Business Financial Advisory

Financial advisory for businesses that have outgrown guesswork

Once a business crosses a few million in turnover, decisions made on gut feel start costing real money. We bring the structure — forecasting, tax efficiency, reporting — without requiring you to hire a CFO.

Who we work with

Advisory shaped to your sector

Professional services firms

Focus on partner drawings structuring, provisional tax smoothing and succession-ready financials.

Retail and hospitality

Cash flow forecasting around seasonality, stock financing decisions, and VAT timing.

Property and construction

Project-based cash flow modelling, retention accounting, and capital gains planning on disposals.

Professional consultancies and agencies

Billing efficiency review, contractor vs. employee tax structuring, and scalable reporting templates.

Client story

R840,000 in identified tax savings for a 22-person logistics business

R840K combined tax efficiencies and refund recoveries, one financial year

A Woodstock-based logistics company came to us with healthy revenue but consistently tight cash — despite a profitable income statement, the owner couldn't explain where the money went month to month.

We rebuilt their 13-week cash flow model, restructured how the director's remuneration was drawn, and corrected a provisional tax overpayment stretching back two years.

Within one financial year, the business identified R840,000 in combined tax efficiencies and refund recoveries, and moved from reactive bookkeeping to a monthly board pack the whole leadership team could read.

"

For the first time, our monthly numbers tell us something we can act on, not just a balance we have to trust.
