Get the low down on Beany from the people who count.

Accounting was really daunting. Now, it’s booked in my schedule, but it's something I don’t stress about anymore. I have the peace of mind to focus on my business and am learning how to manage my accounting as I continue to work with Beany - which is ultimately what I’m paying for.

Big shout out to Chantal, my amazing talented tax accountant. She’s got a huge amount of patience, (which she needed with me as a client) and great technical understanding. I’ve appreciated your prompt responses and actions. Thank you for all your support over the last year in getting out my annual accounts.

When I need accounting support, I get it. Beany takes the pressure off me; they take away all the grind work and make the process efficient. You’re paying a reasonable rate and getting the best connection. It’s hard to find accountants that work and understand the not-for-profit space, so I always say check out Beany.

Beany means I don’t have to deal with the headache of bookkeeping and accounting. I can go in at any time and see how we’re doing, whereas typical accountants wouldn’t interact with you until year-end. Everything is straightforward and uncomplicated. With Beany, you describe what you need and you can get it.

When I started InfluenceWorks, I felt confident within my industry knowledge, but super under confident around the financial side of things. My Beany accountant went above and beyond, giving me step by step instructions on everything I needed to set up and even giving me super helpful tips about things outside of the financial realm.

Getting set up on Beany was simple and painless, they even took care of the switch for us. Our accountant Jenny never hesitates to get involved or come up with solutions or advice for new or different scenarios that seem to regularly pop up. Unlike experiences with larger firms, we’ve always felt we get value for money; Beany isn’t low touch, low cost.

We spoke to lots of firms, looking for someone who understood small business and would take the time to get to know us. Julian solidified our choice; he’s a good listener, he didn’t talk over me, and offered valuable information. I always get a friendly response from the support team straight away and get extra info that I actually need.

KarenKaren Van HuffelDirector, Think Resourcing

Accounting is like a chore to me. Using Beany means I’m still in control, but when I have a question it gets answered straight away. It’s all so seamless. Even though Beany is all online, I have a connection with my accountant, Rebecca. She makes me feel like family. Beany is easy, hassle-free, and always a step ahead.
