FREE Initial Meeting With A Business Accountant Based In Perth

To get started working with our business accountants, we need to arrange a Get To Know Each Other meeting.

Book Now

This is a free meeting (businesses only) that is typically around an hour in length and helps us both determine if we are a good fit.

Clients We Work Best With

A couple of the main things to think about as to whether we would be the right fit are:

  1. Do you want the confidence and peace of mind of going with high-quality accountants and business advisors?
  2. Do you already generate $1million+ in revenue, or do you plan to grow your business to $1million+ in revenue? (We help businesses with $0 to $100m+ turnover.)

If the answer to both those questions is yes, then we are most likely a great fit, no matter what stage of business you are in.

Price For Future Services

Typically, from here it is less about “can we help you” given you’ll find out during our meeting that we definitely can, it’s more about “do you want to pay for high-quality advice and assistance?”

We’re quite upfront about this and hopefully you can appreciate we bring up price early in our correspondence for the simple purpose of making sure neither of us are wasting our time if you’re not willing to pay for our premium service offering – As a high-quality accounting and business advisory service provider we have a minimum annual price of $3,000.

Trying to keep this topic short, we have a fair pricing policy (click the link to see the menu of prices too), which in essence is about saying we offer a premium accounting service and want to work with clients who want this. If that’s you, then we look forward to helping you grow your business well into the future with wealth protected and taxes legally minimised.

More about the specifics of the meeting are below.

Meeting Agenda

The meeting can take place in-person at our Perth headquarters, or if you’re located elsewhere in Australia then we can also do the meeting over Zoom.

During the meeting we typically cover these items:

  1. We obtain your consent to record the meeting. This is for quality control and efficiency. We use secure AI software to help prepare meeting notes, which allows us after the meeting to more quickly respond to what you need.
  2. We discuss your expectations of the meeting to align on what we will and won’t address during the meeting.
  3. We let you know that no question is off limits and please interrupt us if we’re not making sense. We know that tax and accounting can be complex and whilst we always try our best to make things understandable, we appreciate that it’s difficult to understand and we’re more than happy to explain things in different ways and several times to help you understand.
  4. We let you tell your story – what are you planning, what’s your situation and goals, and what challenges would you like our help with.
  5. We’ll add our experienced insights to help you understand how we can help you with those matters.
  6. We can provide a short history about Munro’s, what our firm stands for and what clients say about us.
  7. We will outline our recommendations of how to proceed after the initial meeting.
  8. We will check back in to see if you agree that expectations of the meeting have been satisfied and ensure you don’t leave uncertain of what will happen next.

Before the Meeting

To allow us to best prepare for the meeting and assign to an appropriate accountant, we request the following information about the business and your/owner’s circumstances:

  1. What are the main reasons for you seeking our help? What help do you want from us?
  2. What does the business do?
  3. Who are the owners?
  4. What is the business structure? Sole trader / partnership / family trust / unit trust / company?
  5. How much revenue do you make/anticipate making on an annual basis?
  6. What profit do you make/anticipate making on an annual basis?
  7. How many employees do you have/anticipate having?
  8. How much of the owner’s money has/is going to be injected into the business?
  9. Are you taking out a loan? If so, approximately how much? Do you have equity in assets (e.g. real estate) to use as security for the loan?
  10. What, if any, other income do the owners and their partners (e.g. wife/husband/spouse) make on an annual basis and from what (e.g. employment/rentals/investments)?
  11. What assets do the owners and their partners own, including the approximate value and amount of any associated loans?
  12. What are your medium to long-term plans for the business(es)?

If you could also please provide a copy of your most recently completed financial statements that will be helpful.

After the Meeting

After the initial meeting, if we both want to work together, then we typically get to work on fully scoping the services you need and agreeing to a mutually beneficial engagement agreement with clear pricing terms for the first 12 months.

We look forward to meeting with you soon.

    David and I have been loyal clients of Munros for many years—I think since we were married in 1962. David made all the decisions in those early years. I became a more active partner as we worked with Ted Wilhelm and Ian Arblaster until their retirement. We then worked with Christine Prasetia for our financial, accounting, taxation and our wills until David’s death in May, 2017. Christine has patiently guided me through taking up the reins of our business venture. She is very efficient and totally reliable in all our dealings. I feel fortunate to have Christine as my accountant and business advisor. Thanking you, Val McAlpine

    I highly recommend Munro’s for their brilliance and hard work. Saul, Sanjay and the Munros team are highly capable and passionate in their dealings with their clients and have been a strong pillar in navigating through my Taxes and Accounting over the past few years. They are exceptionally knowledgeable in their field of expertise and up to date with the latest policies/requirements and very easy to work with as they understand the client’s needs. I want to express my sincere gratitude and thanks to especially Saul and Sanjay for their professionalism, great advise, friendly attitude and major efforts in assisting me with my Taxes/ accounting. I couldn’t have asked for a better team than Munro’s.

    Munros have been doing my family tax returns for the past 3 years, and I’ve been nothing but delighted with the service they’ve offered. They took on a relatively complex set of returns, including sharing of CGT benefits between myself and my partner, and did exactly what I hoped they’d do, and more. Not only that, they always went above and beyond to explain what they have done and why, keeping us happy and at ease at all times during the tax return processes.

    And to top it off, their knowledge of the crypto space is phenomenal, as are the tools they’ve developed to report and get the best possible returns with cryptos in mind.

    Give them a try, I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.

    As soon as I saw that Munro’s were recommended by the cryptocurrency tracking app CoinTracking for tax advice, I knew they must be absolute pros.

    Munro’s will be my accountants for life now. Nothing was too much trouble and everything has gone so smoothly.

    Here’s what Carl fixed for me for my latest tax return:

    reconciled complex history from various crypto exchanges, some of which are now defunct, which I had spent several days trying to get various AI models to assist with to no avail

    fixed my balance issue in CoinTracking to accurately reflect my position

    Corrected purchase and sales history for employee shares scheme

    Adjust various mistakes from my previous accountants and carry forward the adjustments

    Scrutinised previous tax returns to adjust missed capital losses from a kitchen renovation completed over a decade ago on an investment property that can now be used to offset future capital gains.

    Provide clear advice on every single thing I asked with no hesitation. It’s so obvious that these guys have seen it all and done it all.

    Because I’m with Munro’s now, I feel SO much more confident about some big financial moves where the nightmarish tax implications would otherwise boggle the mind.

    Thank you so much!

    By the way, I wasn’t asked to do this review or sent one of those “please review us on Google” emails. I am posting this because I’m so happy with the service I was provided, it sells itself and I suppose a perfect 5 star rating with 140+ reviews is a testament to the fact that all of Munro’s customers have a similar experience to me. If you have complex tax affairs I don’t think you’ll find anyone better.

    Excellent accounting service with a deep understanding of tax implications for SMSFs.

    I was very impressed with Munro’s accounting service. Before I engaged with Munro’s, I met with accountants across Australia, but I decided to go with Munro’s because of their breadth and understanding of taxation.

    Brian from Munro’s was able to quickly and efficiently complete my 2023 tax returns, and also provided additional advice and expertise on how I could better structure my affairs.

    Originally, I briefed Munro’s to wind back my SMSF due to the administrative burden of managing it. However, Munro’s was able to clearly understand my affairs and prepare the tax documentation in a way that reduced the administrative burden. I was so impressed with their service that I decided to continue with the SMSF after all.

    I highly recommend Munro’s to anyone looking for an accounting service with a deep understanding of taxation and SMSFs.

    Happy 50 years !!! I joined Munro’s in 1974 just close to when the accounting firm had started, Don Munro was my accountant at the time and helped greatly in all my various problems and successes and he still remained a very dear friend to me; now Simon Strawbridge is looking after me and I can only praise all the work that he has been doing for me not only in accounting, but also in advising my various legal problems and investments.

    I can only say well done to the whole team and hope that I will still be their client in the coming years.

    Our Munro’s Experience began approximately 38/40 years ago. Steve’s parents were already customers of Munros, in particular Barry Virgo, and we followed suit.

    For the first couple of years we had several changes of Accountants at Munro’s (we always got the newbies and had to ‘train them up’ to know how to get the best deal from the Tax Office for farmers. We became fed up of this system. Our last newbie was Simon Strawbridge. Well, we got him “trained up right proper” then they wanted to give us the next new one, but we stated we weren’t changing.

    Today, Simon is still our go to man. Whilst we understand there have been many very efficient people working in the background on our business affairs, for which we thank them sincerely, we have always maintained our professional relationship with Simon.

    We have been through some big business changes in our farming adventures over these past 40 odd years, and the advice, help and professional assistance has been 100%. At times we didn’t know who to trust to give us the best business advice and we were fortunate to be able to lean on Simon’s vast knowledge to help us make these decisions.

    Our working partnership of having our taxation needs, investment portfolios, wills, etc. linked in with Munros and the great staff has been successful.

    We first met Mike Beer 25 years ago, when he was assigned to our account by his employer at the time. When Mike moved to Munro’s, we decided to transfer our business to follow him as we were so impressed with both his professionalism and his character.

    We have never regretted our decision to keep our business with Munro’s and Mike, who we think of as a good friend first and a total professional second for the excellent service he and his company have provided.

    Congratulations Munro’s on your anniversary!
