Business Advice and Structuring

Business advice

Let us work with you to realise your dreams and help your business reach its full potential.  Good strategy and tax planning are essential for all businesses and one of our favourite areas of being a tax accountant. You don’t have to do this on your own!

Business structures

We often get asked to set up a company or trust. But before we do, we always ask – why? We‘ll look deeply into your business and ensure the right structure is set up for you, for both today and in the future. This is where good tax planning really comes to the fore.

Bookkeeping

Having your bookkeeping and tax under the one roof means your business information is at our fingertips. We can then use it to meet your tax obligations, create meaningful reports (eg budgeting, cash flow), tax plans for the future and so much more.

We are a paperless office and a certified Xero Gold Champion Partner.

Special Professional Income Averaging is available to people who work in creative roles in creative industries, and professional sports people, subject to various criteria.  If you think you might qualify as a Special Professional, or did in the past, then please get in touch.

We support you in achieving your goals.

Working as a sole trader in the arts, it can be challenging managing your finances effectively as you're a creative first and a businessperson second. Jac and her team communicate clearly, concisely and quickly, always make time for my 'stupid' questions, and help me understand things so I can take charge. I feel supported and trust that I'm getting bang for my buck. I've referred a number of other artists to them, and everyone has been delighted by how different it is working with accountants who know your industry inside out.

We have had the pleasure of working with Cassell & Co for 4 years. The biggest difference for us is Jacquelyn’s clarity in communication to ensure all important decisions for our business are made with confidence. They spend the time to make sure we are well informed and really understand the financial workings of our business.

Cassell & Co are the only accountants I found that understands that money isn't everything. Rather than only work towards financial wealth, we regularly map out my life goals and Jac organises the financial side to make it happen
