Partners in Time

MEMBER BENEFITS

If there’s one thing we know about adawa members, it’s that time is at a premium. That’s why we jumped at the chance to partner with a business and lifestyle concierge service

Aimed at the time-poor professional, ONDA is a business and lifestyle concierge service providing Australian-based administration support. ADAWA recently partnered with ONDA to provide this timesaving service to our members, which will be tailored to the busy dental professional. “I’m delighted to be launching this partnership with ADAWA and am confident that by offering the services, experience and the aggregated buying power of ONDA, we will deliver world-class support, service and costs savings that truly benefits all

ADAWA members,” says George Wilson, ONDA CEO.

Rather than being in the financial-services sector,

George sees ONDA as providing a health and wellbeing service. “We believe everyone deserves the peace of mind of having a trusted guide who has their back in regards to all things financial,” he says.

“ONDA delivers outsourced practice bookkeeping and administration services on a fixed-fee basis, however, we also couple this by delivering our clients cost savings via reviews of service providers, and support our clients with world-leading security and technology to drive other business efficiencies. We can also support ADAWA members to save time and money across their personal financial management.” What the partnership means for adawa members

George says ONDA has partnered with ADAWA to offer tailored services to members, helping them gain time, clarity and peace of mind. ADAWA members can access an exclusive 15% reduction on all new ONDA service fees that are initiated this financial year. “Throughout the year we will also be inviting all members to benefit from our aggregate buying power with exclusive offers to reduce business costs. “ONDA believes that everyone deserves a fair go financially, which is why we manage independent reviews of practice costs like insurances and utility bills, and our clients receive all the savings – we don’t take commissions or incentives,” he adds. “With ONDA at their side as their trusted guide, our clients are able to focus on their patients and practices, spending time with loved ones and enjoying their free time.”

I was so time-poor I found it difficult to keep up, and now there’s a different mindset – it’s a sense of relief and I know that everything is being sorted out properly. The service is amazing. So, I am very happy. Damian - Lifestyle Concierge Client

To find out more about the ONDA and ADAWA partnership, come along to our General Meeting on March 10. “We would also like to invite members along to complimentary sessions to learn more about ONDA, and most importantly, so that we can learn about how we can best support the members,” George says.

Lifestyle Case Study

A busy medical practitioner relied heavily on his wife to run the household, looking after young children and managing the family finances. It was a lot to manage and led to unnecessary stress and disagreements. Service providers were rarely reviewed and it was a timeconsuming and frustrating experience when they were.

For $750 per month, ONDA is able to provide bill payments and reconciliations, annual service provider reviews and document storage and reminders for four family members. The main attributes of ONDA’s services this client valued most was the time and cost savings: • $1,400 reduction in general insurance plus identified one lapsed policy • $500 decrease in utility costs and 15% discounted solar installation

• $1,100 savings through renegotiation of bank interest rates • $600 of late fees and penalties avoided compared to last year

• Around 100 hours saved for the family throughout the year and tax time • ONDA’s fees for this client were 50% tax deductible, meaning the net cost of ONDA services was nil, after deductions, and cost savings Business Case Study

A practice was struggling to control salary costs, and this could not be addressed due to lack of clarity around the financial reporting. Their part-time finance function meant that when they were not working, nothing was being actioned, meaning financial information and supplier payments were always late and all these issues were compounded by using outdated accounting software.

ONDA Business Concierge delivers an outsourced bookkeeping and administration service which:

• Directly saved $30,000 annually in salaries

• Effectively managed the transfer to new accounting software • Delivered ongoing accurate and timely reporting

As part of their service, ONDA managed an independent review of their insurances, energy providers and other business costs:

• First year delivered in excess of $20,000 savings, reviewed annually thereafter • Total savings of $50,000+ delivered on the required practice outcomes

I would recommend ONDA to any organisation that is looking for additional support or to outsource completely. I have found it is peace of mind. I have found it a lot easier for our staff. It just takes a hell of a lot of pressure off and I finally receive the financial reporting I always needed but staff struggled to deliver.
