ADVANTAGES OF YOUR MATURITY
If you're approaching your 40s, and without the personal experience of overcoming various turbulent life experiences, Sunrise Profit College can provide you with the resources you'll need to get out there amongst the SME community and develop a full time coaching business.
If you're older, with a general understanding of business, our role will be support your knowledge base. Your career experience, your skill set, and the tools available from Sunrise Profit College will all contribute to your success with this profitable hobby as a Business Coach.
THERE CERTAINLY IS. The demand from the SME sector is huge, and constantly increasing.
Unlike any previous era, today the market, business, and personal circumstances are forcing every owner of a SME to make continuous and critical decisions about the future direction of their business.
Normally, your clients will have recognised the need for growth (i.e. more sales, more employees or more resources) but you will find others who seek to stabilise their financial position rather than grow. But invariable any change requires some form of diversification or development of new revenue streams.
Which is where you come in, as most SME business owners don't have the vision or knowlegde to do things differently, and never had have the opportunity to discuss their options with an impartial observer.
And every SME right now - it could be a call centre or farm or tourist operator or sheet metal fabricator or home builder or chocalatier or real estate agent or mining engineer or web design firm or gym or post office or dye importer or printer or phone app creation firm or wellness centre or bike shop or transport group or training provider .... (you'll know many more) - everyone of them is facing unprecedented change, and at an ever increasing pace. They need a lifesaver - and that can be YOU!
If you have some background in business, and would enjoy expressing an opinion based on analysis and understanding, this could well be a very enjoyable and profitable hobby for you.
SMEs need counsel, contacts and strategies. Which is precisely what you offer.
PHILOSOPHY
We are like a major metropolitan train station - a conduit to the destination(s) where clients want to go.
Clients come to us for "destinations" i.e. new concepts, ideas and strategies that will prevent scarcity in the future and because we can introduce them to specialist advisors and products - whilst all the while maintaining a relationship to ensure that they constantly are focused on their five year goals.
While we have substantial expertise in the fields of marketing, finance and planning, in some disciplines e.g. debt collection, accountancy, and commercial law, clients need specialist support.

At some time or another, some of your client's staff will have said amongst themselves "there must be more to Life than this!" or joke that "they can't sack us – slaves have to be sold". Human nature, being what it is, is conducive to having systemic problems emerge in most organisations.

Gavin Waring CEO of Fresh Numbers pulls no punches. Even before he meets with you his opinion is going to be "Your accounting system probably sucks."
As the creator of Your Business Angels - a business created to tough it out and turn around business that find themselves in trouble - Gavin and his team can smell trouble a long way off and get action happening so that a business doesn't get hit by a financial tsunami.
"It is all too common for your bookkeeper to enter everything and the accountant completes BAS and the annual tax returns – so that all your accounting system does is help the government grab as much money from you as it possibly can," he says.
"There is generally no real tax planning, no real assistance for your business, rather just simple compliance which means that your accounting system is nothing but an open mouthed system funnel to send your money to Canberra.
"I have a different opinion. I believe that the accounting system should tell the owner stories about the business, every minute of every day so that the real key data (not just the result from endless debits and credits) helps navigate the business through tough times, create a cash plan to take an opportunity or know when it's time for the business to cough up money for wealth creation instead of sending it to Canberra", says Gavin.
Getting in front of Gavin Waring or any of his seniors at Fresh Numbers is of true value to any business.
The E Team doesn't build its own solutions nor do any web programming.
Nor is the E Team influenced by sales commissions because any focus on sales commissions flies in the face of their 'best solution for the customer requirement' policy.
That puts the E Team in the unique position of being able to independently identify which solution is the best for any specific business need.
In that way your SME clients can be assured that any solution is assembled with their interests in mind and not those of the respective provider.
The E Team can help provide direction and guidance with all aspects of your online presence and offers a free half hour online or on phone consulting session to assist you - or provide an informed second opinion - on your online presence.
Bernard Kelly first realised the need for different thinking about wealth creation when he was in his 40s "because life does get in the way all too often".
He was then working in the non-profit sector, and as the various chief executives that he knew retired, he would frequently express his surprise about how little even chief executives had tucked aside for retirement.
Then after perhaps two years of such comments to his wife, he realised that virtually everybody was in the same boat - including himself.
Ownership of a SME is his number one recommendation for wealth creation, as the cash flow can provide for a very comfortable lifestyle - in the good years.
However his view is that a proprietor should always anticipate the down years, and develop a program of property investing for long term financial security, while constantly maintaining an updated strategy of succession planning and/or preparation for the sale of the business - to ensure that the family's future is assured.
And you would probably like to know Bernard's views on superannuation - it's just a taxation strategy, he says. "It's not inflation protected and doesn't pay a pension from income, and consequently consumes the capital. Avoid it if you can."
Bernard is happy to review your clients' approach to wealth creation.
