Know your numbers: are you heading towards closure also?

Labour costs are a substantial part of running a salon, accounting for more than half of your revenue. Ensuring these costs are controlled and aligned with your business goals is crucial to avoid financial strain and potential closure.

No growth means higher competition

Despite almost no growth in the past five years, salons continue to face stiff competition. With growth stagnating, businesses must differentiate themselves and focus on operational efficiency to stay competitive and thrive.

HOW WE HELP

Empowering NDIS Providers to Overcome Financial Hurdles.

Your pains:

Audit stress & SCHADS award

Misinterpreting the SCHADS Award and poor audit preparation result in payroll errors, compliance penalties, and funding delays.

Financial correspondence nightmare

Managing supplier queries, chasing payments from NDIS coordinators, and handling payroll disputes with employees consumes valuable time and energy.

Cash flow instability

Delayed invoices, irregular payments, and lack of clear financial forecasting make financial sustainability difficult.

Operational inefficiencies

Ineffective rostering, outdated scheduling systems, and poor tech integration drive up costs and workload.

Our fixes:

Compliance and audit ready

We ensure SCHADS-compliant payroll and maintain audit-ready records, minimising risks and ensuring funding security.

Managed financial admin

We manage all financial communications, including supplier invoices and payroll queries, to save your time and reduce stress.

Cash flow clarity and support

We deliver clear reports, forecast costs, and help you set aside funds for BAS, super payments, and operational expenses, ensuring compliance and financial stability.
