Business Advisory
Here at Good Advice, we offer the full spectrum of business advisory services. Lessons learned from an array of business and industry qualifications, combined with first-hand experience of having run a number of successful enterprises ourselves, allow us to bring a fresh new perspective to any business challenges you might be experiencing. Seeing ourselves as 'advisors' - more than just 'consultants' - we aim to be seen as trusted partners with your business, acting as a sounding board for your ideas, while providing valuable insights of our own.
We have worked with clients as varied as media businesses; transport companies; photographers; bands; boutique backpackers; and IT consultants. With a special emphasis on start-ups, and small- to medium-sized businesses, we can advise you on:
- Strategy (eg. scenario planning, diversification/consolidation, HiveMind brainstorming)
- Finance (eg. accounting issues, improving cashflow, tax efficiency)
- Operations (eg. systems planning, asset efficiency, sense-testing)
- Marketing (eg. marketing plans, implementation, image management)
- Communications (eg. copywriting, editing, proof-reading)
- Turn-arounds (eg. disaster recovery, back-from-the-brink)
As with everything we do, the principle of fair exchange underlies our business advisory services. If our clients feel that we have not added or contributed anything of value to the equation, we charge no fees. No questions asked. That's how strongly we believe in what we can do for you...
Executive Coaching
One of our specialities, executive coaching bridges the gap between life coaching and business advisory. Aimed specifically at those running (or aspiring to run) their own businesses, we combine our entrepreneurial experience with our life coaching expertise, to help you realise your full personal and business potential.
Knowing full-well the demands of running your own enterprise, while trying to live a fulfilling private life, we can help you to gain perspective on it all, and achieve a much-needed balance. To find out more, please see 'Life Coaching' under What We Do (For Individuals), or contact us...
Employee Coaching
A very popular option, our employee coaching programmes and/or workshops are where we, on behalf of the employer, work with groups of employees on either:
- Life Coaching (eg. goal-setting, values, finding balance and fulfilment in their lives);
- Financial Coaching (eg. setting up a budget, debt management, planning for retirement);
- Health Coaching (eg. healthy eating plans, office fitness programmes);
- OR a combination of all three
These could be one-off workshops run in an afternoon, or extended coaching programmes with regular contact over a number of weeks or months. Not only is this type of workshop/coaching beneficial to your staff - showing them that you care about their all-round well-being - but you also come out of it with a happier, more motivated, more inspired workforce - leading to noticeable improvements in business performance (better morale, lower staff turnover, fewer sick days). Not to mention the contribution to your training programme, and a nice little tax deduction to boot!
