What can we do for you?

Strategic Planning

Create watertight business and financial plans by learning from your past, understanding where your business is now and plan where you want your business to go – and beyond. We will be your 24/7 guiding hands and constant support, setting your targets, monitoring your performance and keep your plans on track, re-assessing regularly to reflect new ideas and fresh challenges for growth, turnaround or exit.
Where do you achieve your highest margin? Are there areas of the business that you should grow or cut back? Larger businesses evaluate their finances daily, optimising performance and avoiding disaster. Smaller businesses need this too, even more so, but often cannot afford their own Finance Director. We will be your personal Finance Directors, guiding you to stability and growth.
The most critical element for any small business – we can build your cash forecast and monitor your cash balances to help you manage and plan ahead your cash, as well as help you if the time comes to seek a cash injection to achieve your plans. We’ll be by your side helping you build your relationship with your bank and guide you to attracting significant investment. Get in touch to find out how.
