Advice and setting up business structure

We set up the following structures at very affordable price:
• Sole Trader
• Partnership
• Company
• Trust – Discretionary or Fixed Trust (Including Land Tax Fixed Trust)
Every client has one common objective of maximising the profits but still every client is different from their risk perspectives, level of wealth, family situations etc. We explain the pros and cons of using different types of business structures like sole trader, partnership, company and trust. We help our clients in choosing the best business structure and sometimes a combination of two or more structures to achieve their long term objectives.

Budgeting

A good budget is a necessity in a good business plan. It is one of the best business tools you can have, enabling you to set financial targets and measure your performance.
In addition to goal-setting value, budgets will often improve your chances of acquiring funding. Financiers often require budgets as a prerequisite for funding approval.
The techniques we utilise to form financial projections enable you to consider future scenarios and provide you with goals to strive for in your business. There are many types of budgets. We can help you design the right budget for your requirements.
Let us show you how a budget can provide feedback that helps you prepare for the future of your business!
