There is the business of tax, and there are tax businesses. Tax Management New Zealand values our relationship with our tax agents and accounting firms – together we help build each other up. In the spirit of this collaboration, Tax Management New Zealand is bringing tax agents a series of 20 podcasts that explores questions around how to build a better advisory business in disruptive times.
Unquestionably we are living in a time of disruption, and it’s not just Covid-19 and a rapidly changing regulatory landscape. We have changes in client behaviour and needs, and advances in technology – such as real-time data – that are changing the advisory business landscape. We trust this podcast, and the experts we interview, will help you not only navigate but prosper through these times.
TMNZ has rounded up a group of experts in their field. They’re here to inspire, educate, and inform you on your business and tax.
Tash Gate and Rory Wyatt talk about social media for accountants and service providers. How to get started, channel opportunities, and building trust with current and future clients.
Some argue that technology and real-time data are intrusive and will allow the IRD access or potential access to client information that should private. Others say that real-time data is an opportunity for both the client and the advisor and ultimately leads to better business for both. We talk to Sue Pak, New Zealand Head of Accounting at Xero to discuss some of the opportunities and issues real-time data presents.
Since our inception, we’ve donated millions of dollars to charitable and philanthropic work throughout Aotearoa. A current focus for this giving is restoring our environment. We’ve partnered with Live Ocean, the charity founded by Peter Burling and Blair Tuke to restore ocean health. As part of our podcast series The Business of Tax, we talk to Peter and Blair on America’s Cup success and the importance of a healthy ocean.
