IKCA Business School® will teach you all things about tax and accounting that are essential to you running your business with success. You will have clarity and confidence in your numbers, and you will feel confident in making informed business decisions so your business can grow and succeed.

Does this sound familiar?

- You have engaged a bookkeeper to look after your books, but you still feel in the dark about your finances.
- You have an accountant, but you can never get a hold of them.
- You are truly afraid just to talk about the numbers in your business.
- Numbers are simply not  your thing and you get frustrated and feel clueless looking at those spreadsheets!
- Your bank account never seems to reflect the number of clients you take on or the long hours you work.

This only creates BIGGER (and more expensive) problems in the future. 

YOU KNOW SOMETHING NEEDS TO CHANGE,
AND IF NOT ACTED UPON, IT RESULTS IN:

Getting a big bill at tax time

Limiting opportunities for business growth

Working harder and feeling uncomfortable or shy when money is discussed

HERE IS THE THING, YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Many business owners struggle to understand their numbers and end up sweeping it all under the rug until BIGGER (and more expensive) problems happen!

All 3 of these things are AVOIDABLE with having base-level tax foundation knowledge and a good understanding of the tax strategies for your business.

Do you want to increase your tax literacy and gain a financial confidence boost for your business?

Just because you hired someone to look after your money, doesn't mean you can ignore it all together.

It's important you know exactly what's going in and coming out every single month and have a good grasp on the tax basics.

Why? So you don't have more problems to fix and big bills to pay when mistakes are found.

We've got the insider tips, tricks, strategies and systems that'll take you from clueless to confident.

Numbers don't have to be hard or leave you feeling stressed and overwhelmed. Instead, what if you could....

Hi, I’m Irena.

I teach business owners and professionals like you, accounting and taxation laws in Australia to empower you to make smart business and tax decisions. I want to see you take the reins on your business numbers and tax so you can steer towards those exciting goals ahead.

As business owners, we all know addressing the financials and tax side of your life plans can often be overwhelming and uninspiring, however it’s one of the most important things you can do for your future. The earlier you get on top of your business finances and tax, the bigger the impact it has in the long term.


With IKCA business and tax courses you will feel empowered and be so much more confident in making informed decisions and taking profitable action steps for building a successful business. You will learn about proven strategies to run your business with ease.

Over the years, I have been able to connect with some amazing clients that have been very appreciative and thankful of the work I have done for them and support I have given them on their journey. I am very proud of the results I help others create but I never pretend that I have all the answers. I am just a human too, and I also have hard days, and I make mistakes. Just like everybody else. But what I am more than anything else, is I am a life-long student and practitioner. The more you learn, the more you realise how little you know. And the more you learn, the better person you become. I truly believe in that.

I love to help people and I love to share the knowledge and experience I have acquired over the years of practicing business advisory, taxation and accounting with my clients.

All this to say, that I have build my life and career from the ground up, and over the years, I have learned a few things. What works and what doesn’t work. And courses that I am creating, like 'Learn tax using the IKCA method®', are really a chance for me to pass along a few of those lessons learned that will be of service and use to you.

I love seeing people succeed and I love when I have the opportunity to be part of your success.

I believe there is a massive difference between a tax advice and tax literacy. Tax literacy is a combination of tax knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviours necessary to make sound business and tax decisions, based on personal circumstances, to improve your overall wellbeing – and IKCA Business School is here to help improve your tax literacy.

Numbers and taxes do not have to be overwhelming and uninspiring - and it is time to uncomplicate your numbers and taxes with the IKCA signature course 'Learn tax using the IKCA method
®'. 

Not only will you finish the online tax course with a skip in your step, but you’ll also walk away with helpful tools and recommendations for your taxes from an expert. It has got your back with the tools, smart tax strategies and resources you need to succeed. Today is the day to take charge.

Testimonials

Jovee Farrugia, Owner/Manager, Ohla Nailbar

Irena was recommended to me by my Business Coach and I could not be happier with the positive impact she has had on my business.

Irena began by completing a full health check of my business and then clearly stated things that were mandatory obligations that needed attention and made suggestions to help improve business overall. She provided me with a detailed cash flow which helped me make future decisions and enabled me to understand which areas needed improvement.

Irena also handled payroll and all of my tax obligations. I felt relief that this had been taken off my already very full plate and trust that I was in great hands. 

I have met few people who are as thorough as Irena, she has laser focus and keeps everything very neat and tidy at all times.

I highly recommend her services to anyone who is looking to improve their business, I've had such a positive experience and am truly grateful for all of Irena's hard work.

Rod Tobin, Director, Condor Printing Pty Ltd

Irena provided fast and efficient services to Condor Printing in all facets of bookkeeping and accounting.

We have developed a great partnership and with her thorough approach, attention to detail and dedication to our company, she helped steer us thorough some challenging times.

Irena understood who we are and what we are trying to do.

Her honesty and dedication are beyond reproach and I firmly believe our lives would have been a lot more complicated if it wasn’t for the guidance and assistance that Irena gave us during this time.

Irena comes highly recommended.

Sheryl Klein, Director, Klein Migration Agents Pty Ltd

Irena provided clear and precise advice I could understand when starting my business. She explained the best way to structure my accounts and helped me understand how to keep track of everything, and stay on top of it all. Irena got my accounts organised and was always available to help me with any questions, meaning I could conduct my business with confidence.

Mark Spiteri, Director, Imani Paving Pty Ltd

Running a small business is a challenge every day, but knowing we have Irena’s constant support and expertise in managing our financials, allows us to flourish and continue to do what we do best.
Irena’s continual reporting on the latest information, tax regulations, reporting obligations is a great support to us. Her unwavering knowledge and care not only for our financial well being, but for our company’s well being on all fronts is what makes all the difference.  Irena is a big part of our team. Her professionalism and approachability anytime, ties her to our business forever. Irena, what would we do without you! We NEVER want to find out! You are stuck with us!!

From the team at Imani Paving, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all that you do, and all that you will continue to do for us.

Since engaging Irena for my business accounting, things have never been simpler! 

As a creative in a creative industry, numbers have never been my strong suit. 

With Irena on board, my accounts are now regimented and organised. Irena keeps me up to date both weekly and monthly on my Businesses cash flow position, and explains things to me kindly and easily. 

I continue to learn from Irena, and her advice and processes now act as a critical backbone to my small business.

Lauren Kelly, Salon Director & Head Hair Stylist, Hair and Beauty Bar Pty Ltd

Irena from IKCA is absolutely phenomenal, I am SO glad I found her.

She has been such a huge support for myself and my growing business. Any decision I need help with, she is right there and gives me her undivided attention. 

I feel my business is very secure in her hands and I could not recommend her enough. Her communication is constant and I never feel like I'm left behind. 

Honestly, I wouldn't be where I am in business today without Irena.
