Perth's Art Of Numbers

Do your business reports actually make sense to you? You're not alone. If you run Xero, this is for you.

If everything lives in your "Ask My Accountant" tab... we need to talk 😅

Your Chart of Accounts is the mind map behind your reports — it's where every dollar gets sorted into Income, Expenses, Bank, Assets and Liabilities. When that makes sense in Xero, your Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet finally make sense too.

Course 1 of The Art of Business Collection — Understand Your Business Numbers — live online 31 October for Perth small business and Australian tradies and family businesses. Small group, plain English, no silly questions.

Hosted by Tara Lieschke, Registered BAS Agent, Perth. Educational info only, not tax advice.

Women in business, how often do we try to do everything?

We build the business, look after our clients, manage the day-to-day, juggle family and life, make a hundred decisions... and somehow we're also supposed to understand every number sitting in our accounting software.

But understanding your numbers shouldn't be something that makes you feel overwhelmed or like you should already know the answer.

You can learn this. And you don't need to be an accountant to do it. 💚

After more than 20 years working with small businesses, one of the things I love most is helping business owners have those little “Ohhh... now I get it!” moments.

Because when you understand what your reports are actually telling you, there's a confidence that comes with it.

You can ask better questions.
You can make decisions with more certainty.
And you can feel more in control of the business you've worked so hard to build.

Your Chart of Accounts is where that understanding begins.

You know your business.

You know your customers. You know your trade, your product or your service. You’ve probably learnt a ridiculous amount just by running a business every day.

But then someone hands you a Profit & Loss and suddenly it feels like you're supposed to speak another language.

You’re not.

You don’t need to become an accountant.

Yes, that's a spider web in my beautiful string of pearls.

🌿 BE A PLANT. 😂

Sometimes work gets busy.
Life gets busy.
Your brain gets busy.

And apparently… the plants are the first to know. 🤣

I absolutely love my plants. I have every intention of being that organised plant mum who waters, trims, repots and lovingly checks every leaf.

And then… business. Family. Life. A million things happening at once.

Suddenly I look over and think, Ohhhh… sorry guys. 😬🌱

But you know what I love about them?

Their resilience. Their patience.

They might look a little worse for wear.
They might need some attention.
They might have been slightly forgotten while everything else took priority…

But give them some water, a little sunshine, and some care, and they start growing again.

And I reckon a little business/life lesson is hiding in there.

You don't have to have everything perfectly maintained all the time.

Sometimes you just need to notice what you've been neglecting, give it a bit of attention and keep growing.

🌱 Be resilient.
🌱 Be patient.
🌱 Keep growing.

Basically… be a plant. 🤣

Anyone else have plants currently surviving on resilience alone? 😂🌿

🎬 A day in my life ... Business owner edition 💚

Some days are client meetings, Xero, emails, training clients on understanding their numbers, and getting through the never-ending to-do list.

Other parts of the day are school runs (when they don't walk or ride, goodbye winter!) , walking the dog, putting dinner in the slow cooker, homework, kids' sports, feeding the boys… and eventually closing the laptop and collapsing on the couch for movie night. 😂

And usually, it’s ALL OF THE ABOVE in one day.

Running Perth’s Art of Numbers has never just been about bookkeeping for me.

It’s about helping business owners feel more confident with their numbers, building a business and team I’m proud of, while still being Mum and making space for the life happening around it.

And lately, there’s been something else taking up a little bit of my workday too… 👀

I’ve been working behind the scenes on something I’ve wanted to create for a VERY long time.

Something designed to take what I’ve spent more than 20 years learning and turn it into practical, easy-to-understand education for business owners.

I’m not giving it all away just yet. 😉

But over the next few weeks, I’m going to start taking you behind the scenes.

Something new is coming to Perth’s Art of Numbers. 🌿

WHAT’S YOUR GUILTY PLEASURE? 💅

Mine? Apparently it’s doing my own nails. 😂

There’s something about switching off from work, sitting down with all the colours lined up and attempting to create something that hopefully resembles a salon manicure!

When you spend your days buried in numbers, BAS, payroll, reconciliations and helping business owners make sense of their finances, having something completely unrelated to work is SO important.

We all need that little thing that helps our brain switch off.

So tell me…

What’s your guilty pleasure or hobby outside of work?

Is it nails? Gardening? Gaming? Reading? Baking? A sneaky reality TV obsession? 👀

👇 I want to know yours!
