Frequently Asked Questions – Accounting & Business Support in Nelson

Got questions? We’ve answered the most common ones from small business owners on accounting, tax returns, Xero support, coaching and more.

Do I need both an accountant and a business advisor?

Yes. A qualified accountant keeps you compliant with GST, tax and reporting, while a business advisor helps you plan and grow. At Business Navigators we combine both — handling bookkeeping and tax while guiding your strategy, cashflow and growth.

How much do services cost?

We offer transparent pricing and fixed‑fee packages starting from NZD 149–549 per month plus GST.

Packages are tailored to your business size and goals, so you always know what you’re paying for.

What bookkeeping and Xero services do you provide?

We handle Xero setup, bank reconciliations, payroll and real-time management reporting—designed specifically for SME businesses in the Nelson–Tasman region.

Monthly or fortnightly reconciliations keep your books accurate and current.

Do you work in person or remotely?

Both. Meet us at our Nelson base or work remotely via Zoom or Teams from anywhere in New Zealand.

Our processes are built for flexibility.

What is fractional CFO support?

It’s part‑time financial leadership for budgeting, forecasting and strategic decisions. We integrate with your team and software, providing high‑level insight without a full‑time salary.
