🌺 Growing Our Business Through Knowledge & Support 🌺
A huge Vinaka Vakalevu to the Waikato Pacifica Business Network for continuing to create opportunities for Pacific business owners like us to learn, grow, and better understand what it takes to operate a business here in New Zealand. ❤️
Last night was another valuable learning opportunity, where we had the privilege of working alongside IRD and a provider who helped us understand and set up Xero software to make managing our business finances easier and more efficient.
We also had the opportunity to learn more about tax, GST, financial responsibilities, and our obligations as registered businesses in New Zealand.
These are some of the things that can easily be overlooked when starting a business. Sometimes we focus so much on getting the business up and running that we forget to educate ourselves about the financial side, tax responsibilities, record keeping, GST, and the obligations that come with being a registered business.
For us, learning is part of growing. 🌱
We are grateful for every opportunity to gain knowledge, ask questions, and make sure we are doing things the right way and working towards the standards expected of businesses here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
A big Vinaka Vakalevu to Waikato Pacifica Business Network and your Team Teuila Maggof for walking alongside us and continuing to provide these valuable opportunities, connections, and support. Your work makes a real difference for Pacific businesses who are building, learning, and striving to grow. ❤️🌺
