What being self-employed looks like...

I had carpel tunnel surgery today but those GSTs don't do themselves 😅😅

The fingers are certainly not going as quick as I am used to but I will get through them by Monday!

I am never going to make it as a Barista!

But that's cool because I know where to get the best coffee in town! 🤩

And that's how business should be, surround yourself with people who have the expertise so you can access that whenever you need to 🤓

Don't spend time trying to do something or learn something, if numbers are not for you then find someone who is likes them and connect 🙏

Life is to short and busy to spend countless hours doing paperwork, or perfecting your coffee cup art ☕️

Get a team, it takes nothing to ask for help and the results can be amazing, unlike this coffee creation 🤣🤣

Whoa, what a start to 2025!

Day 2 back in the office now complete and we have just finished the last GST return due tomorrow 🥵🥵🥵

Oct/Nov GST and 2025 Provisional Tax (P2) payments are both due tomorrow, 15 Jan 2025.

The end of November feels like months ago, so if your not sure if you have filed and paid yet you can log into your myIR account, and check your balance now 💰

If you need to set up an installment agreement with IRD TODAY IS THE DAY!

If you have questions give us a call 📞

Haha, yep that is 100% business 🤣
