Why Your Xero Setup Matters

If Xero is not set up properly, it can lead to:

  • Inaccurate financial reports
  • Manual workarounds and errors
  • Missed tax claims
  • Wasted time and confusion

A proper setup makes it easier to:

  • Track income and expenses clearly
  • Understand cash flow at a glance
  • Stay compliant with BAS and ATO reporting
  • Automate admin tasks like bank reconciliations
  • Get real insights to support growth

When Xero is working the way it should, you can stop guessing and start feeling confident about your numbers.

Our Approach to Xero Setup

We do not just plug in the basics and leave you to figure it out. We set you up for success from day one.

Here is how we do it:

  • We get to know your business and what you need from Xero
  • We build your Xero file or clean up your existing one
  • We create a chart of accounts that makes sense for your business
  • We connect your bank feeds for easier reconciliations
  • We set up payroll, GST, invoicing, and reporting
  • We show you how to use it so you feel in control

If you need help connecting Xero to your other systems like inventory or POS software, we can handle that too!

If this is your first time using accounting software, don’t worry. Xero is built to be user-friendly, and we will walk you through it step by step.

We can help you:

  • Learn how to send invoices and receive payments

Katie and the Propeller team are more than just accountants. They're our cheerleaders, our sounding board, and trusted advisors. I don't know where we'd be without them.Our meetings always come around just at the right moment... When I'm feeling a little down on myself, or bogged down in only seeing one perspective... it's so helpful to have you share how it looks objectively from where you sit.  It's remarkable actually to see how far we've come and that we're achieving concrete goals.  If we didn't take these moments to reflect, it would seem like we weren't getting anywhere special, when in fact we're on a new mountain looking off at the mountains ahead, with so many mountains in our wake ;)I appreciate the value of these planning meetings more than ever before.  Thanks for having our backs

Propeller provides us with a comprehensive suite of accounting and business services, including tax compliance, ad hoc accounting and business planning advice (with plenty of emotional reassurance), quarterly advisory sessions, bookkeeping, and training courses. They excel at all of these areas, and I trust that I’m in good hands. What truly sets them apart, however, is how they work with me. The entire team has taken the time to get to know us, and they genuinely care about me personally and Yarra City Psychology as a business. They’ve listened carefully to my values and goals for YCP, helping me build a financially sustainable business that aligns with my vision—without pressuring me to chase huge profit margins that don’t align with my priorities. Propeller isn’t the kind of accounting firm that does the bare minimum while watching you repeat the same mistakes. They proactively help you assess how viable your goals are and offer thoughtful guidance as you work toward them.

We could not have opened our business without Katie, Johann and the rest of the team. They helped us collectively with our financial plans and mentored us prior to opening and have continued to support us in every aspect of the financial side of our small biz. Katie tailored a package for us to suit our needs, with no hidden costs so we knew exactly what we needed to do and when. The team is prompt, experienced and actually care! HIGHLY recommend!

I've been working with Propeller Advisory since I launched my business 10 months ago, and they have been SO incredible to work with. No question is a silly question and they are always quick to respond and happy to help. As a small business owner it's so important to have a good understanding of my expenses and budget and I feel at ease knowing I have the support of their team. Thank you Bree for an amazing Xero training and for spending extra time teaching me how to manage my new company structure. Feeling so relieved to have everything in order and set up correctly. And thank you Katie for always responding to my many emails! Highly recommend if you're looking for savvy and professional accountants!
