From Salon Bookkeeping Chaos to Focused on Styling Success
About Kudos Fitzroy
Natuzza Mazzitelli, an experienced hair stylist in Melbourne’s vibrant Fitzroy district, has been successfully running her salon for over 30 years. Throughout her career, she has navigated many reinventions and managed sizable styling teams while continuously adapting to stay relevant in the ever-evolving beauty industry.
Like many salon owners, Natuzza has dealt with the unique financial challenges that come with running a hairdressing business while trying to stay compliant with constantly changing regulations.
In recent years, Natuzza has made strategic choices to pare back and work with a smaller team as she approaches her retirement years. She remains committed to delivering exceptional styling services to her loyal clientele who have followed her throughout her career.
Drowning in Salon Administration
“Before coming to Cotchy, I was spending so much time on bookwork, trying to keep up with regulations and protocols and it was becoming increasingly harder. Technology was changing so fast I could not keep up,” Natuzza explains.
Why Natuzza Chose Cotchy
“I started as a client of Paris Financial and worked with Vishal Devie, who was always willing to help with my accounting needs. When he moved to become a Partner at Cotchy, I didn’t hesitate to follow him; the personal service and trust we’d developed was too valuable to lose,” Natuzza explains.
Complete Salon Transformation
“With Cotchy, I was able to have all the hard work taken from me so I could spend more time doing what I enjoyed in my business rather than all the paperwork and protocols,” Natuzza shares.
The change has been transformational for salon operations. Since partnering with Cotchy, every aspect of Kudos Fitzroy’s financial management has improved. The bookkeeping, BAS, and accounting tasks that once consumed her creative energy are now handled seamlessly by the Cotchy team.
The impact on salon operations has been comprehensive:
- Strategic tax planning for beauty businesses: Cotchy provided personalised advice on maximising tax strategies specific to salon operations, including equipment depreciation and product inventory management
- Complete compliance management: All regulatory requirements and protocols are handled professionally, removing the administrative burden that was keeping Natuzza away from her styling chair
- Clear financial separation: Proper tracking of income, payments, and retail product sales ensures complete transparency and compliance
“Cotchy has helped my business enormously with all the personalised advice on how to grow and maximise all the tax strategies on offer. I feel very secure with all the information and advice,” Natuzza notes.
Trust and Exceptional Service
“What I value most is being able to trust and communicate openly with Vishal. Whatever question or challenge I bring to him, I’m always met with a ‘no problem, we’ll sort it out’ attitude. He consistently goes above and beyond,” Natuzza explains.
Strong Recommendation
“Yes, I would recommend Cotchy to others and have done so. It is so comforting to have a team of people working in your best interest and feeling so looked after,” Natuzza concludes.
