Pillar 2 — Business Advisory & Consulting

The thinking partner your business actually needs

Ongoing advisory support or focused project work for business owners who want rigorous financial analysis and straight answers.

Ongoing support

Business Advisory Retainer

Monthly engagement for business owners who want a consistent advisory relationship. We meet regularly, work through your numbers, and we're available when decisions come up between meetings.

This isn't a bookkeeping service or a tax preparation service. It's a thinking partnership — focused on business performance, financial clarity, and the decisions that actually move things forward.

A signed engagement letter is required before work begins. Scope is defined per the engagement — scope creep provisions apply.

$750 – $1,800 / month

What's included

  • Monthly financial review and analysis
  • Performance vs. budget or targets
  • Cash flow monitoring and commentary
  • Decision support as issues arise
  • Written monthly summary and priorities
  • Email access between meetings
Project-based work

Advisory projects

Defined scope, flat fee, clear deliverable. Right for specific decisions or needs that don't require ongoing engagement.

Decision Support

Decision Support Project

Financial modelling and analysis to support a specific business decision — expansion, acquisition, pricing change, investment, or exit. Based on your assumptions; includes a written cover memo with advisory commentary.

$1,200 – $4,500
Structure Advisory

Business Structure Advisory

Framework analysis of your current or proposed business structure from a financial perspective. Clarifies the trade-offs. Implementation (legal, tax) referred to appropriate professionals.

$800 – $1,800
Internal Controls

Internal Controls Review

Observation-based review of your internal financial processes and controls. Delivered as advisory recommendations — not an audit, not assurance. Practical improvements for a small or growing business.

$1,200 – $3,000
KPI Design

KPI & Reporting Design

Identify the financial and operational metrics that actually matter for your business. Design a reporting framework you'll actually use — and understand what you're looking at.

$1,000 – $2,500
All project work is delivered as advisory recommendations based on client-provided information and does not constitute assurance. Business structure advisory provides a financial framework only — specific implementation requires a lawyer and a PAF-registered accountant.
