Business Structure Consultant Who Doesn't Disappear After The Invoice
Your accountant set up your trust, then left you to figure out distributions, director loans, and whether that side project needs its own entity. Most structure consultants operate this way. We don't.
Why Business Structure Advisory Alone Fails
The trust sits empty. The holding company has no operating agreement.
Your accountant doesn't return calls about distributions because that wasn't in the scope. You're left with documents you don't fully understand and questions no one seems willing to answer.
The setup looked perfect on paper
Trust deed, company constitution, structure diagram - it all made sense in the meeting. Then your advisor vanished. Now you're staring at a director loan account and distributions you're not sure you can make.
Implementation is where advice dies
You were sold a structure. What you needed was someone to run it with you. Moving money between entities, documenting loans, answering ATO questions - that's where we come in.
Does your structure pass the test?
Five questions that expose what most business structure consultants missed.
If you can't answer these confidently, your structure might be costing you money. Most owners discover gaps they didn't know existed.
Do you know who the appointor of your trust is?
The person with legal power to remove and replace the trustee. If you had to check the deed, that's a problem. We've seen this cost clients $40K when nobody noticed for years.
When did you last review your company's share structure?
Revenue doubled, you brought on a partner, or you're planning an exit. If your share structure hasn't changed with your business, you're carrying unnecessary risk.
Can you explain your intercompany loan accounts in one sentence?
Most owners can't. Set up years ago and never touched since. Last month a client discovered $180K in Division 7A issues hiding in theirs.
Has anyone distributed from your discretionary trust in the last two years?
If not, you're paying to maintain a structure you're not using. Distributions should happen annually with clear tax planning. Otherwise, the structure isn't working.
Who updates your structure when your business changes?
You hired someone, sold an asset, moved interstate. Did your structure adjust? Or are you still running on a setup from three years ago?
Structure is where we start. Clarity is where we end up.
We fix your structure
Your discretionary trust hasn't been used in three years, or your trading entity is holding property it shouldn't. We rebuild it: clean entities, proper flow, tax position that makes sense.
You're asking bigger questions
A business partner, an acquisition, exit value in three years. These questions emerge naturally when someone already knows your structure, your cash flow, and your growth trajectory.
We're your commercial sounding board
You're not calling about distributions. You're calling about a second location, equity for a key hire, or a merger approach. Text or call - we respond within hours, not days.
What your business structure consultant should be doing on a Tuesday
You Slack us at 2pm, we answer by 4pm
No ticket system. No waiting for the next quarterly review. You're restructuring a division, considering a property purchase, or your accountant sent something confusing. We're already across your structure, so you get an answer in hours, not days.
We're on your board meeting invite
Not waiting for a summary after the fact. We sit in the room when you're making decisions about acquisitions, capital raises, or key hires. Your structure adjusts in real time because we're there when the decision happens.
Last month: restructure, payroll migration, and a bank meeting
One client needed their holding company restructured, payroll moved to a new entity, and someone to sit across from their bank to explain the changes. Three different problems, same week, same retainer.
Questions we hear often
Most structure reviews take two to three weeks. Implementation varies with what we find. A simple entity cleanup might take a month. Rebuilding a trust structure with asset transfers can take three months. We give you a timeline in the first week, not the last.
