Frequently Asked Questions

How does a good accountant add value to my business?

Preparing financial statements and a tax return is a small part of what a great accountant will help your business with. As a trusted advisor we work with your other advisors (lawyer, financial planner, banker, etc) to provide you with holistic advice to ensure you reach your business goals, identify investing opportunities, and to protect the wealth you have worked hard to generate over the years.

Our customer service sets us apart from other firms. We understand our clients are busy running their businesses and raising their families, therefore we make it a priority to provide them with proactive business advice that allows them to maximise their profits and achieve their goals.

We primarily use one system, Xero. That being said, we will work with other systems depending on your preferences and needs. For more information, please give us a call on (02) 4989 9741.

All our prices are fixed and are quoted upfront. We believe clients should know what they will pay and at a price both parties agree to at the beginning. We do not charge hourly rates.
Pricing for our services varies by your business’s needs and the complexity of your financial records.

If you’re looking to change accountants, there could be various reasons why you have reached this decision. Some of the common reasons we hear are:

  • ​My accountant is not providing me with proactive advice
  • I pay too much tax
  • My accountant doesn’t do anything beyond the basics I want to deal with the owner of the accounting firm
  • My accountant is slow at replying and does not answer my calls

We can assure you, at Velich Advisory, we are doing our best to break these old routines.
Once you have decided to change accountants, the process is simple and we will handle it for you. However, we like to operate in good faith, so we recommend our clients contact their former accountant and let them know that their circumstances have changed, and they are changing accountants.
