About Us

OUR HISTORY

Appy Books was born!

In 2014, Tracey was working as a business analyst for a large mining company. The corporate vibe had lost it's shininess and she wanted to find a new challenge; a place where she could use her management accounting and analysis skills to make a difference for small businesses.
Appy Books was born!

Since then, Appy Books has built a growing portfolio of small business clients, implemented cloud-based automated accounting solutions for compliance bookkeeping and provided practical and insightful analysis into the health and direction of these businesses. Appy Books often acts as the plain-speaking glue between accountants and business owners.  The three of us work as a team to become an unbreakable triangle, moving towards the same goals. Appy Books are a sounding board and helping hand on a regular basis, not just at year end. They are bookkeepers that care about their client's  success.
