At Brackenfel Accountants, we believe that proper financial management goes far beyond ticking compliance boxes for the tax man—it is the foundation of a resilient, sustainable business.

You feel like a number to your current accountant: You are tired of reactive service from accountants who only "tick boxes" at year-end instead of offering proactive, strategic advice.
You lack absolute confidence in your numbers: You aren't 100% sure your bookkeeping is accurate, and the thought of a sudden SARS audit makes you nervous.
You feel like you are paying way too much income tax: You need an expert to review your structure, uncover missed deductions, and implement legitimate strategies to ensure you stop overpaying SARS.
You've outgrown your current setup: Your business is growing, but your financial systems haven't caught up, leaving you making major decisions on gut feeling rather than hard data.
You need a clean slate: You know your financials or tax affairs are a bit messy, and you want a judgment-free, professional roadmap to get everything fully compliant and organized.

Knowing Fanie used to audit for SARS gave us immediate peace of mind. He completely restructured our VAT and PAYE submissions during the exposure audit, identifying risks our previous accountant completely missed. A phenomenal, professional service.

We upgraded to their Professional package after our initial review. Fanie doesn't just process numbers; he acts like a true CFO for our business. His advice on cash flow management has been instrumental in our recent expansion across the Northern Suburbs.

Incredibly practical and direct. We were struggling with messy books and delayed CIPC filings. The team at Brackenfell Accountants sorted our compliance backlog faster than I thought possible and gave us a clear monthly structure moving forward.

It is a practical, 1-on-1 consultation where we assess your current bookkeeping accuracy, tax standing with SARS, statutory compliance, and cash flow structure to identify risks and growth opportunities.
Yes, it is 100% free. We normally charge R2,500 for this level of diagnostic consulting, but we waive that fee for first-time SME owners to prove our value upfront. No hidden fees, no credit card required.
Just 30 to 45 minutes. We respect your time. We get straight to the numbers, identify your exposure, and give you actionable next steps.
Almost nothing to start. Just bring yourself and a general understanding of your current revenue and biggest financial headaches. If we need specific documents later to dig deeper, we will guide you through exactly how to pull them easily.
Your review is conducted under the direct professional supervision of Dr. Fanie Theunissen, a former SARS VAT Auditor, Chartered Business Accountant (CIBA), and Registered Tax Practitioner (SAIT).
Absolutely not. Our goal is to give you massive clarity on your financial health. If you want us to help you fix the issues we find, we’d love to partner with you. If you just want to take the roadmap and implement it yourself, you are completely free to do so.
