AffordBooksTax was created because we kept seeing the same problem - small businesses being turned away by large accounting firms, or paying big-firm prices for basic services they didn't need. We built something different.
PremierOne Tax and Accounting has been helping Australian businesses with their finances since 2017. Over the years, we noticed a consistent gap - small businesses under $500,000 in revenue were either being turned away by larger firms, or paying fees that didn't reflect the actual size and complexity of their books.
In 2023, we launched AffordBooksTax as a dedicated arm to serve that exact market. Same expertise, same rigour, same registered tax agent - structured specifically for small businesses, at prices that actually make sense for them.
We're not a startup. We're a specialist division backed by an established practice, built from the ground up to serve clients that most firms don't prioritise.
