More Than Just Tax...
Ask about Our:
1. Upfront fixed fee engagements
We have a policy of upfront pricing on as much of our work as possible. This provides you with certainty of cost, clarity of the scope, absence of surprises and control of the process resting with you.
2. One hour Complimentary Client Review
These no obligation meetings provide you with the opportunity to "shoot the breeze" with your Progression Group Accountant. This not only allows us to gain a greater appreciation of your current position, but also identify possible enhancements or solutions to any business issues you currently face.
*Existing business clients only.
3. Formal Board Advisory Service
Let Progression Group drive corporate governance within your business. Clients who utilise this service enjoy structured meetings, real solutions, easy to understand reports and formalised minutes (with follow up action). This guarantees value at each meeting. Whether it is monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly, our Board Advisory Services don't just focus on business performance, but include over 40 critical business items required to be reviewed and monitored for guaranteed annual success.
4. Individually tailored tax planning
solutions
If we cannot save you at least four times the cost of this service, then you won't have to pay for it. Assessing the vast opportunities prior to the conclusion of each financial year ensures our clients are not only confident that their taxation debt is minimised, but are also well aware 12 months in advance what any likely liability will be.
5. In-house SMSF Specialists
We have our own Self Managed Superannuation Fund experts that can explain the options available to you in respect to investing through Superannuation. Many clients are now taking advantage of borrowing and acquiring property through Superannuation to assist in meeting their retirement objectives.
6. Private Client Portal
This is where our clients can log into their own personalised secure area to access documents, files, accounting data, and financial reports.
The secure portal will enable Progression Group to send our clients documents electronically including annual Financial Statements and Income Tax Returns. These documents can then be electronically signed, alleviating the need to print out and post documents back to us for lodgement.
Your documents will then be stored in the portal for future access where required.
Our secure client portal also allows our clients to upload large data files or documents that would generally be too large to e-mail.
