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.

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

In this weeks episode we are focusing back on the numbers side of business. For many of you this is the time of year that you may be working with your accountant to get your year-end finalised and tax returns lodged. And you may thing that your accountant will proactively filling you in on all the things you need to know and do, in order to improve things for next year. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.

Today Matt is sharing 6 key questions he thinks every business owner should be asking their accountant right now.

These questions centre around:

• Looking at business structures and assessing whether it’s time for a change;
• Asking about cashflow improvements
• Are there ways to pay less tax(legally)?
• What about changes to legislation, does any of that impact you?
• Is it time for professional financial advice;
• And of course how is your business performing?

Being proactive with asking your accountant questions like these helps ensure you are maximising that relationship and making appropriate changes, updates and improvements to support your business moving forward.
