responsibility on your shoulders. You’re passionate about
achieving your goals, and in order to achieve that, your

spotlight – from chasing invoices, to paying staff, to
ensuring your books are audit-ready, and so the list goes on.

what matters most: leaving a positive legacy.
After all, the challenges you face in your organisation don’t always ‘fit the mould’.

looked back since.

the Purposely team continue to

our business. Because they understand the complexities of working with remote
organisations, they handle
everything we need with the greatest

business for a long time now and
I am very happy with the service.
They are very professional and I know

(and remain) invaluable to us in
making sure that this part of our
business is handled efficiently
and with careful attention
to detail.
Paying our casual workers on time is
critical to the success of our business.

Dortch & Cuthbert Trading Trust
The integrity of the Purposely
team is beyond question and we
know we can always rely on them
to prioritise the best interests of
our organisation.
Marrugeku engaged with Purposely in
2017 to handle all our bookkeeping

Marrugeku Inc.
The team at Purposely has been
a crucial resource to our
business. When we first started
working with them our books
needed dedicated attention.
Purposely did an amazing job at
bringing them up to date, making
things tidy as well as accurate. The team is always reliable and consistently get the work done. While their persistent reminders may sometimes feel like hounding, we recognise that it is precisely what our business needs. We highly recommend them for their professionalism and also their commitment to delivering results.
Cameron Herbert Constructions Pty Ltd
I have been working with
Purposely for a couple of years
now and in this time the team
has shown significant support to
me and my business.
Their technical expertise has helped me get my business in order leaving me to focus on what I do best. They communicate on a weekly basis so I know where things are at and what is yet to be done. Everything is completed and lodged on time and in full. I trust that they handle my data confidentially and would recommend them to anyone who is seeking the “next level” in terms of a bookkeeper.

I’m an exercise physiologist,
extremely busy and very

They have saved me a lot of time and
money helping my business to become
more streamlined and efficient, which
has saved me a lot of stress. I would
highly recommend Purposely as they
are very professional and very easy to
deal with.
Chris Anastasios Exercise Physiology
We have been working with Clare
and her team for the last 6 years.
Our initial contact with them came
from the difficulties we faced in
integrating our point of sale system
with our accounting software. We
required someone with technical
expertise to fix this issue, and Clare
immediately got on with the job. Since
then, Clare and her team have shown
commitment to adapt to our evolving
needs and implement effective
systems and processes, all of which
have contributed to enhancing our
overall operations.
Think Water Broome
We had no second thoughts on choosing Purposely.
My biggest pain point was not having clarity on the business financials from the previous bookkeepers. It was frustrating to try to communicate with them regarding anything. That’s when we found Purposely (Clare), our first impression was she was very professional and knowledgeable on what she does. We now have clarity, trust and good communication whether it comes to processing the payroll or bookkeeping or even sorting out the invoices. Clare and her team are always there to support and help and simplify things for us.
Dragonfly Cafe
We have been dealing with Clare and Purposely for over 4 years because they handle the bookkeeping for one of our clients.
And we can thoroughly recommend them to anyone that needs an efficient, accurate and easy to work with bookkeeper. We have always found their work to be of the highest quality.
Accounting on Tap Pty Ltd
I have nothing but praise for Clare & the team, they have always bent over backwards to help.
Myself & my business have been involved with Purposely for many years now after our internal Book-keeper decided to retire & suggested I look into what was/is Purposely. Purposely are Kimberley locals & understand how difficult it can be working remotely to run a business in this part of Australia. The team adapted to my requests & business style very quickly and I have to admit I haven’t always been the easiest person to work with due to the remote nature of our work & my lack of computer skills. GND will continue to use Purposely for the foreseeable future of our business.
Great Northern Demolition Pty Ltd
