About My Business
ACC Assist is a specialist consultancy service dedicated to helping business owners, self-employed individuals and contractors, navigate the complexities of ACC with confidence. We simplify what can often be a confusing and time-consuming system by providing expert consultancy, ongoing account management, and tailored levy optimisation strategies. Our goal is simple: save our clients time, money, and unnecessary stress while ensuring they receive the most appropriate ACC cover for their circumstances. Our services include comprehensive CoverPlus Extra (CPX) consultancy and management, helping clients understand whether CPX is the right option and managing the entire application process from start to finish. We also review ACC invoices and levies to identify overcharges, incorrect classifications and billing errors to ensure clients pay only what they should. Beyond levy optimisation, ACC Assist acts as a dedicated liaison with ACC, managing correspondence, policy changes, business structure updates, payment extensions, reinstatements, and ongoing administration on our clients' behalf. Whether a business is growing, restructuring, changing ownership, or simply wants the peace of mind that comes with expert oversight, we provide proactive support every step of the way. With over 15 years of specialist ACC experience, ACC Assist combines technical expertise with a personalised, relationship-driven approach. Rather than offering one-off advice, we become an extension of our clients' businesses and financial services network, monitoring their ACC obligations, identifying opportunities for improvement, and keeping them informed of changes that may impact their levies or cover. At ACC Assist, we believe business owners should be focused on running and growing their businesses—not navigating ACC administration. By taking ownership of these responsibilities, we give our clients confidence that their ACC matters are being managed accurately, efficiently, and strategically, allowing them to concentrate on what they do best.
Why We Should Win The Peoples Choice Award
If you've ever dealt with ACC as a business owner, you'll know it can be confusing, time-consuming, and, at times, incredibly frustrating. Most people simply accept what they're told because they don't know there are other options or someone who can help. That's why I started ACC Assist. My business isn't about selling a product—it's about standing beside people when they need someone in their corner. Whether it's identifying incorrect levies, helping someone secure the right ACC cover, or navigating complex ACC processes, my goal has always been to make life easier for New Zealand business owners and self-employed people. What motivates me isn't the paperwork or the policies; it's the relief clients feel when they realise someone genuinely understands the system and is willing to advocate for them. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to turn. Seeing that stress replaced with confidence is the most rewarding part of what I do. I also believe knowledge should be shared, not kept behind closed doors. Through educational presentations, workshops, social media, and everyday conversations, I work hard to help business owners and professional advisers better understand ACC so they can make informed decisions. If I can prevent someone from making an expensive mistake or help them discover an opportunity they didn't know existed, then I've achieved exactly what I set out to do. Being recognised with the People's Choice Award would mean so much because it represents the people I have built my business for. Every referral, recommendation, and message of thanks reminds me that trust is earned through consistently showing up, solving problems, and putting clients first. Voting for ACC Assist is a vote for a small New Zealand business that exists to make a complicated system simpler and fairer for others. It is recognition that specialist knowledge, genuine care, and personal service still matter. While I may work behind the scenes, the impact of that work is felt by hundreds of business owners who can spend less time worrying about ACC and more time focusing on their businesses and families. If my work has educated, supported, or positively influenced the way people think about ACC, then I hope I've earned your vote. Thank you for supporting my small business, recognising specialist expertise, and believing in the difference one person can make.
