The “do it once, do it right” foundation for new businesses.
Building the Structure While You Focus on the Vision
We understand how overwhelming it feels when setting up a new business. Our services not only removes guesswork and helps you get started quickly but also ensures that it is scalable when you are ready.
Straight answers. No runaround.
Not at all. A big chunk of our clients are businesses that have been operating for a year or two and realise their setup isn't right — wrong structure, messy books, no proper systems. It's actually cheaper to fix it now than to let it compound. If you've got an ABN but feel like you're winging it, this is still for you.
Yes — and we work alongside yours. We handle the business structure thinking, setup coordination, systems, and brand basics. Your accountant handles tax registration and compliance. We brief them on what we've set up so everyone's aligned. If you don't have an accountant yet, we can point you in the right direction.
Typically four weeks from start to finish. We run it as a focused sprint so you're not dragging it out over months. By the end you have your structure in place, books set up, brand basics done, and a 90-day plan in your hand. You stay focused on bringing in work — we handle the setup.
Yes. Having an ABN doesn't mean everything is set up correctly — most sole traders and early-stage businesses have gaps in their structure, accounting setup, or systems. We'll do a quick review and focus on what's missing or needs fixing, rather than starting from scratch unnecessarily.
The Essentials ($1,800) covers the core compliance and accounting setup — right for someone who just needs the basics done properly. The Launchpad ($2,500) adds professional presence: virtual office address, social handles, CRM, and 90 days of support. The Full Suite ($4,500) is for founders who want to build something scalable from day one — full setup, six months of advisory, and hands-on implementation throughout.
It's a real commercial address at our Herston office — you can use it on your ASIC registration, ATO correspondence, website, and marketing materials. We handle mail management and client meet-and-greet if needed. It gives you a professional business presence without the cost of a physical office, which matters when you're building trust with early clients.
Not much. Come to the first call with a rough idea of what you want to build and how you plan to run it. We'll take it from there — ask the right questions, map out what's needed, and tell you exactly what we'll handle versus what needs your input. We keep it simple so you can focus on the work.
