Since our last update we welcomed Vicky to the team, Vicky joins us as a Bookkeeper & Administrator and she’s hit the ground running! Just a few weeks in and already making a big difference for our clients. We’re so glad to have her on board!
We’re also delighted to welcome several new clients to the Summit family. It’s a privilege to support such a diverse and inspiring group of businesses, and we look forward to helping each one streamline and thrive.
Proactive Steps When Cash Gets Tight 💰
When cash flow gets tight, keeping open lines of communication with creditors is essential. Instead of avoiding the situation, proactively reaching out can help secure flexible payment arrangements, avoid late fees, and maintain strong business relationships. Many creditors appreciate transparency and may be willing to negotiate extended terms or lower payments during difficult times. By addressing concerns early, businesses can reduce financial stress and work toward long-term stability.
If you’re facing challenges, don’t hesitate to call us and we can help you through.
Making Payments Easier for You
Winter can sometimes be an expensive time of year with tax, energy and our customers going into hibernation.🥶 We are always looking for ways to make our clients lives easier. If you are managing your cashflow tightly, we offer the option to switch to weekly invoicing. This can help break down your payments into smaller, more manageable amounts, providing greater flexibility and predictability for your budget. If you’re interested in making this change or learning more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with Joy or Vicky accounts@summitoutsourcing.co.nz
Is Your Payroll System Still the Right Fit? 🤔
As your business evolves, your payroll system should too. While most platforms offer similar core features, not all are created equal, and the right fit can make a big difference in saving time, reducing errors, and staying compliant.
At Summit Outsourcing, we support a range of trusted payroll systems including Xero, Thankyou Payroll, iPayroll, and Smartly. Whether you need a simple, seamless solution or something more tailored to your workflow, we can help ensure your payroll is working for you – not against you.
If you’re wondering whether your current system is still the best option, feel free to reach out. We’re here to help you streamline, stay on track, and thrive.
📣 Great news for NZ small businesses!
Xero now offers Tap to Pay on iPhone and it’s a game changer for businesses wanting to simplify payments and improve cash flow.
If you’re a Xero customer in New Zealand with a Stripe account, you can now accept in-person, contactless payments straight from your iPhone using the Xero Accounting app – no extra hardware required! 🙌
Even better, Xero now allows you to pass on the Stripe transaction fee to your customer – helping you keep more of what you earn.
At Summit Outsourcing, we can help you:
✔️ Set up Tap to Pay in your Xero account
✔️ Link Stripe and configure payment settings
✔️ Enable the Stripe fee pass-through feature
