"It Was A Very Good Year"

Turning the numbers into high quality, decision-useful reports and helping you to understand them - it's about planning forward, as well as looking back:

  • Compiling the annual financial statements and tax returns for your entity in line with legislative requirements.

  • An annual meeting is included as part of this process to ensure you understand the reports, to review the year that was and ask any questions.

  • It is also important to take the opportunity to give some consideration to and plan for the year ahead - what do you hope to achieve, what needs to change, which direction is your business headed in etc?

"Opportunities
(Let's Make Lots of Money)"

Arming you with the information and support you need to make better business decisions, to achieve better business results:

  • Working with you to set a strategic budget for your business to manage cashflow, prepare for growth, and project tax liabilities.

  • Preparation of budget and cashflow forecast reports and the key assumptions behind the numbers - these reports may be required by financiers to secure funding.

  • Scenario planning to help you visualise the impact of different scenarios and identify potential weaknesses.

  • Management reporting - periodic reports customised for your business to monitor performance and based on goals and KPIs identified with you.

  • Depending on requirements, management reporting may include profit and loss statement, balance sheet, cashflow, KPI dashboard, budget versus actual variance reporting etc.

"Start Me Up"

Setting you up with the systems, automation, training and ongoing support to do as much or as little in your business as you would like - this one's all about teaching, and not preaching:

  • Advice around business trading structures, and the pros and cons as applicable to your individual situation.
