How it works

Three steps, then it runs itself

  2. Step 2: Send your paperwork

Meet your bookkeeper

Hi, I'm Julanka.

For more than 12 years I looked after debtors, creditors, VAT and CIPC work for the clients of an accounting practice. I learned that most small business owners don’t need a big firm, they need one reliable person who knows their file and gets it done.

That’s Svila. I listen first, explain things plainly, and I stay with my clients for the long run.

Questions

Good to know

Something else on your mind? Ask me directly.

My books are behind. Can you still help?

Yes. We start by getting you up to date, then move to a normal monthly routine. Catch-up work is quoted separately after our first chat.

Do I need to use Sage?

No. I work in Sage Pastel and Sage Accounting, and can set your business up on the one that suits you if you don't have a system yet.

How do I send my documents?

Whatever is easiest for you — email, WhatsApp or a shared folder. Clear phone photos of slips are fine.

Do you only work locally?

Most work happens online, so I can help businesses anywhere in South Africa.

Paperwork piling up?
