Platinum Business Admin — giving people back their lives

Sick of doing your bookkeeping for your
business or sporting club at 11 and 12 at night?

Then why not contact Jess Crombie from Platinum Business Administration in Orange.

“People want their lives back,” Jess said. 

“I have a number of tradie friends or their wives, who’ve said they are constantly doing bookwork when they need to be focusing on what their core business is — they don’t want to have all their bookwork to do at the end of the day too, so that’s where we come in.”

Jess is an accountant with 15 years’ experience and has held positions from junior accounting positions right through to company general manager.

And as a mother of three children, she also knows just how important it is to maintain a work/life balance which is why she launched Platinum Business Administration in 2019.

“That is what I want to be able to give other people,” said Jess. “We are a BAS agent and do administration, but we leave tax to the tax experts. What we focus on is the day-to-day management of a person’s business to then help reduce their time and costs at the end of the year.

“We can have as little involvement as just doing your BAS every quarter, payroll, or doing your books from start to finish,” she added.

The lockdowns and interruptions caused by the coronavirus, she said, has shown that you don’t need to come in-person to their 5 Stephen Place office, to have your business admin issues resolved.

“We’re probably on a more online basis now, we do a lot of our work over the phone. I’ve got clients in Sydney where it is all online,” Jess said.

“Where our expertise comes in is for not just bookkeeping, but establishing systems that allow our clients to input much of the data themselves,” she explained.

“It’s about automating a lot of their bookkeeping and using online streaming services for much of the day-to-day work.”

Jess’ work with Nadine Attenborough and Amy Brown particularly focuses on supporting cooperatives and associations as well traditional operations.

Business has been so busy for these go-to girls, with many of their clients under pressure for financial deadlines, that they all work together to get the job done.

“We’re a staff of three but all work together, we’re all interchangeable and we can all help,” Jess said. 

For associations run by volunteer committees, Platinum Business Administration is there to help with auditing and can even help establish systems to streamline the administration to ultimately save time and money.

“Sporting association volunteers are all usually working full-time, and they’ve got kids involved or are playing the sport themselves, so they have limited time,” Jess said.

“We can come in to assist them, so they are not spending 15 or 20 hours a week on top of their normal job, plus kids sport and everything else in between to do their role as the secretary or member of the board,” Jess concluded.
