Frequently Asked Questions

How does your bookkeeping service work?

Our bookkeepers are employed by us and work from our Pukekohe office. We work as part of your team providing a fully outsourced bookkeeping function to support your business.

We manage the day to day account processing including sales invoicing, payroll, debt collections, GST, Month End, Cashflow reporting and more.

Our hourly charge rate starts from $80+ gst per hour depending on the assistance you need.

Do I need to have an accounts department?

Not at all. If you are a small business owner, or new to business and don’t have your own staff to run the day-to-day financials this is where we come in. We also work with those businesses who have an accounts team but need to outsource a particular function.

We do everything that a typical accounts department would usually do which removes the pressure from you, and leaves you with more time to work on other areas of your business.

How does your marketing support service work?

Our marketing support is designed to save you from hiring an employee to fill this role.

We’ll work closely with you to discuss your goals and then provide a customised plan to achieve these. Whether it’s sending regular newsletters, updating your website with blogs or other content, or getting your business humming on social media.

Will you come to our premises?

All our work is completed from our office and we remain in constant communication with our clients. If there is a need to come onsite for a particular purpose we can build this into your contract. A Travel charge is included in all contracts if applicable.

Are your bookkeepers certified?

Yes, all our staff are industry trained and certified including payroll and employment law.

We have continuing education as part of our membership requirements and a code of ethics to abide by. We have Xero and MYOB certified trainers who are qualified to train your staff and troubleshoot any issues in your software.

Do you do end of year accounts and tax returns?

We are not accountants. We prepare your Year End accounts for your accountant to review and finalise.

We build good relationships with our clients’ accountants and work alongside them for you.

We believe a good accountant and bookkeeper is important at Year End to ensure your tax is managed correctly.

What information would I have to provide to Red Office so they could do my bookkeeping?

We need access to your Xero or MYOB file.  If you have an “accounts@” email address for your company we use this for all your comms or can help to set this up.

We request ‘read-only’ access for your bank accounts to enable quick verification on balances and to set up batch payments.

We get myIR access to ensure timely filing of your PAYE and GST. If your business uses other software as part of the accounts process we will also need access.

We never make any payments or complete transactions that are not authorised first.

All our batch payments, payrolls, end of month workpapers are reviewed by one of our trained reviewers before they are handed onto you for quality control.

You have control over your payments, we do not authorise bank payments.

My accounts are not up to date, can you still help me?

Definitely, it’s what we do. A lot of clients come to us when they have fallen behind.

We work on an hourly rate basis for the first three months to get the file up to date and then put a service retainer in place from your 4th month onwards. From this point we have everything in place so there are cost efficiencies for all.

Who do I contact if I want to talk about my accounts?

If you’re already on board with us you’ll have your own bookkeeper or accounts manager, plus access to a hub coordinator. Your bookkeeper will be your daily contact.

If you’re new or just enquiring, get in touch so we can give you a proper run down of how we can help you.

Can your team use the software we already have in place?

Most often, Yes. Some of our clients prefer comms through Slack vs MS Teams, others prefer a particular payroll software. If it works and is the right fit, we can pick it up and run with it.

When can I start services with you?

Anytime! Call us today on 09 963 1897 to have a confidential chat to see how we can help.

Alternatively, drop us an email at info@redoffice.co.nz with your requirements and we’ll get back to you.
