Welcome to this weeks’ episode of The Australian Small Business Show!

Today we’re staying on the accounting theme, and unpacking how to select the right accountant for your business.

For many of us, Kristy-Lee included, this has been a pain point in the past.

Matt unpacks for us the various qualifications, certifications and licences your accountant should have, and how you can check if they actually have the qualifications they say they do.

We also speak about the difference between the qualifications of an accountant and financial advisor, and whether the same person needs to be both for your business.

Importantly, depending on your needs, we discuss whether you need a specialist accountant, or a series of specialist accountants to handle your requirements, or is in fact a one stop shop the best option for you.

Finally, but most importantly we talk about the need to find an accountant that works with you, communicates with you the way you like and who you feel comfortable working with.

If you're an Australian Small Business Owner, we'd love to connect with you on socials.
