WHAT WE DO
Empower you to achieve your vision
A well-oiled machine
Just as a well-oiled machine operates with efficiency, precision, and reliability, effective financial management ensures your business runs smoothly, without unnecessary hitches.
This involves not just regular maintenance in the form of continuous monitoring and analysis of your financial health, but also navigating the financial landscape to make informed decisions that propel growth, ensure sustainability, and avoid the pitfalls of financial mismanagement.
By maintaining your financials with care and expertise, we ensure your business not only runs like a well-oiled machine, but powers you towards your next phase of growth with confidence and clarity.
We understand that your business is unique, and that’s why we tailor our approach to fit your specific needs. By developing robust financial management, we help you with:
Strategic growth
We don’t just merely monitor your finances; we actively identify opportunities for efficiency and growth. By optimising cash flow, you’re equipped to scale confidently, transforming underutilised assets into powerful tools for sustainable expansion.
Financial stability
The continuous monitoring and optimisation of cash flow fortifies your financial backbone. This not only prevents cash shortages but also establishes a healthy balance between income and expenses, providing you peace of mind and a solid foundation for growth.
Data-driven strategic planning
The provision of a clear financial roadmap, complete with forecasting and budgeting, are what you need to scale and grow your business. It enables you to plan and execute strategies with confidence, ensuring that each investment is a calculated step towards achieving your vision.
Bringing Rachelle in is one of the best business decisions I’ve made. Her expertise in finance, systems and processes means we know that our operations are robust. This has freed our time up to concentrate on what we do best.

Cash flow management
Cash is king. You could be on track to make half a million dollars profit this year, but without cash flow you don’t have a viable and sustainable business. We monitor, analyse, and optimise your cash flow, turning numbers into insights that can be used to make decisions based on data.
Enhanced financial stability
By continuously monitoring and analysing your cash flow, we ensure that your business operates on a solid financial foundation. This ongoing vigilance helps to prevent stressful cash shortages, manage expenses more effectively, and maintain a healthy balance between income and outgoings, contributing to overall financial stability and peace of mind.
Optimisation of cash flow for growth
We don’t just stop at monitoring and analysis; we actively seek ways to optimise your cash flow. This can involve identifying underutilised assets, reducing inefficiencies, or uncovering new opportunities for revenue. By ensuring your cash flow is as efficient as possible, we pave the way for sustainable growth, enabling you to scale your business with confidence.
Informed strategic decisions
Turning numbers into insights allows you to make strategic decisions based on accurate, real-time data. This means investments in your business, expansion plans, or any adjustments to operations are grounded in a clear understanding of your financial situation, reducing risk and enhancing the potential for success.
Budgeting and forecasting
We equip you with a clear financial roadmap, tailored to your business. We help you plan with confidence by providing transparent, easy to understand cash flow forecasting and meaningful budgets.
Strategic planning and goal focused
With a clear financial roadmap tailored to your business, you can set strategic goals and plan for the future with confidence. We help you align your financial resources with your business goals, ensuring that every dollar spent is a step towards achieving your long-term vision.
Risk management and mitigation
By providing transparent and easy-to-understand cash flow forecasting, we help you anticipate future financial challenging periods and opportunities. This foresight allows you to prepare for potential cash flow shortages or identify periods of surplus, enabling effective risk management and mitigation strategies to be put in place.
Improved decision making
Armed with meaningful budgets and accurate forecasts, you are better equipped to make informed decisions about investments, expenses, and growth initiatives. This clarity and insight into your financial trajectory empowers you to optimise your resources, seize opportunities, and confidently steer your business towards achieving your vision.
Financial reporting
Experience the peace of mind that comes with having a transparent overview of your business’s financial health. We provide you with accurate, timely, and relevant financial information, in an easy-to understand format, so you can make informed decisions based on data.
Transparency and clarity
We provide a transparent overview of your business’s financial health, presenting complex financial data in an easy-to-understand format. This clarity ensures that you, as the Founder, have a precise understanding of your financial status at all times, allowing for more informed and confident decision-making.
Data-driven decision making
With access to accurate, timely, and relevant financial information, you are empowered to make strategic business decisions based on solid data rather than intuition. This approach minimises risks and enhances the potential for achieving your vision, ensuring every move you make is backed by robust financial insight.
Performance monitoring and improvement
Regular and comprehensive financial reporting allows you to monitor your business’s performance against its financial goals and benchmarks. This ongoing insight is invaluable for identifying trends, strengths, and areas needing improvement, enabling you to take proactive steps to enhance your business’s financial health and operational efficiency.
Financial analysis
Uncover the story behind the numbers. Our financial analysis dives deep into your business’s financial data, identifying trends, opportunities, and areas for improvement. This ensures your finances are aligned with your future growth plans.
Insightful trend identification
Our financial analysis goes beyond the surface, identifying underlying trends within your financial data. This insight allows for the anticipation of future movements, helping you to strategise proactively rather than reactively. By understanding these trends, we align your operations and strategies with the most promising opportunities for growth and improvement.
Opportunity and risk discovery
By diving deep into your financial data, we uncover not only areas for improvement but also hidden opportunities that could be leveraged for your business’s advantage. Identifying these opportunities early on enables you to capitalise on them, driving growth. Similarly, recognising potential risks before they materialise allows for the implementation of mitigation strategies, safeguarding your business’s future.
Strategic financial alignment
Our financial analysis ensures that every aspect of your business’s finances is meticulously examined and aligned with your future growth plans. This alignment is crucial for ensuring that your resources are optimally allocated and that your financial strategies support your overarching vision. It provides a solid foundation upon which to build sustainable growth, making sure every financial decision contributes positively to your long-term goals.
Cost reduction strategies
Maximise profitability without compromising quality. We identify and implement effective cost reduction strategies that streamline operations, identify opportunities and enhance efficiencies.
Increased profit margins
By identifying and implementing effective cost reduction strategies, we help you increase your profit margins without compromising the quality of your products and/or services. Streamlining operations and enhancing efficiencies lead to lower operational costs, which, in turn, boost profitability, ensuring that you can reinvest in areas that will actually drive growth.
Enhanced operational efficiency
We focus on streamlining your operations, eliminating unnecessary expenses, and improving process efficiencies. This not only reduces costs but also enhances your overall operational effectiveness. Efficient operations means you can deliver your products and/or services quicker and more reliably, increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Strategic resource allocation
By reducing costs in non-critical areas, we free up resources that can be better allocated towards strategic investments, such as technology upgrades, market expansion, or research and development. This strategic allocation of resources supports sustainable growth and innovation, ensuring your business remains competitive and well-positioned for future opportunities.

Since we met Rachelle, we haven’t looked back. Rachelle gets me out of the way and enables me to step back and focus on the big picture. This is the part that I value the most.
Four ways we can work with you
We understand that business needs are different and we wouldn’t be doing our job of providing you solutions, if we didn’t provide you flexible options.
Project based
If you’re not at the level needed for someone to run your day-to-day operations but need someone to help you complete projects here and there, we can work with you on a project-by-project basis. This can include:
- System set-up or improvement
- Process set-up or improvement
- Software integrations
- Website marketing audits
- Website updates
- Financial analysis of current marketing activities
- Project management
As all projects are different, project based engagements are priced on a per project basis. Please get in touch to let us know what projects you’d like to complete.

The monthly retainer is designed for business owners who want to step away from the day-to-day time-consuming tasks, so you can focus your time and energy on growing your business.
The monthly retainer includes all Operations, Marketing and Finance Management services (we don’t have different prices for different services). As a snapshot it includes:
- Strategic team management
- Looking after your day-to-day operations and making sure they align with your long-term goals

Get in touch to get started.
Hourly
We can also start working with you based on an hourly rate. Whilst this rate is higher than a retainer rate, we have found it works well for business owners who:
- Are new to outsourcing this level of business support and aren’t 100% sure of the level of support they need at the start.
- Would like a flexible approach to start to ensure we’re a good fit and work well together before moving forward on an on-going basis.
- Are still working on their budget. They know their business needs this level of support but cashflow is currently tight and they need to work through that.
If you’re not really sure how many hours a week you’d like to start with, you let us know how many hours a week you’d like us to stick to and we work to that.
Hourly rate: $120/hr + GST
