What is bookkeeping?

Bookkeeping is the process of recording and reporting information on an organisation’s financial activities. During this process, important information on sales, expenses, assets and liabilities are recorded.​

Good bookkeeping practices mean your business maintains accurate records - so there are no discrepancies between what your business does, and what your business reports.

Why do I need to hire a bookkeeper?

Why would you need someone to record and keep track of your finances, rather than do it yourself? ​

Alongside the legal requirements to accurately file these records with the IRD so you pay the proper amount of GST, a key benefit is you have someone keeping track of your money. This way, you can be sure you’re not spending outside your means. ​

This is especially important if you’re a small business owner, as it can be difficult to keep track of everything when you're wearing all the hats. Give yourself one less headache, and save yourself some admin time.
