Every New Client Creates Global Impact: How PBS Is Changing Lives Through B1G1

What if I told you that every time we welcome a new client at PBS Accountants & Advisers, or lodge another set of tax documents, we're not just transforming their financial future – we're literally changing lives around the world?

It sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? But that's exactly what's happening through our partnership with B1G1 (Business for Good), and I'm excited to share how this simple yet powerful approach is helping us give back to our community and the world, one client at a time.

Why We Chose to Give Back

After 40+ years in business, we've learned that success isn't just measured by the bottom line. Sure, we're passionate about helping our clients legally minimise their tax, maximise their profits, and achieve better work-life balance – that's our bread and butter. But we've always believed that with success comes responsibility.

Steve Markovich, our CEO, put it perfectly during one of our team meetings: "We've been blessed to work with incredible clients who trust us with their financial futures. It feels right to share that blessing with people who haven't had the same opportunities."

That's when we discovered B1G1 – a platform that makes giving back as natural as breathing, integrated right into our daily operations.

How B1G1 Works (And Why It's Brilliant)

B1G1 helps businesses create tangible, real impacts while building and growing their standout business. The concept is beautifully simple: every time something good happens in your business, something great happens in the world.

For PBS, we've currently set up automatic giving triggers:

  • New client onboarding = 140 nights of shelter for homeless children
  • Compliance lodged = Two days of essential household items for farmers
  • Google Review = 8 days of education support to disadvantaged children

The best part? It integrates seamlessly into daily operations with automated giving using built-in tools and resources. We don't have to remember to donate – it happens automatically as we serve our clients.

More Than Just Giving – Building Purpose

What surprised us most wasn't the impact we were creating (though that's been incredible), but how this approach transformed our own team culture.

Our Admin manager and mother of young children, Jess recently told me:"As a mum, it means the world to know that a business is making a real difference for children in need. Supporting B1G1 shows heart — and seeing you turn everyday success into meaningful impact is incredibly inspiring. It's the kind of world I want my kids to grow up in."
