BUSINESS ADVICE

Cash flow projections are an essential element of cash flow management. By preparing a cash flow projection you can also gain greater knowledge and confidence in businesses processes. Without cash flow, your businesses may struggle to pay debts and ultimately fail to provide for your life goals.

 

We provide all the coaching you could ask for, either privately or with a team and we’ll monitor your progress to make sure you have full understanding.

 

A critical element of controlling the growth of your business is to set clear and concise targets and to monitor your progress against them. We will help you identify and set these targets and assist you to develop and implement strategies which focus on the improvement of your business’s financial performance. We will provide you with the information and know-how to successfully monitor and improve the financial performance of your business.

 

Our methods will also prepare for potential cash shortages by:

  • Maintaining adequate cash reserves to pay bills

  • Expand the business and make capital improvements

  • Reduce interest costs through managing borrowing

  • Increase interest income by shifting funds into higher-interest accounts

  • Receive discounts through bulk purchasing

  • Improve relations with the bank

 

We can even help you create a personal plan to ensure that you enjoy a balanced lifestyle.

DUE DILIGENCE

Due diligence is the analysis of financial information so that a particular set of questions about a business can be understood. Due diligence is usually a process by which we gain an understanding of the financial information presented to us, and use that understanding to prove various aspects of the business.

​​

Due diligence is usually combined with a business valuation. In this combination we use the financial statements, business activity statements, leases, and any other financial information to analyse the correct value for the business.
