BAS reminder email

Prompt
Write a friendly email reminding a small business client that their BAS is due in 2 weeks. Include what they need to prepare.
Example AI output
Just a heads-up — your BAS for this quarter is due on [date]. To keep things smooth, could you make sure your bank feeds are reconciled in Xero, any outstanding invoices are entered, and receipts for major expenses are uploaded? If anything looks off, let me know this week and we'll sort it before lodgement.

Practice LinkedIn post

Prompt
Write a short LinkedIn post for an accounting firm explaining why small businesses should review their pricing annually.
Example AI output
Most small businesses set their prices once and forget about them. But your costs haven't stayed the same — rent, wages, materials, insurance — they've all moved. If your prices haven't kept up, your margins are shrinking quietly. A quick annual pricing review with your accountant can make a real difference. It doesn't need to be complicated.

Client advisory email

Prompt
Write an email to a client explaining that their business insurance is due for renewal and they should review their cover with their broker.
Example AI output
Hi [Name], a quick reminder — your business insurance policy is coming up for renewal on [date]. Before it auto-renews, it's worth having a chat with your broker to make sure your cover still matches your business. Things like revenue changes, new equipment, or additional staff can all affect what you need. If you'd like me to send your broker a summary of your current financials to help the conversation, happy to do that. Just let me know.

End-of-year client checklist

Prompt
Write a short checklist email for small business clients preparing for end of financial year.
Example AI output
Subject: EOFY prep — quick checklist With June 30 approaching, here are the key things to action: 1. Chase any outstanding debtor invoices — get them paid before year-end 2. Review planned asset purchases — may be worth bringing forward for instant asset write-off 3. Ensure super is paid AND received by funds before June 30 (not just sent) 4. Write off any bad debts formally 5. Reconcile your Xero/MYOB fully to June 30 6. Send through any large or unusual transactions for review Let me know if you want to book a quick pre-EOFY call — happy to run through anything specific to your situation.

New client welcome email

Prompt
Write a welcome email for a new bookkeeping client, explaining what you need from them to get started.
Example AI output
Welcome aboard! We're looking forward to working with you. To get started, we'll need a few things: 1. Xero login access (we'll send you an invitation to add us as an adviser) 2. Bank statements for the current financial year if not already connected to Xero 3. Your most recent BAS lodgement 4. Any outstanding invoices or receipts that need entering 5. Your registered tax agent's details (or let us know if you need a recommendation) We'll set up a 30-minute onboarding call this week to walk through your setup and answer any questions. Looking forward to it.
