About Officiency
Dedicated to helping sole traders and small business owners, Officiency takes away the fear and overwhelm of bookkeeping. I know your time and resources are limited. My mission is to provide tailored services to help your small business grow.
Helping sole traders & small business
Hi, I’m Hana, your registered BAS agent and bookkeeper who’s passionate about helping business owners such as yourself with their bookkeeping. Based in Melbourne (but offering remote services Australia-wide), I established Officiency back in 2019 to help sole traders and small business owners get to grips with their finances. I provide a range of flexible, transparent, and customer-first bookkeeping services tailored to your unique needs.
Why Officiency exists
Sole traders and small business owners often lack the time and resources to set up, manage and understand their books. Officiency is committed to eliminating the fear and overwhelm around bookkeeping. I offer tailored training and specialist advice for businesses wanting to manage their own books as well as ongoing services for those looking to outsource their bookkeeping.
My values
Customer-first
I always put your needs first and only offer services I truly think will help you and your business grow. I do not push fixed plans - I am fully focused on you and your needs.
Flexibility
My services are tailored to your needs, giving you the flexibility to choose how you want to work with me. I offer one-off, periodic, and ongoing services to support your requirements.
Transparency
I believe in setting you up for success, teaching you how to do it yourself and providing fully transparent services. There are no hidden costs, no catches, and no gimmicks.
Personalisation
My goal is to deliver the services YOU need. I take pride in tailoring my services to each client, so you get the most from your time with me, however long that happens to be.
Knowledge
I want to share my knowledge with you, so you are 100% confident in your bookkeeping. My training, consultation and support sessions are all focused on building your knowledge.
Flexible support to suit your business
Every small business is different. I understand there is no one-size-fits-all approach. My bookkeeping services are flexible to meet the needs of your business – now and in the future. As a certified bookkeeper and registered BAS agent, I can take care of as much or as little as you need. I am here to support you, wherever you are in your business journey.
