WE CARE ABOUT
YOUR BUSINESS…

At Knox Taxation and Business Advisory, we’re passionate about the success of YOUR business.

We take great pride and interest in mentoring you throughout all stages of the business life cycle.

We have Melbourne based business advisory services, that are able to help you build a successful business by:

Giving insight into your business’ performance
Explaining your business’ financials in a way you can understand
Holding your hand through business challenges and hurdles
Reducing your likelihood of paying too much tax each year, so you can invest it elsewhere in your business
Celebrating your wins, and
Supporting you through your losses.

Whether you’re a start-up, a developing business or an established business, our Accounting and Business Advisory services are available to you.

WE PROVIDE PERSONALISED AND QUALITY BUSINESS ADVICE

Unlike other accountants, our team love getting to know you, your story and what inspired you to start your business.

This helps us to gather an in-depth understanding of your situation so we can provide you with the utmost value and personalised advice.

We can help you:

Gain a greater understanding of your finances & profit
Understand the complexities of tax compliance
Identify key areas of opportunity
Implement positive measures to improve your KPIs
Through times of personal crisis, that may be impacting your business
Resolve issues with the ATO due to knowing the whole story of your operation.

With us, you can rest assured that you’re not just another number. Our staff will listen to your situation carefully; side-stepping the traditional ‘one size fits all’ approach.

WE USE LANGUAGE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND

Our team is renowned for simplifying complex tax jargon into a language that all of our clients can understand.

This in turn, enables you to make informed decisions relating to your business and your finances to grow your revenue and profits.

For many of our clients, we take care of the technical (eg. Bookkeeping, Tax Returns, BAS and overseeing Payroll) so they can focus on the physical and what matters most to their business. We can do the same for you too!

Whether you’re a tradie, a business start-up or an established business, we can help you grow and most importantly, manage your Financial and Taxation circumstances effectively. We’ll be your Accounting and Business Counsellors, all-in-one.

That’s our promise to you.

  I have used Knox Taxation Services for both my individual and my small business finances, over the past 20 years. I highly recommend their services and staff to everyone. If you are looking for experienced, professional and friendly service, this is the place for you. Thanks Coral and Staff for your fabulous work over the years (and more to come!)

  Coral and the team at Knox Tax have been incredible. Helping me through some tough times in regards to my business. But not only this, the personal support received from Coral and team has been amazing. They are not just numbers and tax people, they are humans and treat their customers with kindness, empathy and respect. I would highly recommend Knox Tax.

  Haven't been with Knox all that long, but Coral and team have been amazing. I'm also not overly savvy with the numbers so Coral is always happy to explain and guide which has been greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend anyone to give Knox Taxation a try, you won't regret the decision.

30% of new businesses fail during the first two years of being open

Hold your hand and guide you through the entire process.

BUSINESS START-UP CHECKLIST

Ensure to download our Free Small Business Start-up Checklist below to help you get started.

In this checklist, you’ll gain insight into 15 important things to consider when starting a business to improve your likelihood of success.

TAX PLANNING SERVICES

If you could pay less tax this year what would you do with the extra money?

During March-May we offer Tax Planning services to business clients to help you implement legitimate tax saving strategies before Year-end.

This can help reduce the amount of tax you have to pay for the year, but it does vary depending on your business and personal situation.

If you want to own and run a successful business, year-end tax planning should be part of your overall business strategy.

WE INTEGRATE WITH VARIOUS BUSINESS SOFTWARE

At Knox Taxation, we don’t believe in a “one-fits-all” solution when it comes to Business Accounting Software. That’s why we choose to integrate with various types of software to help businesses of varying sizes and needs.

Here are some of the software brands we work with currently:
