Stress Free Bookkeeping that Gives You Back Your Life

Hello, I’m Jenny Ryan, owner of Bookkeeping Direct. I’ve been involved in managing, offering training, and rescuing businesses so that they will succeed and thrive, for decades. Our business has grown by word-of-mouth referrals from our delighted clients, thankful Accountants and is backed by an experienced staff trained on our specific systems.

I have a great problem solving mind and many years of business experience, there isn’t a mess I haven’t been able to fix. I also partner with my husband to run our family business in the transport industry for over 30 years so I understand the pain & challenges of running a business.

After years of working closely with small businesses and diving deep into profit & loss statements, budgeting, and cash flow management, I discovered something game-changing: the Profit First method. It’s the most practical, powerful, and straightforward system I’ve found to help business owners become more profitable and—importantly—pay themselves consistently. This isn’t just another accounting method; it’s a mindset shift that puts profit at the core of every decision. I’m offering this because I’m truly passionate about helping businesses thrive—not just survive. As a Certified Profit First Professional and a part of the Profit First Australia network, I’m now equipped with the tools and strategies to guide you on your journey to sustainable profitability.

My personal interests include netball, watching the V8 supercars, reading,
gardening, spending time with my adult kids & friends, camping and a lover of nature. I am often sitting in on webinars & studying certifications to ensure my practice stays up to date & compliant in all aspects of running any kind of business.
