What the film says
Lena has cut hair for twelve years. In March, she opens her own salon. She knows colour, and clients, and how to fill a Saturday.
She doesn't know what a BAS is. Her accountant's website says: BAS, bookkeeping, tax planning, business advisory. Lena reads it twice.
It's a list of words she was hoping someone else would understand. So the receipts go in a drawer. Then the first BAS is due, with a number she didn't put aside.
Now picture the same firm sending every new owner a short animated story of their first year, told from their side. Month one: Ruth sets up her books, and a separate account for the tax. Month three: the first BAS is already done.
Lena just checks it and approves it. Month six: Ruth rings. Winter's quiet in salons, so they plan for it.
Month twelve: her first tax return, and no surprises. One person to call, the whole way. Lena watches it before she signs up.
