Behind the Bar and Behind the Books With the Exchange Hotel and Ami Who

Janine Bullers and her husband Karl own three hospitality venues in Perth, Western Australia: The Exchange Hotel, The National Hotel, and The Old Courthouse. When they launched their newest venue, The Exchange Hotel in Pinjarra, they turned to Ami Who for bookkeeping support, giving them the freedom to focus on the strategic side of running multiple venues.

Lightyear was rolled out across the 3 venues, and it has been a gamechanger for both Janine and Ami, helping to streamline AP processes and free up valuable time. We sat down with them to chat about how Lightyear has impacted Ami’s practice and made a real difference for her clients’ accounts payable workflows.
