Helping small businesses stay compliant and in control with expert bookkeeping, payroll, BAS lodgement, and accounting software support.

8 days until July 1 and if you have staff, three things are changing at once.

1. Payday super starts
Super must now be paid with every single pay run - not quarterly. Your cash flow and payroll process need to reflect this from your very first July pay run.

2. Minimum wages increase
The Fair Work Commission has confirmed a 4.75% increase to modern award minimum wages, effective from the first full pay period on or after 1 July 2026. The national minimum wage rises to $26.44 per hour. If any of your staff are on award wages, you need to update their rates now.

3. The Small Business Clearing House closes permanently
If you currently use the ATO's SBSCH to pay super - it closes on July 1. You need an alternative in place before then.

Three changes. One deadline. Eight days.

If you're not across all three - there is still time to get sorted.

Book a session with me this week and we'll work through your specific setup together

✨ Supporting Women in Business ✨

Hana from Officiency recently had the pleasure of speaking at the launch event for the 2026 Empowering Women Entrepreneurs (EWE) Program.

The evening brought together inspiring women in business to share experiences, challenges, and insights around growing and strengthening a business journey.

At Officiency, we are passionate about supporting women in business, not only through bookkeeping and compliance support, but by helping business owners build confidence, clarity, and stronger financial foundations.

Programs and events like these are a powerful reminder of the value of community, collaboration, and having the right support around you as your business grows.

We are proud to contribute to conversations that empower women to move forward with confidence in business and beyond.

At Officiency, we believe business owners should feel confident, supported and clear when growing their business, not overwhelmed by the numbers, systems or compliance.

This Wednesday, Hana is honoured to be participating as a panellist at the Empowering Women Entrepreneurs 2026 Launch Event, sharing her experience as a past participant and as a woman in business growing her own practice.

Through Officiency, Hana supports small business owners with bookkeeping, BAS, payroll, accounting software support and practical financial guidance, helping them build stronger systems and make business decisions with more confidence.

Being part of this panel is a wonderful opportunity to talk about growth, support, community and the importance of having the right people around you as you build your business.

Officiency is proud to support business owners as they move from overwhelm to clarity and grow with confidence.

✨ International Women’s Day – Community, Connection & Empowerment ✨

Over the past few weeks, Officiency had the opportunity to attend and contribute to several International Women’s Day events across our local business communities.

Each event brought together inspiring women in business and leadership, with a shared focus on connection, collaboration, and supporting progress.

At the City of Glen Eira event, Hana was honoured to be part of a panel discussion alongside other local business leaders, sharing insights on business, the importance of thinking beyond the day-to-day, and the value of financial literacy for women.

At the Fresh Networking breakfast, the theme “Give to Gain” highlighted how sharing knowledge, support, and opportunities strengthens both individuals and the wider community.

And at the Monash Women’s Business Network lunch, we heard from keynote speaker Jo Stanley, who shared reflections on leadership and creating opportunities for women, as well as her work supporting Fitted for Work.

Across all events, one message stood out:
strong communities create stronger businesses.

At Officiency, we believe that financial clarity and confidence play a key role in that, empowering business owners to make informed decisions and move forward with purpose.

We’re proud to be part of such supportive local communities and to contribute to conversations that empower women in business.

🌟 November Wrap – Supporting Clients, Community & Growth

November has been a month full of meaningful work, client wins, and community connection; the kind of month that reminds me exactly why I do what I do at Officiency.

Two highlights stood out:
✨ Joining the City of Glen Eira as a Business Mentor — a role I’m genuinely honoured to step into
✨ Supporting new clients who were significantly behind with their bookkeeping to catch up, become compliant, and finally breathe again

From there, the month continued with purpose:
✨ Volunteering at Monash Public Library
✨ Speaking at the Capture Your Purpose (CYP) Inner Circle in-person event on Financial Literacy Made Simple
✨ Delivering the Canva for Beginners workshop for CYP online
✨ Guest speaking with Caroline Yego at the Financial Literacy for Direct Care Workers session
✨ Attending multiple networking events, including Bookkeeping Professional Networking
✨ Several Fresh Networking meetings and meaningful one-on-one catch-ups with members and guests
✨ City of Monash End-of-Year Small Business & Sole Trader Networking Event
✨ Eastern Innovation end-of-year event

Behind the scenes, Officiency has been busy:
✔ Finalising several catch-up jobs
✔ Onboarding new clients
✔ Payroll, reconciliations and BAS lodgements
✔ Helping business owners get up to date, compliant and confident again

This month reminded me how powerful clarity, connection and community support can be for small business owners.

Feeling grateful and ready for a strong December.

24/11/2025

A fresh Monday is the perfect time to reset your systems, even if it’s been a while.

If you’ve fallen behind on your bookkeeping or feel out of rhythm, remember:
✨ You don’t need to fix everything today.
✨ You don’t need the perfect plan.
✨ You just need to start where you are.

Try one small step:
✨ Log into your bookkeeping software and check one thing - your bank feed, an invoice, or your cash flow.

Small actions create clarity.

I am really pleased to share that I will be joining Caroline, a workplace wellbeing and resilience advocate, for an online conversation created especially for the people who care for our community every day - health, disability, aged-care, and community-care workers.

Care work takes so much heart, energy, and emotional strength. And while care workers look after everyone else, their own financial wellbeing is often the last thing they have time or headspace for.

Caroline and I will be having a real, honest conversation about financial confidence, how to make day-to-day money decisions feel lighter, how to budget with purpose, understand super, and plan for the future in a way that feels achievable, not overwhelming.

This session is designed to be supportive, practical, and completely jargon-free.
If you or your team work in direct care, I would genuinely love to support you at this event.

🗓️ Date/Time: Thursday 20/11/2025 6-7pm
