Why not just…

What owners ask before they decide.

…hire a part-timer?

Half the hours, and still away in August. The paperwork carries on through their days off. Nexley works evenings and weekends.

…keep doing it myself?

That's the eight hours a week you're already giving away. Keep the approving and hand over the typing.

…use ChatGPT?

It can't see your Xero, inbox or diary. Nexley is connected to them and remembers how you like things done.
