We are really proud to be one of the local businesses able to contribute towards the new community Christmas tree after the original was damaged. This is such a cool example of what happens when locals pull together 💪🏻

Huge credit to everyone involved in organising, transporting and installing the tree and to the community for jumping in to help decorate it!

This is why we love doing business in Timaru 💚🥰

Hey Folks!

The good news is spreading! As many of you will know a tree has gone up on the Piazza.

Christmas has been saved in Timaru thanks to local businesses coming together. The wider community has a chance to help too.

A community-led proposal has been progressed to install a felled pine tree, to replace the fire damaged Christmas tree, at the top of the Bay Hill.

Local business leader Gordon Handy was relaxing on Friday night after hearing about the Christmas tree being damaged early the same morning and thought “the community has to have a Christmas tree.”

And the tree was transported and made possible thanks to Gordon's collaboration with Hilton Haulage Limited, Fabetch and Hardie Building 2024.

In response to the tree going up last night, it was seen the community were excited and wanting to help.

Members of the community who wish to contribute to the tree decorations may drop in an ornament to any Timaru District Libraries from Wednesday 17 December to Thursday 18 December 3pm.

Due to health and safety restrictions, council staff will be hanging these decorations on behalf of the community.

Decorations need to be sturdy (no glass or ceramics) and around the size of a tennis ball. Alternatively, a piece of wide ribbon or cloth (able to be tied) of festive colour(s) will also be accepted.

Donations to contribute to the cost of decorations have also been received from Tyson Ford Carpentry, South Canterbury Roofing, Manage My Cashflow, South Canterbury Neighbourhood Support, IHC South Canterbury, Pampered to Perfection, Shiphop Brewery, Clark Decorating and James Meager MP for Rangitata.

🙌 These epic tradies are absolutely worthy of a massive shout-out!!!

Their Business Planning Breakthrough + 12-month cashflow forecast was the 'game changer' that flipped the script for their business. Instead of making crazy impulse decisions (and trust me, there were A LOT before this plan..... 😅), they’re now on a clear path with confidence and purpose + cash in the bank!!

Since our Business Plan Breakthrough in April, we’ve been:

💬 Checking in often – because great plans need regular accountability check-ins
🗓 Continually reviewing + planning so they stay ahead of the game and changes that pop up

And look what’s happened 👇

📈 Lifted net profit by 74% + – without piling on extra hours
🔧 Tightened margins so every material cost is recovered
🛠 Upgraded their gear + grabbed some new assets to run smoother and future-proof the biz
🏝 Already taken an overseas holiday – with 1–2 more in the works ✈️
📊 Hit the top target of their 12-month cashflow forecast every single month – well ahead of plan
🗺 Locked in a 5-year vision so they’re steering, not drifting

🤫 Bonus: This wasn’t some dusty, boring boardroom business plan – we were out and about on secret adventures while mapping their future. Because business should be fun as well as focused!

Big congrats to you legends! You’re proof that planning + action = epic results.

EPIC NEWS ALERT 🚨
We’ve just been named FINALISTS for not one but TWO awards:
✨ Three Freedoms Award
✨ Emerging Advisory Firm of the Year

Honestly? I’m bloody proud!!
This isn’t just about shiny titles, it’s recognition that the way we’re doing things works.
We’re not just helping clients get on top of their numbers. We’re helping them build the businesses (and lives!) they actually want. Ones with more time, more freedom, more profit and less chaos. 🤪

And I’m doing the same for myself too. This little firm is the dream I once scribbled in one of my gazillion notebooks, and now it’s creating real change for real people. 🥹

This didn’t happen by accident. It happened because I’ve gone 100% in. It’s a hell yes or hell no approach around here — whether it’s the clients we work with, the advice we give, or the way we show up.

Thanks to everyone who’s been part of the journey so far, especially the brave, committed business owners who trust us with their dreams.

Let’s keep building dream businesses — yours AND mine. 💥🥹🍩😁
