after someone or a firm who:

• Understands small Aussie businesses (especially sole traders or partnerships)
• Can help with BAS, GST, and EOFY reporting
• Offers clear, upfront pricing or fixed-fee packages
• Ideally provides cloud-based support (like Xero or MYOB integration)

Any recommendations for affordable accounting services in Australia? Or tips on what to look out for?
Would love to hear what’s worked for other small biz owners!
Cheers,

Hi there!

Totally understand where you’re coming from—as a fellow small business owner in Sydney, making the jump from DIY bookkeeping to professional support can be a game-changer (and a huge relief!).

If you’re looking for affordable accounting services tailored for Aussie small businesses, I highly recommend checking out https://affordbookstax.com.au/.

Here’s why they might be a great fit for you:

Specialise in small Aussie businesses – They understand the needs of sole traders and partnerships.
BAS, GST & EOFY support – They handle it all, so you don’t have to stress come tax time.
Upfront, fixed-fee packages – No surprise charges.
Cloud accounting support – They’re experienced with Xero, MYOB, and other platforms.
Local, reliable, and easy to talk to – No jargon, just straight-up support.

I’ve personally found having a dedicated accountant frees up time and headspace to actually grow the business, and they’ve helped spot some tax savings I’d never have found on my own.

As a tip—when choosing a provider, look for someone who communicates well and can explain things simply. Trust and transparency go a long way.

Hope that helps and good luck with your growing biz!
