Questions people ask

Is this spam?

No. Each email is a short, relevant business message sent from your own mailbox, with you named as the sender and a working unsubscribe. We follow Australia’s Spam Act on every send.

What if nobody replies?

Often clients see replies every day, but the reply rate depends on the message and the offer. We work with you to test and find an outreach message that works well. There’s no contract, so if it isn’t working for you, stop.

Do I have to do anything?

Approve the email at the start, then reply to the people who write back. That’s it.

Is $245 a month really the whole price?

Yes. $245 a month including GST, billed monthly. No setup fee, no contract.

Where do you find the businesses?

Public sources around your area, checked by your rep one at a time. We never buy or sell lists.

From: Josh at Northside Bookkeeping

To: An accounting firm in Brisbane

Hi team,

It’s always a bit awkward reaching out of the blue, but I wanted to ask if you have a bookkeeper you send clients to?

We’re Northside Bookkeeping, a small Brisbane team that keeps the day-to-day books tidy for local businesses, so their files are clean when they land on your desk at tax time.

If a client ever needs a bookkeeper, we’d love to be the one you point them to. If not, no worries, just let me know.

Cheers,
Josh
