What do you think of our new branding?

You may have noticed a change to our email signature, which includes our refreshed branding. The purpose behind our brand refresh was to better encompass how our service offerings to our valued clients has evolved. We also wanted to better highlight some of our key partners and associations, such as with Master Builders and the Hospitality Association.

All Accounted For & Partners

Our new branding will be rolled out in stages, so you might see a mix of old and new for a while, but don't worry, it is the same team behind All Accounted For, with founder and director Ben Duflou at the helm.

 

More exciting news is that our website is getting on overhaul - stay tuned for an announcement soon.

Get set for summer

Don't leave things to the last minute! Start making your business plans for summer now, so that you can make the most of the holiday season. Here's some helpful tips and suggestions from business.govt.nz to get your sorted - including staff leave, Christmas party etiquette and maintaining cash flow over the holiday period.
 
Holidays and leave

Holidays and leave

All employees working in New Zealand are legally covered by the Holidays Act (2003). Understanding your obligations as an employer makes it easier to work out leave entitlements and approve leave applications — leading to happier, more productive employees.

Host Responsibilities

Host responsibilities

Putting on an end-of-year celebration for your employees is a great way to say thank you for a busy year. If you choose to offer or allow alcohol at your function, make sure it’s supplied in a way that fits with your workplace alcohol policy. Do you have one?

Holiday Cash Flow

Holiday cash flow

Over the holiday period, irregular cash flow increases a problem many small businesses already face. In order to combat this, get December and January invoices out early. Prioritise your bills and remember you might have tax to pay by January 15th.

Wellington Night Shelter - Street Appeal

The Wellington Night Shelter provides emergency overnight accommodation for men experiencing homelessness and does all that they can to create a sense of home and community. This is especially important around Christmas time, which for some, can be a time of loneliness and sadness. The Street Appeal makes a huge difference to the lives of these men.

Wellington Night Shelter

 

This year, the Street Appeal is taking place in central Wellington central on Friday 13th December, so please support this cause if you're able to. If you're at the top of Cuba Street over lunch time, look out for two of our team members, Sarah and Adam who will be out assisting with the collection.

 

If you would like to provide any support or assistance to the Shelter, please email: fundraiser@wellingtonnightshelter.org.nz, or view the event on Facebook HERE.

Client Profile

 

Billie Brook Photography

Hello! My name is Billie and I have one of the best jobs around. I thrive on connecting with people (and animals!) and I have been photographing weddings and families throughout New Zealand and internationally for seven years now. I still leave at the end of the evening feeling elated and full of joy.

 

I truly love my job and I feel grateful that I get to spend my weekends capturing precious memories for my couples and their families. My work has been described as candid, colourful and full of all the emotions of a wedding day. Have a look at my website and see for yourself...

Here's what she had to say about us too. Thanks Billie!

 

"I've been with the All Accounted For team for over six years now and they've been integral to my business's financial growth and success.
They are quick to respond to my questions with helpful solutions and advice. I feel very safe and secure with them and would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a supportive and intelligent group of accountants!"
