Bookkeeping for Brunswick & the Inner North

Principal Bookkeeper
Brunswick is one of Melbourne's most active small business precincts, a mix of creative studios, trades and allied health. It is also a place where owners tend to run lean, which makes clean books, tight receivables and honest reporting matter even more.
True Tally works exclusively in Xero, supports conversions to Xero, and actions payroll through our own HR subscriptions. We keep you accountable to your targets with Fathom reporting and stay candid about what the numbers show.
What Brunswick Business Owners Get Every Month
- Bank reconciliation all accounts reconciled within the first week of each month
- BAS preparation & lodgement lodged on time, every quarter, by a registered BAS provider
- Payroll & STP Single Touch Payroll compliant, superannuation lodged on schedule, actioned through our own HR subscriptions
- Xero maintenance & conversions categorisation, bank feed rules and chart of accounts kept accurate; migration to Xero if you are moving across
- Fathom reporting a plain-English monthly dashboard so you can hold your business accountable to its targets
- Accountant-ready year-end files clean records that reduce your tax preparation cost
Creative, Hospitality and Trades in Brunswick
Brunswick's creative studios and agencies need project and retainer reporting and disciplined receivables. Its hospitality venues carry award-heavy payroll and thin margins that have to be watched weekly. True Tally handles both, plus the trades operators working across the inner north who need job-aware bookkeeping, TPAR and clean GST.
Whatever the sector, we advise on business systems and process optimisation, tightening approvals, software and workflows so the business runs more smoothly and the books stay clean.

Is your current bookkeeper adding real value?
A few honest questions worth asking about whoever keeps your books:
- Bank reconciliation is your bank account in Xero actually checked against your bank statement every month, not just left to auto-match?
- Speed that adds value are your accounts reconciled quickly enough that your management reports are current and worth acting on, not weeks behind?
- On-time compliance is your Single Touch Payroll being filed on time, every pay run?
Cheaper service does not always mean better service. We invest in continuing professional education so we deliver genuine value, not just the lowest price. As we get to know your business for the long term, we review your expense-saving opportunities and recommend better setups and cost-effective ways to cut your overheads.
