"When I am not in front of a computer screen crunching numbers, I can be found either with my turntable listening to my vinyl collection, creating playlists or discovering new music".
Nikki
Co-founder & Director
​
"Curled up with a good book is my "me time" escapism away from work life and family needs".

"My role is to make sure they do not spend too much time in front of their computer screens and take regular breaks. I keep their work life balance in check".
ABOUT US
We are not your average Accountants.
In 2016 my wife and I co-founded October Blue Limited with our "why" to support and empower small businesses achieve their success through managing their Accounts.
​
Coming together with our AAT and CIMA Qualifications we set up our Tauranga-based boutique company to use our accounts knowledge and skillset gained from over 30 years experience working in large corporate companies to small businesses.
​
OUR SERVICES
Ideal for businesses without an Accounts Department.
Customised Outsourced Accounting solutions designed to help you understand your finances and reach your business and lifestyle goals. We empower you to take charge of your numbers or can manage your accounts for you, allowing you to focus on what you do best.
TAILORED FOR YOU
Flexibility is the cornerstone of our partnership.
We deliver tailored services to your needs, whether it's a couple of hours a day, weekly, or monthly. This approach eliminates the just handing over a box of receipts and paperwork to your Accountant at the end of the financial year.
If numbers aren't your strength, our Outsourced Accounting services are precisely what you need. Count on us for an added service that saves you money and reduces stress in managing your finances.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTS TO BOOKKEEPING
Effective management of your accounting functions and financial analysis is essential for enhancing the operational aspects of your business.
Rather than waiting until the end of the financial year to assess your performance over the past twelve months, consider your progress throughout the year.
Adopting a proactive approach will enable you to make informed decisions and drive your business forward.

We primarily work remotely with our amazing clients, but we also offer the option to meet in person whenever needed!
​
This approach creates a flexible and cost effective arrangement, thanks to cloud-based technology.
​
Best of all, your location doesn't have to be a deciding factor when choosing to work with us, even though we proudly call Tauranga our home!
TESTIMONIALS
“As a builder having my accounts looked after for me allows me to focus my attention 100% on my day job and my clients. For over 10 years Rich and Nikki at October Blue Limited have worked with me and that's a lot of time I've saved not having to spend on financial paperwork and GST Returns.
They do a stellar job!"
