Introduce yourself and what you do!

Welcome to the Early Access Program. We'd love to hear more about you and your business or side hustle.

For example, before I started working at MYOB I had my own IT training business where I needed to keep track of my expenses for the purposes of BAS/tax and would need to invoice for my services on a fortnightly basis. Updating an Excel spreadsheet was time consuming and hard to do on a phone. Imagine if I could do this on my commute to work or even while waiting for kids at swimming or footy practice?! šŸ“±šŸ‰

We can't wait to hear about you!

 

Cheers Sarah at MYOB
(formally Toggle Consulting)

    Hi 

    happy Friday preparing for ponies this weekend and sharing a couple of happy snaps of the ponies in action! 

     

  • Hi, I work as a carpenter and builder. Thank you for allowing me to be part of the EAP. I am quite busy with family and welcome using MYOB which hopefully can streamline invoicing and expenses. Also, being able to conduct business and take care of administration efficiently is very appealing.

    • Welcome DG01 another busy dad here. I hope we can help save you a bit of time with all the accounting. Thanks for being one of our first folks to test out this app with us. Let us know what we can do to dial things in. There's a lot to build still but the team's keen to really nail it :)

        Thanks great to be involved. I like the fact that it has been seamless creating an invoice and expense. Cash flow is important so l like the fact that I can easily view upcoming expenses and manage income coming in. 

  • Hi, I'm a freelancer based in Melbourne. I work with small arts organisations and individual artists with project management and grant writing support, so have minimal expenses but lots of clients with different pay structures (some by the hour, some by project, some on a sliding scale depending on org size). I am new to MYOB, and I'm looking forward to exploring the functionality of this new app!

      Welcome HBird it was great to have a quick chat with you at the Webinar last week :) 

      Actually curious about your grant writing work. Are your books full? I have a friend who probably needs your help!

    Hi all,

    My name is Trish, I work part time for MYOB as education Mgr in Perth looking after higher education.

    Pony Magic is my side hustle passion project. Started in 2021 I have two Shetland ponies in my garden and run experiences for little people introducing them to pony life and the magic of unicorns!

    We also support a sanctuary for retired and rescued horses running a ā€œdonation shedā€ from home.
    So I need my tools to work smart, save time & keep me on track! 

    • Welcome Trish! I was excited to hear about your business, walking ponies was my first ever job! As Ben said we'd love to see some pony photos

      Welcome Trish! It was great to see you last week on the webinar call :) 

      Keep the great feedback coming and don't hesitate to send some Pony photos too šŸ˜…

  • Hi everyone, my name is Kasia and Iā€™m an HR consultant based in Sydney. I use google sheets for my sole-trader business admin and my accounts sends me my BAS in zero. I have otherwise had exposure to various CRMs in the past through work and clients. 

     

    looking forward to seeing how MYOB can benefit and streamline my business admin.

      Welcome mahaigh Great to have you here.

      I lived in Mooloolaba many, many years ago, lovely part of the world you're in. 

      What sort of consulting? 

      Keen to hear how we can dial in the app for consulting work over the next few months with you. I'm going to test it out for my little consulting/coaching side-hustle too!

    Hello. Iā€™m here as part of the EAP. I used to use a piece of software called Wave which was great though limited as itā€™s not customisable for the local market. 

    Moving across to Myob has been great given the BAS reporting and integration, and genuinely using it more in depth for expense management that previously thought 

     

    I find itā€™s one of the things that if you invest in at the time it pays back multiple times over

      Chiming in to welcome you to the space Chrisg48

      I'd love to know a bit more about the business you're using our app with - if you feel comfortable sharing of course. 

      I hope to see you around the space here and I'll be on standby to help troubleshoot anything you might run into and pass on any ideas you have on what we should build for you next to Susan_K and the rest of the team here :)
