Small business ownership is much like snakes and ladders – you take a massive step up and then you slide backwards.
Unlike the game, the more you play in your business – the luckier you get. Gather great people around the board, they can support you as you slither down and hold the ladder as you climb up.
Sing out if you’d like us to blow on the lucky red dice!
Wishing you a very merry Aussie Xmas and a Happy New Year!

We’re back at the desk after a week at Xerocon.
We had a great time reconnecting with our favourite app partners, chatting up some new ones, hearing where our industry might be heading, being motivated & uplifted and hanging out with our peers & friendly competitors.
There was a focus on AI, Will Buckley Xero AU country manager said: I’m going to be really clear: AI should not take anyone’s job in this profession. Building trust, having meaningful conversations informed by data, and harnessing the latest technology, is where the real magic happens.
Xero has announced the launch of the Xero Beautiful Business Fund, backing small businesses for the future. There is more than NZ$750,000 up for grabs. Regional winners will win $20k AUD and if you are 1 of the 4 global winners – another $50k AUD!
Good luck! We’ll be cheering you on!
Our office will be closed for the rest of the week so we can all attend Xerocon (coachella for accountants and bookkeepers).
How does this disruption benefit our clients?
We’ll come back refreshed with new ideas, more knowledge (and app options) and a better understanding of the world of small business.
See you next week!
