Your Trusted Remote Bookkeeper

Numbers Are My Passion

I’m Ronel, the owner of Counting Cents, and bookkeeping has been part of my life for more than three decades. I’ve worked with businesses of all shapes and sizes, and I know how overwhelming bookkeeping and payroll can feel when you’re trying to run a business, serve clients, and keep everything moving.

My approach is friendly, energetic, and collaborative, but always grounded in professionalism and accuracy. I work from a quiet home office, where I’ve built a system that allows me to deliver consistent, high‑quality results without the overheads of a traditional office.

My bookkeeping and payroll services are delivered entirely online, which means you get a dedicated, experienced bookkeeper at a fraction of the cost, no matter where in South Africa your business is located.

Here’s what you can expect when you work with me:

  • Accuracy First – Every transaction is captured, allocated, and reconciled with
      precision. No shortcuts, no guesswork.
  • Deadline-Driven – Your month-end reports, VAT submissions, and payroll are always delivered on time.
  • Clear Communication – I provide monthly feedback and reporting so you always understand the financial position of your business.
  • Fully Confidential – Your financial data is handled with the highest level of
      discretion and security.
  • Tech-Enabled – I work with Sage Pastel Accounting and Sage Business Payroll, making collaboration seamless and efficient.
