Does this sound familiar ?

You’re busy, sales are coming in, but you’re still not completely sure how the business is really performing.

Do you sometimes find yourself asking yourself questions like these? 

  • Why does cash feel tight even when sales are good ?

  • Is the business actually making the money it should ?

  • How can I build wealth for myself in this business ?

  • Which parts of the business make money and which might be losing money ?

  • Can I afford to pay myself more ?

  • If I take more time off, won't the business suffer financially ?

  • Can the business afford to take on more staff?

What its like to work together ...

Elaine has been so helpful in my business- she has made abig difference in the way I look at things. I would highly recommend Elaine to anyone who wants to understand their business better.

Bryan O'Flynn

Southern Renovations

I was always worried about taking time off as there would be no money coming in while I was away. Elaine showed me how to plan for that using cashflow forecasting so I’m much more relaxed about it now. I take Saturdays off as well now! 

Dr. Jamie Cummins

Birr Dental Care

I know how to financially plan for myself now. I feel a lot calmer within my business and don’t feel that I need to book everyone in ASAP as I’m making enough.

How I Work

1

Book an initial conversation

The first step is simply to talk. 

I’ll ask about your business how you currently manage things and what you feel is working- or not working- at the moment. 

You don’t need to have everything organised before we speak. In fact, very often the reason someone gets in touch is because they’re not quite sure what they need.

My job is to help work that out with you. 

2

I look at what you already have in place,

Before recommending anything, I want to understand what information and systems already available. 

Where possible, I work with what is already there rather than introducing new systems unnecessarily. 

Sometimes only a few changes are needed. Other times, there are gaps that need to be filled before you can get a reliable picture of how the business is performing. 

3

We decide what best...

Once I understand the current position, I’ll recommend the support I think will be most useful. That might be putting stronger financial foundations in place. 

It might mean taking over your bookkeeping and providing regular analysis alongside it.

Or you may already have good bookkeeping in place and simply need someone to look more closely at performance, margins, costs,and the areas that are driving – or limiting- profit. 

You'll receive a clear proposal setting out what I recommend, costs and what is involved before you any further commitment required.
