“Before working with Shac I found it all difficult. Boxes of loose receipts, my accounts not ready for the tax year, invoices with lots of errors and going out late. I didn’t really understand what I needed to do.

It is so easy now. Shac has set up invoicing systems that I don’t even have to worry about, helped organise my accounts and track expenditure across the different streams of my pakihi, so I have a better understanding of the true costs and profits. I get paid on time and consistently. I never have to worry around my GST and taxes, which is such a relief.

Shac is down to earth and explains things in a way that makes sense and is easily understandable. I can ask any pātai and she takes the time to explain things, sometimes multiple times until I understand. I always feel well supported knowing I have her to tautoko.

My accountant doesn’t have to chase me up as much each tax year because Shac does the bulk of the mahi during the year keeping everything in order.”

“When I started working with Shac, I had basic knowledge of Xero and no experience submitting PAYE or GST. I now feel much more confident with intermediate to advanced tasks within Xero and have a much better understanding of how GST works and how to file.

Shac really takes her time explaining things and making sure I understand the process. She uses simple terminology but also makes sure I understand the technical terms and why things need to be done a certain way. Her approach is easy going and supportive, no question is wrong.

We often do training and record it so I have a video of the process to refer back to for future tasks. Shac’s support and training has ensured our bookkeeping processes are correct and up to date. She’s easy to contact when needed, but also works independently and quietly in the background.

She is a great person to deal with, very easy going and has a hilarious personality which makes for enjoyable interactions.”

“Understanding everything was difficult. The added stress at the end of the day trying to get it right was a nightmare, it was like having another job role that I didn’t understand but had to master.

Since working with Shac, I have more time at the end of the day with my daughter and get to enjoy the simplicity of life.

Shac keeps things plain and simple, easy to understand, with no decoding words after a meeting. I can go to her with just about anything and she will go above and beyond to help, even if it’s outside her usual scope.

I would recommend Shac without a doubt, I have recommended her multiple times already.”
