The Flow

Your books are looked after, your GST is filed, your payroll runs on time — and you don't have to think about any of it. The Flow is ongoing bookkeeping done properly, by someone who actually knows your numbers.

How it works

1

Onboarding

We review your Xero file and current workflow, then agree what I take on and what stays with you.

2

Setup

Bank feeds, coding rules, approval flows and a documented monthly calendar so nothing is left to memory.

3

Monthly rhythm

Reconciliations, payables and receivables, payroll and GST all run to schedule — every period, same standard.

4

Reporting & review

Monthly reporting you can actually read, plus a regular check-in on what the numbers are telling you.

What's included

  • Daily or weekly bank reconciliations
  • Accounts payable and receivable
  • NZ GST returns prepared and filed
  • Small business payroll processing
  • Job costing and margin reporting where relevant
  • Monthly reporting pack and year-end handover to your accountant

If your systems aren't ready for an ongoing arrangement yet, we start with The Fix and move into The Flow once everything is running properly.

Behind the work

The same hands every month

Your books aren't passed around a team. I get to know your business, your numbers, and the way you work — so the monthly rhythm stays consistent and quietly thorough.

“Thank god I worked with Carla. The pain of being a new start-up navigating complex international tax via Stripe would have caused future issues had Carla not done a full audit of my Xero. Appreciate her services and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”
