Business Advice

 

When we started RightWay in 2011, we figured that to really support New Zealand businesses, we had to go beyond accounting. So, we formed our Business Partner team who partner with our clients on an advisory level.

Our Business Partner team is made up of experienced business owners, so they understand the trials and tribulations of running a business because they’ve been there too! Our advisors provide a great sounding board for your ideas and offer impartial, external advice and support on-call.

Backed up by our extremely knowledgable, nationwide team of, Accountants, Bookkeepers, Agribusiness and Payroll specialists. Our Business Partners have a wealth of knowledge to assist you in building your business to be everything you want it to be!

We understand that the day-to-day tasks of running a business, delivering for your clients, and supporting your team can cause strategic planning to slip. By working with a RightWay Business Partner, you’ll ensure your business is set up for success this month, and in the years to come.

At RightWay, our clients never go it alone.

Scaling a business the right way

Many highly ambitious business owners and entrepreneurs have dreams of taking their businesses to the big time. But scaling a business is so much more than adding headcount or indeed customers.

Improving cash flow in a business

Cash flow is what drives your business and keeps you awake (or preferably, asleep!) at night. Put simply, cash flow is the lifeblood of your business.

Traits of a successful business owner

With more than half a million small business owners in New Zealand, there’s a breadth of backgrounds, cultures and approaches that make up our community. But while small businesses really do take all sorts,  we’ve been able to observe the common traits that all successful owners appear to have. In this article, we’ll cover what some of these are. The good news? All of these traits can be worked on and developed with a bit of focus and the right support.

Do you know how your business actually runs?

Okay, it may sound like a silly question. Of course you know your business! Who’s closer to your day to day operations than you? And that’s fair enough. But when small business owners are doing everything, there’s going to be elements of the business that get more attention than others. It’s only reasonable that providing your service to your customers is priority number one. Even well-established small businesses turning over reasonable revenue can lose sight of the detail around the financials.

Lack of planning makes business success harder to achieve

Ever competed in a race where you weren’t told where the finish line was? Tried your hand at baking without a recipe book? How about leaving for holiday without packing your bags? If these all sound ridiculous to you, then let us draw the comparison with a business that doesn’t make plans.

Reviewing your business is vital for success

It is very normal for business owners to be entrenched in the daily goings on of their businesses. With varying to do lists and high priority tasks requiring their daily attention, it can be hard to take the time to stop and look at the big picture. And that’s just the business part, let alone our busy, and somewhat chaotic, personal lives.

However, it is vital as a business owner or business manager to periodically pull your head out of the trenches and take the time to sit back and review your business as a whole, to ensure you are on track to success.
