In the next snippet from Damian's chat with Naked at the Top, he shares a simple habit that can make a real difference to your savings.

Set aside a few hundred dollars each week and leave it alone. It doesn't sound like much at the time, but it adds up quickly. $200 a week, for example, is over $10,000 by the end of the year.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗵.

Damian suggests keeping that money in a separate account and hiding it from your everyday banking view. If you can't see it, you're far less likely to spend it.

It's not about willpower, it's about building a habit that does the work for you.

Our next podcast snippet from Naked at the Top we hear from Amy Holdsworth who actually implemented Damian’s advice about setting $200 a week aside as savings.

When Aleyx asked our founder and Head of BD, Damian, what business owners say about their numbers that makes him roll his eyes, this was his answer. It's something we come across regularly in our work with SMEs.

𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘩 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺'𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘸𝘰 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴. For every dollar a business earns, the owner doesn't get to pocket that whole dollar. Overheads, tax and other obligations all take their share first. When owners don't take the time to understand how the two work together, a healthy profit figure can tell a very different story to the bank balance.

Running a business means there is always something competing for your attention.

For many business owners, 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 seem to come up again and again:
𝟭- 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀
𝟮- 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀.

Costs are changing, margins need watching and cash flow needs to be understood. At the same time, there’s bookkeeping, payroll, compliance, reporting and all the financial admin that keeps the business moving.

It all needs to be done. But 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗯𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂?

Outsourcing your bookkeeping and financial management isn’t about stepping away from your numbers. It’s about having the right support around you so you can understand them more clearly, see what’s coming and make better-informed decisions.

Importantly, it can give you back some capacity to focus on your team, your clients and where the business is heading next.

𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝘀𝗸:
𝘋𝘰 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨?
𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘺 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵?

Sometimes, getting the right things off your plate can give you a much clearer view of what’s ahead.

You’re handing over the reins, trusting someone new with your numbers and letting them into the inner workings of your business.

We get it, we have done this before- many times over.

We’ve worked with hundreds of businesses and seen just about everything along the way.

-Messy books? We’ve seen them.
-Processes that aren’t working? Seen them too.
-Numbers that don’t quite add up? Our CFOs love turning those around!

From bookkeeping, payroll and super to cash flow, budgets and forecasting, helping businesses get their finances sorted is what we do.

So, if things behind the scenes aren’t quite as tidy as you’d like, don’t let that stop you from asking for help.
