#310 // 11 Ways To Derail + Stunt Your Business Compounding (Part Two) with Greg Crowe
Business compounding is amazing. There really is no mistaking that the incremental effect of consistently closing the week, closing the month, doing the right thing, having the hard conversations, front costing, back costing, quoting on time etc etc, can land you in a really healthy spot in 15 years. If we start at $500k revenue and budget in conservative market averages (15% organic revenue growth, a market wage, business net profit of 20%) over 15 years your business will be doing an annual revenue of $3.5m and you would have accumulated nearly $7m dollars in personal + business profit. If we start at $1.5m revenue and budget in conservative market averages (10% organic revenue growth, a market wage, business net profit of 20%) over 15 years your business will be doing an annual revenue of $5.6m and you would have accumulated nearly $11.5m dollars in personal + business profit. If we start at $5m revenue and budget in conservative market averages (10% organic revenue growth, a market wage, business net profit of 20%) over 15 years your business will be doing an annual revenue of $19m and you would have accumulated nearly $34m dollars in personal + business profit. Sometimes slow + steady really does win the race. So what do you do from here? It’s time to embrace your trade god ordained destiny of making money, building wealth + being kind. Get after it!

#303 // The Lounge “End of Financial Year Planning & Tax Strategies” with Angela Lee
Today Cam McCracken sits down with Angela Lee from Codification Accounting + Business Advisory to discuss EOFY tax planning, strategies + new changes and updates. I remember the first time I met Angela we had dinner together at Bangalow Pub and discussed the possibility of working together. My initial thoughts were wow she is super switched on + trustrworthy and I immediately felt super comfortable about working together and involving her really closely in our business and around our members (Cam and I work with her personally now which probably says it all tbh). At Sparky Coach we have been working closely with Angela for coming up to 4 years now and we feel very lucky to have her on our team. Safe to say she is an absolute weapon and runs an absolute weapon team. So yes educate yourselves for sure and yes you should read books on tax planning, but pls also remember you need to employ a weapon accountant too (and pay them what they are worth). We will be running a 2 hour open q+a with Angela this Friday as a part of our paid program. If you are desperate to join this pls just reach out to me via online sorcery (greg@sparky.coach) or slide into the Sparky Coach insta DM’s. Pls treat this pod like generic free advice and only apply anything if you have paid someone to look over your financial position + current set ups and so on.
