The Vision

Our story began with Sarah-Leigh Martin, an accountant and entrepreneur with vision.

The Evolution

In 2025, that vision grew stronger when she and Kenny Archer joined forces.

Core Values

At TaxEy, we value connection as much as we value compliance.

Future Focus

Technology and legislation are changing rapidly and we are ready for these disruptions.

The Vision: It Started with Sarah-Leigh

It Started with a People-First Approach.

Welcome to TaxEy. We believe the person behind the business is just as important as the balance sheet. Our story began with Sarah-Leigh Martin, an accountant and entrepreneur who wanted to change the face of the finance industry. After years of working across multiple sectors since 2006, she noticed a people first approach was missing. She founded her own firm in 2018, driven by a desire to offer down to earth service built on trust and modern accounting tools.

The Evolution: Combining Energy and Trust

The Perfect Partnership.

That evolution stepped into an expansive new chapter with Executive Business Coach Kenny Archer joining the business. Bringing over three decades of high-level corporate leadership, proven strategic execution, and deep expertise in executive coaching, Kenny adds a powerful dimension of growth-focused governance to our foundational expertise. This integration merges decades of top-tier enterprise leadership with our team’s signature energy, creativity, and personal approach. By combining strategic business coaching with our core solutions, we have successfully niched ourselves between traditional corporate advisory firms and standard local consultancies.

Core Values

Connection and Compliance.

At TaxEy, we value connection as much as we value compliance. We build lasting relationships through honesty, warmth, and genuine care. Our goal is to empower you, the business owner, to truly understand your numbers and feel confident in your financial decisions.

Future Focus

Ready for Disruption.

Technology, legislation, and markets are changing rapidly. We have made great effort to ensure that we are ready for these disruptions in the accounting profession. Our responsibility is to remain ahead of these changes, ensuring that we and our clients are prepared so you can stay ahead and prosper.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

From Chaos to Clarity

$

The Personal Touch

You are not just a tax reference number to us. We provide dedicated, human support to answer your questions and calm your nerves, offering strategic advice that is as unique as your business.

$

Effortless Admin

Forget drowning in paperwork. We use smart, cloud-based solutions to tidy up your admin, giving you instant access to your financial health without the clutter, the confusion, or the paper cuts.

My financial records are currently living in a chaotic shoebox. Will you judge me?

Absolutely not. In fact, untangling a “shoebox of doom” is one of our specialities. We know that when you are busy building a business, filing receipts is usually the last thing on your mind. Bring us your chaos, your crumpled invoices, and your mystery spreadsheets. We will sort, organise, and digitise them into a clear financial picture without a single tut of disapproval.

Can’t I just file my own tax returns and save on the fees?

You certainly can, much like you could cut your own hair or fix your own plumbing. But, much like a bad haircut, a DIY tax return can leave you with some awkward regrets. Tax laws change constantly, and it is easy to miss out on legal deductions or accidentally trigger an audit. We often find that our fees pay for themselves in the tax savings we find and the penalties we help you avoid.

I am behind on my submissions and terrified to answer the phone. Is it too late to fix it?

It is never too late, and hiding under the desk won’t make the taxman go away (we’ve tried). The best approach is to face it head-on, but you don’t have to do it alone. We act as the buffer between you and the authorities. We will help you catch up, submit any outstanding returns, and can even help negotiate payment arrangements if needed. Let us handle the scary stuff so you can breathe easy again.

What Our Clients Are Saying

(The Tax Fairy in Action)

“A satisfied customer is the best business strategy of all” – Michael LeBoeuf

“I have been using TaxEy’s services for almost three years now. They handle my business’s monthly accounting, annual SARS and CIPC submissions, as well as my personal tax. Not having the capabilities to deal with this myself—and not needing a full-time accountant—this is the perfect solution for small businesses like Syntony. Affordable, reliable, and highly professional service. Thank you, Sarah and your team.”

D. Drake

(Global Tech | Sunsynk SA)

“Sarah from TaxEy took over my tax and accounting in 2018. She inherited a huge tax issue created by my previous accountant, sorted it out—and we’ve never looked back. Her services are fantastic, on time, and completely hassle-free from my side. TaxEy handles both my personal and business accounting and taxes. On the personal side, she and my financial broker manage all my investments and provisional taxes, and I never have to worry—they always have my best interests in mind. On the business side: VAT, payroll, CIPC, business tax, and any official company changes—done. Not only are Sarah and her team exceptional, they’re genuinely amazing people. Nothing is too much, and everything is always on time. I have, and will always, recommend and refer Sarah and TaxEy. They are simply the best.”
