You may have noticed we don’t post much. That’s intentional.

We’ve chosen to focus our time on helping our clients, not on chasing algorithms. While social media can be great for some, we’ve found it hasn’t delivered the engagement or connection we value.

That said, if you do like what we do, feel free to like or follow our page. It means you’ll be more likely to see any future updates — and it also makes it easier to refer us to your friends or family on Facebook. Most of our clients come from referrals, and we’re so grateful for that continued support.

Rest assured — our business is still open, still growing, and still here for you. If you need us, reach out the old-fashioned way: email, phone, or through our website.

Thanks again for being part of our community!

Welcome to 2025!

This week marks the first working week of 2025 for many of us - and although the recent weather has us wishing we weren't back into work, there is a long weekend just around the corner, making it a little easier.

I am excited to see what 2025 brings!

As one year ends and another begins, make sure you stop and take time to appreciate everything that 2024 has given you, taught you and the experiences you've gained.

Bring on 2025.

Christmas is coming....

If your business is shutting completely over the holiday period for an annual closedown period, you will need to ensure that you calculate your employees leave and Statutory Day entitlements correctly.

This year all of the Statutory Holiday (Christmas, Boxing Day, New Years Day and Day After New Years Day) all fall during the week, so there are less issues working out if the holiday is Monday-ised, however, employers can still run into issues with ensuring they pay their employees the right amount for their annual leave taken and Statutory Holidays, especially if employees work fluctuating hours.

You can find more information on www.employment.govt.nz website, or reach out as early as possible if you need hand calculating wages.

While it's traditionally an expensive time of the year, remember that most people will appreciate your presence over any presents - things will never replace moments so take time to acquire memories rather than stuff.

"One of the greatest presents you can give to someone is your presence".

With the holiday season quickly approaching, I wanted to provide advance notice that I will be taking time off over the holiday period to spend time with my family.

My official last day in the office before Christmas will be 20 December 2024 and I will be returning on 15 January 2025, however, I will still be available via email or phone for any urgent queries over this period.

I hope you, your family, and your friends, have a wonder holiday period.
