Our Why
Meet Tara
Numbers tell a story. And I believe every business owner deserves to understand theirs.
I’m Tara Lieschke, founder of Perth’s Art of Numbers Bookkeeping, and I help business owners relieve the stress of their finances and take control of their numbers.
With a background of 20 years of working in Accounting, end-to-end bookkeeping, payroll, BAS preparation, and business systems, I work closely with small and growing businesses across Perth to bring clarity to their finances. From tradies and service businesses to retail and professional services, my goal is always the same, to make the numbers simple, organised, and useful for making real business decisions.
But bookkeeping isn’t just about reconciling accounts or lodging BAS. And I’ve seen the bigger picture working in this industry so long.
It’s about helping business owners sleep better at night knowing their finances are under control.
I believe bookkeeping should feel supportive, proactive, and human - not confusing or intimidating. That’s why I take the time to understand each client’s business, their goals, and the challenges they face day-to-day.
Through Perth’s Art of Numbers, I’ve built a practice focused on clarity, education, and genuine relationships. My team and I work alongside our clients to keep their financial systems running smoothly so they can focus on what they do best …. running their business.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll often find me connecting with other local business owners, speaking at networking events, or creating resources that help business owners better understand their numbers.
Because when you truly understand your numbers, you can build a business with confidence.
How we help
Running a business is challenging enough without the added stress of trying to understand your finances alone. At Perth’s Art of Numbers, we support business owners through reliable bookkeeping, BAS preparation and compliance, payroll and superannuation management, financial reporting, and practical business insights. We also provide software training, advisory sessions, and simple systems that help make managing your finances easier. Beyond our services, we share knowledge through workshops, newsletters, and the Art of Numbers Podcast, because we believe business owners deserve access to clear, practical information without it costing the earth. Our goal is to bring clarity, confidence, and control to your numbers so you can focus on running and growing your business.
Throughout the 20 years of Accounting Industry Ive seen the tears, the frustration, the questions and the “I’m done”. Business can be tough.
We believe business owners shouldn’t feel overwhelmed by their finances.
Too many hardworking people run great businesses but feel stressed, confused, or unsure when it comes to their numbers. That’s where we come in.
Our purpose is to bring clarity, confidence, and control back to business owners by making bookkeeping simple, organised, and understandable.
Because when you understand your numbers, you can make better decisions, grow your business with confidence, and focus on doing the work you love.
We are heavily involved in the community from supporting the Stirling Saints Football team in Balcatta, Running workshops for small business owners, Education coordinator at BNI Northern Synergy in Balcatta and running the Podcast “Art of Numbers”, we believe that information should be freely available and connections are needed in business.
