Our End to End Personal Training Bookkeeping Services.

With Gecko Bookkeeping, better financials for our personal trainers is just the beginning. Our team has strived to be leaders in our industry for over a decade now, developing the support each of our business owners need to offer true personalised, end-to-end services. ​

Our focus is always putting your business at the forefront of ours.

Using our software expertise and partnered resources, we can truly stand behind our business owners with truly comprehensive support.

As tech-loving bookkeepers, we’re well versed in the worlds industry leading accounting software, and encourage each of our clients to utilise cloud based software whenever possible.

Cloud based accounting and bookkeeping software is developing fast, and with it, incredible applications that can be integrated to truly automate your business, saving you hours on manual labour – either done by yourself or paid professionals. With the use of the right relevant software, we find our personal trainers can manage their business from multiple aspects in powerful ways, from easy and fast invoicing to on-the-go payment options and powerful profit projections to hone in on goals for future business profits.

As a personal trainer, you would know first-hand how little time you have to spend at your desk or phone managing your business expenses. But when you’re trying to grow your business, client portfolio and your profit improvement potential, you have to keep up. Bank reconciliation is the cornerstone of good bookkeeping, as when up-to-date and accurate, it’s the key to pulling financial reports needed to track and analyse your income and cash flow.

Start taking control of your business performance and gaining true visibility of your finances by outsourcing to a specialist Gecko bookkeeper. We can help with the set up and categorisation of your accounts, provide advice on claimable expenses, ensure accuracy across your financial data and reconcile all business transactions as much or as little as you need.

Poor handling of a personal trainer’s AP (accounts payable) and AR (accounts receivable) can be detrimental to business, and often is a leading cause of business failure. Without staying on top of the money you owe, and what’s owed to you, you could find your finances in hot water.

Outsourcing these services to us means that our dedicated bookkeepers are on a mission to efficiently handle your AP & AR, ensuring that you’re never behind on incoming and outgoing payments, and you’re on top of your cash flow. Leave the follow up of unpaid invoices with professionals that are committed to keeping your profits on top, and suppliers happy.

Whether you need a full suite of Bookkeeping Services for your personal training business, specific bookkeeping support services, or training to manage your own bookkeeping, the advice any bookkeeper will offer, is to first invest in the right accounting software. Using software to manage your books does not require any former accounting skill sets, and most software on the market is made to be user-friendly, however, it does require a little technical knowledge, and at the least, some fundamental understanding of bookkeeping basics.

Our team of Gecko Bookkeepers have extensive software knowledge and experience, and will provide you with expert advice on which accounting software selection is right for your fitness industry needs before helping you set up your software and connecting your accounts. Further to this, we offer tailored training and support to help you develop your accounting software skills, giving you the confidence to make the most of your software, the advantage of saving time, understanding your cash flow and making use of your softwares internal offerings such as payroll services.

Our specialists work directly with a wide variety of sole traders and business owners, including many personal trainers and fitness experts. By providing our tailored bookkeeping services with accounting software alongside training to a variety of small business industry types, we’re able to offer the right advice and knowledge, as well as dynamic skills to keep our clients books and business performance developing to stay one step ahead of the competition.

Depending on your earnings and business activity, you may be required by the ATO to lodge a quarterly BAS or monthly IAS statement. These lodgements are required by law to be submitted within the time frames the ATO has allocated to you, and failure to accurately lodge these statements on time can result in hefty fines. Working with a skilled bookkeeper for your BAS and IAS lodgement has many benefits outside of saving time and receiving full support for your financial statements preparation.

Our bookkeepers can provide you the knowledge and compliance relevant to your personal training business, keeping you up-to-date with new laws and ensuring you’re confident in lodging your statements every time. Further to this, as registered BAS agents, our bookkeepers can request you extra time for lodgements, and also communicate directly with the ATO on your behalf to create agreements such as payment plans. Don’t get caught in hot water with your statements! Our bookkeepers are dedicated to securing your business compliance and keeping your cash flow as healthy as possible.

JCG Projects Testimonial

I can not recommend Olivia and the team at Gecko Bookkeeping enough.

“I would not be here without the help of my bookkeepers. They have helped us to set up the financial foundations we needed to grow as a business. At the end of the day, we are great on construction sites and talking to clients, but they keep us in line financially”
