Business Advisory

The part of the relationship that changes the outcome.

Compliance tells you what happened. Advisory work is about what happens next: whether the margin supports the hire, what the tax position looks like under each option, how the structure should change as the business grows, and what the numbers say about the decision in front of you.

We stay close enough to the figures through the year to have a view when you ask. That means a standing rhythm of management information and review meetings rather than a call in the ninth month after the year end.

Business Advisory · 01

Model the commitment before you make it.

Budgets and rolling forecasts built on your actual figures, with cash flow projected far enough ahead to be useful. We model the hire, the premises, the equipment or the acquisition, so the question stops being whether it feels affordable and becomes what it does to cash in month seven.

Business Advisory · 02

Figures delivered while the period still matters.

Monthly or quarterly management accounts with the analysis that makes them worth reading: margin by product, service line or contract, overhead trends, debtor and creditor position, and performance against the plan. Reported in a format you can take to a lender, an investor or your own management team.

Business Advisory · 03

Structure considered ahead of the transaction.

How the business is held shapes the tax position for years afterwards. We advise on company and group structures, holding companies, trading and investment activities held together, and the timing of profit extraction, before the arrangement is set rather than once it has been.

Business Advisory · 04

Test the plan against the alternatives.

Where the business is heading, what it needs to get there, and what each route costs. We model scenarios side by side (organic growth, a new site, a hire, an acquisition) and set out what each does to margin, cash and tax, so the choice is made on figures rather than instinct.

Business Advisory · 05

The work that takes years, not weeks.

Preparing a business to be sold, passed on or restructured is rarely a single piece of work. We advise on succession and exit structures, reorganisations and transaction support, and on the personal tax consequences for the owner, ideally long enough in advance that the options are still open.

Most advisory relationships settle into a rhythm: management information through the year, a forecast kept current, tax projections before the year end, and a standing review meeting where the plan gets tested against what has actually happened. The specifics depend on the business.

05 · A conversation

If you need more from your accountant, we should talk.

An initial conversation is an opportunity to understand your business or personal circumstances, what is changing and the decisions ahead. We will establish what you need and whether the Tax Network Group is the right firm to provide it. We work with a deliberately selective client base, so it is important to establish the right fit from the outset.
