Testimonials
Outstanding customer service, the staff at Virtual Business Associates are totally switched on! Absolute pleasure to work with, they are so professional and understanding of our business needs. Thoughtful & pro-active in achieving the best outcomes. Highly recommended!
Wayne & Nikki Marshall - Amber Tiles Gregory Hills.
We have found Virtual Business Associates has supported us to improve our business processes over a sustained period of time.
John and Andrew both have strong practical management experience in the stone and tile industry. Combining this experience with their knowledge of the Harmoniq software has really helped us to adapt our systems and processes to best suit.
​
We also love being able to deal promptly and directly with experienced, practical people with real knowledge, instead of logging tiresome and drawn out support calls and not knowing who will call back next time. Their speed of action is greatly appreciated. They certainly have our strong recommendation to anyone looking to use VBA’s services.

Phil Crawford - Owner Nature Stone
As an experienced business operator, I knew that starting a new business meant understanding what capabilities are best kept internal and what can be outsourced for greater efficiency and effectiveness. The team at Virtual Business have a wealth of experience in bookkeeping and more importantly a depth of understanding of what makes business tick. Inventory control, supply chain, foreign exchange, mobile devices, business intelligence reporting (and interpretation) knowledge means they have added value far beyond any accounting service provider I have ever worked with. They have driven value for my business and asked the questions that make me think harder about how I can improve and grow. Absolute professionalism, accuracy and attention to detail are their mainstays. Awesome!
