Kristen Lawes
Lawes Business Solutions, Caringbah South
“I started Lawes Business Solutions in May 2020 and, despite COVID, I have been thriving. My business provides a range of back of house office management services to small business owners, working together to implement systems and procedures that increase organisation and efficiency.
I am a glass-half-full, can-do, let's-have-a-crack type of person, helping people set up systems and eliminate pain points is my jam."
Margarita Skarparis
Margarita FIT, Caringbah
“Since 2011, I have been a personal trainer and then right before COVID hit, I decided to move into massage therapy.
My mum has been a massage therapist since I was 4 years old, so it seemed natural, as a personal trainer, to follow in her footsteps.
Ever since then I have been specialising in Sports and Trigger Point Massage Therapy as my main focus with Margarita FIT."

"RatesCalc is a software service and technology company, we’re Australian made, Australian owned, started in Feb 2017. We solve a lot of pain and problems for organisations, particularly around understanding compliance involving employment and wages."

“I was a young lady with a dream and once I saw that vision, there was no stopping me! I was brought up in a creative environment around my mum’s flower shop and from a young age I just wanted to make things and sell them.”

“As a little boy, I read Vogue. It was not the typical thing for a boy from the Shire to do, but I guess I wasn’t a typical boy. My older brother, Billy, and I both adored glamour…”

“For me, what I love about Linda (SYM’s Head Honcho) is that she’s upfront. Whatever she says she’s going to do, she does, no empty promises! And that’s important.
I like her soul, I like how she’s a go-getter! That resonates with me because that’s who I am as a person too. That’s why I have connected with her. I love her, she’s a legend!
AMY TAYLOR,

If you are looking for a down to earth, honest and always there to answer any questions bookkeeper, do not hesitate to call Linda and the team at SYM Business Services.
BREE MAKOVBEC
★★★★★
Have been lucky to deal with Linda from SYM Business Services – her advice and response to my queries are second to none!
Linda and her staff are very knowledgeable and have been a great help to me with their bookkeeping advice.
JULIE MCKINNERY
★★★★★
To support our growth and scalability – One of our biggest risks was our back office capability – Selecting the right partner has been pivotal for us – I’m truly blessed we found SYM.
COL LEVANDER, RatesCalc
★★★★★
I would strongly recommend SYM as they allow me to focus on my business and, importantly, look after my customers.
SYM gives me the peace of mind that my bookkeeping is being cared for, is streamlined and my GST obligations are being adhered to.
ANDY GRAY, This Is Not A Shop
★★★★★
If you’re trying to decide whether or not to get a Bookkeeper, or trying to decide who to use, stop searching. These are your people.
I’m not exaggerating one little bit when I say that I wouldn’t still be in business if it weren’t for the help and support I’ve had from Linda and her team. They constantly go above and beyond and they genuinely care about my success, not just my fees.
If you’re worried about price, know that any dollar I’ve spent with SYM has come back many many times over in savings and peace of mind. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
BOB SLATTERY, Fired Up BBQ
★★★★★
I’m like a SYM evangelist. If anyone is talking to me about keeping the ‘main things, the main things’ I tell them, “I know a simple solution to how you can do that”. I never see bookkeeping as an expense but a valuable investment.
Villastone Building Solutions
★★★★★
I have used SYM for all my bookkeeping for the past 5 years, they always go above and beyond to assist, especially if something urgent comes up.
They take all the pain out of BAS, tax time and payroll.
I couldn’t recommend them enough to any small business
MATT SEARS,
Rich Earth Landscape Gardens
★★★★★
We use Linda and her team at our preschool. We could not have got through COVID without their expertise on JobKeeper, bookkeeping, wages and (they’re) always there to help and answer questions.
I would definitely recommend them. We now have them doing our wages – That’s how good they are!
KIM GLASSON LONEY,
