Don’t Let the Complexities of Your Financials Burden You Any Longer

Hi. I’m Melanie Thompson, an experienced accountant that loves to help people get their books in order. I provide crucial financial information while making sure my clients understand the process. 

This approach ensures that the client stays calm and takes one step at a time to get to the end goal. Together we get it done.

What is the end goal? My goal is to remove the mental and emotional strain you’re feeling now. Just imagine how it would feel if your books are up to date, SARS is happy and you have a strategy to keep it up to date going forward! No more hiding from your financial stresses.

We believe in building a relationship with our clients to better serve them.

“In the past, I had been prone to be summoned by bookkeepers/auditors to very intimidating boardrooms with file upon file in hand.

The experience is completely different with Mel. I’m all about saving paper-thankfully everything is done electronically from statements to invoices generated.

I cannot recommend her highly enough! I’ve had an innate fear of SARS and accounting but I’ve since found newfound confidence with her in my corner. “

“I’m Christina, a client of Melanie @ Bookkeeping First.

SARS contacted me about an Admin Penalty for a company I closed down years ago. Or so I thought.

WHAT?

Melanie, thank you for being calm in this SARS storm. Your process broke down the task into simple steps that I could follow.

You took such good care of me that it was a breeze to handle this, for me, stressful situation.

Thank you.”
