SUMMARY:M.I.L.L.I.O.N.S. : 8 Pillars of Focus for Every Business
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nBeing a business owner feels like jumping off a cliff and building a parachute on your way down.\nIf you’re a business owner\, you know exactly how that feels. It’s exhausting; it’s overwhelming; and often you’re not sure which fire to put out next.\nAnd how many times have you heard: “You need to work ON the business\, not IN the business”?\nBut seriously\, what does that actually mean? \nTo break it down\, our speaker is Krish Ravipati of Accounts Advantage who will be sharing the 8 Business Essentials Every Business Owner Needs to Work ON the Business. \nThis session is based on Krish’s own strategy\, M.I.L.L.I.O.N.S\, a framework he’s applied not just to his clients\, but also across his own group of businesses with a combined turnover of over $10 million annually. \nA bit about Krish: He’s a CPA and the Manage Director of Accounts Advantage\, a 10-member Bookkeeping and CFO Advisory firm\, and Dunk Agency\, a digital marketing firm with 8 team members specialising in paid social media advertising. He also sits on the board of 5 other million-dollar businesses. \nAs a Board Member\, Krish’s role is to run monthly Board Meetings\, bring Managing Directors into the room\, and provide both a high-level strategic view as well as practical insights into day-to-day operations. \nIf you’re looking for someone who walks the walk\, understands the real challenges of running a business\, and is qualified to speak on business strategy\, this is a session not to miss. \nThis talk will be perfect for business owners preparing for the new financial year\, especially those who haven’t yet put these foundational pillars in place \nRegister today as seats are limited! \n

SUMMARY:Cashflow and Tax Implications
DESCRIPTION:Logan Office of Economic Development (LOED) has partnered with Griffith University Tax Clinic and Small Business Financial Counselling Service to present you with this workshop. \nCommencing a business is difficult with many decisions required to be made. One of the decisions that sometimes is overlooked is the ‘tax’ implications of running a business. Tax is an important consideration as ignoring it can result in penalties and interest charges\, but it can also influence the cash flow of the business. This series of workshops will provide an overview of business cash flow and how tax can influence it. \nAbout the workshop:\nThis workshop will consider how the various types of taxes (particularly income tax and GST) can influence a business’s cash flow\, not only in terms of profit margin but also when payments are due. The workshop will also look at: \n\nCash flow concept\nHow tax (income tax\, GST and superannuation) can influence cash flow\, and\nHow hiring workers influence cash flow and tax obligations.\n\nAbout the presenter:\nBrett Freudenberg\nBrett Freudenberg is a Professor – Taxation at Griffith University (Australia). \nBrett is known for his research expertise in the tax law and policy issues facing private enterprises\, as evidenced by his Fulbright Scholarship (2006) and over 90 refereed publications in leading Australian and international journals. \nBrett is passionate about education being a transformative process\, and his effectiveness as a teacher has been recognised through five national awards (including the award of two Australian Learning and Teaching Council citations: 2008 & 2011). \nDr Melissa Belle\nDr Melissa Belle Isle is a lecturer in taxation law.
