Amanda Stichbury Financial

Amanda Stichbury mission is to be clients' first choice provider of specialists at Gold Coast Accountants. Adding valued consultancy services to assist them effectively managing their business in an ever changing risk environment.

While established industry professional guidelines, practices are an ideal base upon which to create your own operational and procedural practices, following these benchmarks will lead to business prosperity.

Gone are the days of the abacus, accountants have been trusted and respected allies to small business owners everywhere. Their intimate knowledge of the profession as well as tax laws in their jurisdiction will save you money almost every time. I know how tempting it can be to save a buck and do it yourself, but it’s almost never more cost-efficient in the end. An accountant will almost always find more deductions and keep you penalty-free. On that note, the cleaner your records, the fewer billable hours you’ll have to pay, so make sure you’re organized year-round. But when things get technical or taxes are due, save yourself the money, time and headaches and call in a trusted professional. We get the job done.
