Tech-savvy virtual bookkeeper, Accountant and Business Advisor

 

Passion Business Advisors is a tech-savvy virtual bookkeeping, accounting and business advisory firm providing small businesses with the tools and technology to grow their business, improve efficiencies and achieve their financial goals.

 

Our promise to you

We seek to add value to your business.  Our objective is to work with you to help your business grow.  We do this by providing the skills and experience of an MBA qualified accountant on a part-time basis. We are easy to work with and provide flexibility in the way we communicate with you.  You will receive more attention from us than the accountant next door.  

Our Beliefs and Values

Meaningful Work – We don’t just tick boxes we work with you to set goals and help you achieve them.  Whether your goal is to increase sales, improve cash flow or business performance we are always looking for ways to add value to your business. When planning for the future of your business, we provide insightful information to give you clarity about your direction.  

Efficiency – We aim to make your business more productive and to get things done in the most effective way possible. We hate wasting time and money.  We love to create order and help your business achieve maximum productivity.  Effective systems can help you feel in control of your finances and your time.

Growth – Growth is about helping you build a profitable business and it is also about continually moving forward so you don’t get left behind.  We love to keep up to date with the latest software and technology to make sure we deliver the best service possible.  We also understand that change can be overwhelming and we want to help you keep up to date with the least amount of interruption to your business.

Integrity – Trust and honesty are important to us.  We recognise that bookkeeping involves having access to highly personal information.  As a member of CPA Australia and the Tax Practitioners Board, we have ethical standards to uphold, but they are also part of our culture.  We want to ensure that you comply with laws and regulations so that you can sleep at night.

Passion –  We love to work with people who are as passionate about their business as we are.  We love to see you light up when you talk about your business. Working with numbers is fun for us and we want to make sure they are presented in an easy to understand format so that you can get excited about it too. 

Why Passion Business Advisors?

The name Passion is a combination of my name, Sharon, and my partner’s name, Patrick.  I spin on Brangelina if you like!  I like working with numbers, but what I really love is working with people who are passionate about what they do.  People who light up when they talk about their business. So the name Passion is a combination of these things.

A bit about me

I have been around business all my life.  I grew up in Griffith and my dad ran a building company which my brother eventually took over.  I have been an accountant for over 20 years.  I grew up in Griffith, NSW and worked for a Chartered Accounting firm while completing my Bachelor degree by correspondence.  I also completed CPA qualification and earned the High Achievers Award on graduation.  After several years, I moved to Newcastle and worked as a Manager at a large accounting firm.  I had the opportunity to work with a range of businesses and a great team and stayed in the role for over 10 years.  

Wanting a change from Chartered Accounting, I went to work as finance manager for a Newcastle real estate business.  I loved this role because it was a chance to work closely with the business owner and management staff.  We were able to work together to  develop processes and procedures to improve the business. 

In 2019 I made the decision to move to Albury to be closer to my family and it has been the best decision.  It has also allowed me to pursue my passion project and start Passion Business Advisors!

We’d love to hear from you
