Here’s what some of our happy customers have had to say about our Newcastle Bookkeeping services:

Karen of ‘Balanced Beans’ tweaked our chart of accounts to provide us with more relevant information specifically for our business reporting needs. She also introduced us to Hubdoc which has made entering receipts easier and paperfree. Karen has assured we lodged our BAS on time! Which wasn’t going to happen otherwise."

Cleve Pedracini

Business Owner
"Brodie and her team are incredible! I run a small business and as it's grown my time on the accounts has dropped and they have been able to pick up that extra work. Coming out of covid and a previous dodgy accountant, Brodie and her team have been VERY thorough and fantastic communicators throughout!"

"Karen and the team at Balanced Beans have been assisting TruBlue Engineering since December 2020. In addition to providing book keeping & payroll services, Karen has taken the time to understand the "Projects" application within Xero and assist us tracking our profit margins for each project. The friendly and professional approach to their work make it easy and enjoyable to work with the Balanced Beans team".

Steven Headley

"Balanced Beans have been incredibly helpful in sorting out our business taxes. Professional, friendly and proficient."
"We cannot speak highly enough of the hard work and dedication that Karen has displayed since taking our family owned business on. In nearly 8 years of trade we've never had this level of advice, support and professionalism. We finally feel like we can breath again knowing everything is being done right"!

I am constantly impressed with their level of organisation, attention to detail, and wealth of knowledge.
