Custodian Backoffice

Managing a good operation and running a good business are not the same thing. A good operation is an essential part of a good business but a good business is also reliable, predictable and sustainable.

Owners spend years placing their trust in good, (but the wrong) people HOPING for them to turn a profit at the end of the day

They are the wrong people because business management is an expert skill, it’s not merely a job title on an organisation chart handed out as a reward for effort and attitude.

Understanding the technical work of the business is different from understanding the business that does the technical work. Michael Ge**er calls this the Fatal Assumption that most entrepreneurs make.

Many businesses simply do not possess the in-house capability (skills and experience) to implement their plans and seize opportunities.

Imagine the possibilities of combining your good operation with some top shelf strategic and commercial financial leadership, but only pay for it when you use it.

Now stop imagining and do something proactive about it !

I provide specialist CFO expertise without the overhead.

Business owners can rely on Custodian Backoffice to build a picture of the future through their numbers, which improves profitability and puts them back in control.

By removing distractions, chaos and uncertainty business owners become free to focus on customers’ needs and grow their business.

Implementing our best practice financial management ecosystem creates valuable lead-time to make informed strategic decisions which leads businesses onto the right path and helps them to stay on track.

Our weapons of choice are budgets, forecasts, KPI's and cashflow management which work together to provide feedback on how the strategy is working and the ability to anticipate, evaluate and navigate the future in a reliable, predictable way.

Most companies in the $2M-$30M turnover range can’t afford and don’t need a FTI (full-time internal) CFO, but their bookkeeper and tax accountant can’t provide the specialist expertise they need.

But, rather than have an expensive overhead chewing away at your bottom line waiting for projects to do, or month end to roll around, plenty of clients have realised the benefits in having an on-demand Virtual CFO by their side, as and when they need one.

“Wouldn’t it be great if we could tap into top shelf CFO skills, as and when we needed them, without the hassle and expense of recruiting then training someone?”

You can.

And if you’re not an expert on accounting and commercial matters yourself, you might save yourself making a costly mistake.

A lot of business owners think that hiring a CFO directly as an employee will be cheaper than paying a contractor and no harder than posting an advertisement on Seek , then watching dozens of ideal candidates line up.

But it’s much harder than most people think and it’s quite easy to get it wrong. One in 5 new ‘hires’ won’t last a year and the average tenure for a CFO is about 3 years.

Outsourcing Virtual CFO creates less headaches, gives business owners peace of mind and flexibility which represents better value over the long term.

There is more to running a successful transport business than just doing a good job, having happy customers and balancing the books.
Increases to drivers pay, fuel, more compliance around load limits, axle weights and driver hours, together with downward pressure on freight + storage rates all make running a transport company as hard as it’s ever been.
Now more than ever, Transport and Logistics businesses need an advisor with Industry expertise to stay ahead of their competitors. You need more than just a bookkeeper and a separate Tax agent who has 100’s of other clients and main goal is simply to lodge your tax on-time.
We work closely with your management team as an external CFO to provide financial insights and foresight into the future, allowing you to concentrate on your customers, grow your business and have peace of mind.
