Liston Newton helped us move our accounting over to Xero. Their Accountant managed the set up and training so we felt comfortable with the software. We now have all our processes streamlined which gives us improved visibility of our business performance. This has allowed us to open 2 more stores without a significant increase in administration effort.

Our accountants will help your Donald business flourish

Locals have thrived on our proven strategies for decades

We disagree with the familiar adage: business is always personal. You’ve invested countless hours and invaluable effort into building and running your business. Every win is personal; so is every loss. We take your business as seriously as you do. That’s why our process works. We’ve got the awards to prove it.

Our Donald office has welcomed budding entrepreneurs with ambitious ideas and stalwart business owners with expansionary zeal. Each has stepped through our doors in need of help keeping their business’s finances stable. And they have always found the help they needed. Our local business accountants can help you:

  • Seamlessly transition towards automated accounting
  • Design tax-minimising business asset structures and accounts
  • Plan, model and review growth-focused business strategies

Please don’t mistake our confidence for arrogance. We’ve put in the work to be able to deliver consistently insightful, straightforward and actionable business accounting advice. Just ask our clients.

Our recipe for your business success

How we get you set

The first phase is all about establishing the fundamentals of your business and creating a strong foundation to build from. You also need to establish your long-term goals so you have a clear idea of what you're working towards.

  • Plan your goals
  • Structure your business and assets
  • Online accounting
  • People and HR
  • Protect your business and personal risk
  • Business and personal will

How we get you moving

The second phase is about gaining a deeper understanding of your business; how to make it more efficient and experience sustainable growth. This is where you transition from working in your business to working on your business.

  • Understand your numbers
  • Delegate bookkeeping
  • Systematise and automate tasks
  • Minimise tax
  • Forecast cashflow and capital needs
  • Quarterly coaching and accountability

How we get you free

The final phase is when all your hard work really starts to pay off. This is when you start using your profits to build your personal worth to a point that give you financial freedom—the freedom to work only if you want to.

  • Understand wealth creation
  • Investment portfolio
  • Investment property
  • Superannuation
  • Succession and exit planning
  • Your legacy

Our local team has deep roots in the area, and we’re always looking for new ways to use our business accounting expertise to help local entrepreneurs achieve their dreams. Naturally, our first step was to become members of the Donald Chamber of Commerce and Industry. 

But, as sports aficionados, we also happily support several local sports teams, including:

  • Donald Football Netball & Hockey Club
  • Donald Field and Game
  • Donald Tennis Club
  • Donald Lawn Bowls and Golf Club

Frequently asked questions

Should I have an internal business accountant?

If you’re looking at hiring an internal business accountant resource, first ask yourself why you need it. Hiring a new person can be a significant expense for a small business. If you’re looking for support managing your books, then it’s worthwhile looking into a bookkeeper instead. If you’re worried about cash flow or need more financial management support, consider partnering with an external business accounting firm, too.

Our business accountants in Donald are here to help you simplify your expenses and grow your business without the headaches.

Do you provide accounting services for small businesses?

We provide expert and experienced accounting services to businesses of all sizes — but small-to-medium business support is our specialty. We have the knowledge and expertise to help you improve your cash flow, optimise your financial management, and manage better budgets. Together, we’ll put processes in place to make your business more tax effective for the long term.

Will I lose control of my business accounting if it's outsourced?

This is a common concern we see among small business owners. But by partnering with local business accountants in Donald, you don’t lose any control. In fact, you’re getting better oversight over your business in general.

Rather than giving up control, you’re working with a team that provides more accuracy and efficiency in your accounting. We help you understand your finances better, so you can make more informed decisions.

How much does business accounting cost?

Business accounting prices will vary depending on what you’re looking to achieve. In addition, the size and complexity of your business, whether you need a few services or our full accounting suite and your preferred method of delivery and frequency of communications with us, will affect the price structure.

But you can rest assured that every dollar you spend on outsourcing your business accounting is an investment. It helps you get more time back in your day, ensures your accounts are completed accurately and efficiently, and ultimately, helps you become more profitable.

Contact a Liston Newton Advisory business accountant in Donald to discuss a tailored solution today.

We believe in cutting costs, not corners

Though still in their infancy, emerging technologies like ‘artificial intelligence’ have become powerful enough to convince many business owners that they are not the future of content creation and strategy, but the present. In their efforts to remain progressive, competitive and cost-effective, many business owners and even business accounting firms are happy to trust AI with their strategic thinking. We don’t do that here.

AI is not a magic wand — it is a tool. While it can simplify and streamline many critical accounting tasks, it is incapable of creating effective, personalised and forward-thinking strategies. At Liston Newton, we leave that to our experienced human team.
