Every tier includes

What you get, regardless of tier

Two experienced advisors

Paul and Mark attend every monthly board meeting. You always get both perspectives — strategy and retail finance — in the room.

Monthly performance report

Prepared and shared 48 hours before every meeting. Business snapshot, health check, financials, and marketing review — so you arrive informed.

Your personalised Business Hub

Built specifically around your business during onboarding. Updated after every meeting so it stays current and useful between sessions.

Between-meeting support

Questions don't wait for meeting day. Access business-specific support any time — evenings, weekends, whenever you need a sounding board.

Action tracking & accountability

Every action agreed in the meeting has a name and a date. We follow up. No decisions slip through the cracks.

Advice that gets sharper over time

The longer we work together, the better we know your business. Month by month, the advice compounds in value.

Why there's a one-off onboarding investment

We spend serious time learning your business

Before we give you any advice, we do a deep-dive into every aspect of your business — your financials, your goals, your challenges, your team, your market. This isn't a quick form. It's a thorough discovery process that takes real time from both of us.

  • In-depth discovery sessions with Paul and Mark
  • Review of your financial documents and statements
  • Goal setting and priority alignment
  • Business Hub built and loaded with your context
  • First board meeting structure established

The foundation everything else is built on

The quality of your onboarding directly determines the quality of advice you get from day one. The more thoroughly we understand your business at the start, the more useful every meeting — and every conversation in between — will be.

Think of it as the investment that makes everything else work. It's paid once, and the benefit compounds every month after that.

Flexible ways to work with us

Not every engagement has to start with the full model

The ongoing advisory partnership is the heart of what we do — and where the real value builds over time. But it's not the only way to work with us. If you're not ready for the full model, or you have one specific challenge you want help with, we can start smaller.

We can take on a single project or a focused piece of work — setting up part of your business, fixing an area that isn't working, or preparing for a big decision — with a clear start and finish. No monthly commitment required.

Website build or refresh

A professional website that represents your business well and works hard for you — built and managed by us.

POS system review and cleanup

Getting your point-of-sale data organised, accurate and working properly so you can trust the numbers it gives you.

Financial data organisation

Bringing order to your financial records so your Business Hub — and your advisors — can give you the most accurate guidance possible.

Other examples of focused work we take on

Setting up or fixing a specific part of your business — finance, operations, marketing, systems. A business plan or strategy piece. Preparing for a sale, expansion, or major decision. A one-off deep-dive into a problem that's been nagging at you.

Flexible work is scoped and quoted individually, so you always know the cost before we begin — no surprises, no obligations.

Common questions

Pricing FAQ

Do I have to commit to a long-term contract?
We ask for a minimum three-month commitment — because that's genuinely the minimum time needed to build the relationship, get the Business Hub working well, and start seeing real results. After three months, we move to a rolling monthly arrangement with no lock-in.
Can I change tiers if my business grows?
Absolutely. As your business grows, we simply move you to the appropriate tier. We'll discuss the change together and there's no penalty for moving up.
Are all prices GST exclusive?
Yes — all prices shown are in NZD and exclude GST. GST at 15% is added to all invoices. As a GST-registered business you may be able to claim this back — we recommend checking with your accountant.
What if I'm not sure which tier I'm in?
Don't worry — we'll work it out together in your free discovery session. There's no pressure to self-select before we've had a chance to understand your business properly.
How does billing work?
The setup fee is invoiced once at the start of your engagement. The monthly retainer is invoiced at the beginning of each month, with a minimum three-month commitment from the start date. After the initial three months, billing continues monthly with no further lock-in. Flexible project work is invoiced separately once the scope is agreed and completed.
