How Healthy is YOUR business?


Do you own your business?


Of course you do! Or ....... does your business own you?


Do you find that working in your business requires less hours than when you worked for a boss?

Are you getting a fair return for your efforts and the sacrifices you make in your life?

Do you have a balanced life between work, family, sports, mental development, and social activities?

Will your business thrive and grow if you decide to take an extended holiday? Or any holiday? Or if you are off sick?


If you have answered no to any of these questions, you must take up my offer of a free business health check. It will take only about 20 minutes of your time and will provide you with a three page written, colour and charted report on the health of your business.

First Message for 2010 Folks!

Well, folks, it's almost 0300 on Jan 1 2010 and I am at my keyboard hoping you all feel pretty good this morning.

No hangovers? No woolly mouths? No crumpled suits from crashing where you fell last night?

HA! Who am I Kidding? This is sleep or still party time for all but the oddballs of us!

Think about "Get Rich Quick" schemes, folks. How many links have you followed that are just scams? How many ACTUALLY WORK?

They are cons and tricks and deceptive behaviours!

These are my targets in January 2010! Watch this space! Now, sleep and awaken bright and refreshed.

Cheers - Roger

2010 and Where From Here?

Well the 2009 year is almost over and we move into the "teens" of this century. The retail sector has not performed up to Christmas as well as expected and down on last year.

To be expected with no "stimulus package" this time around. Yes, it looks as though people did spend it last year.

Trouble is, it was NOT spent on sustainable economic growth! How many have suffered the annoyance of call centres phoning us and asking about our "insulation"?

This is short term economic activity. Mr Rudd and his friends would have been better to offer TARGETED tax relief to businesses investing in genuine growth and employment projects. This would have created sustainable economic activity that would perpetuate itself into years ahead. The initial impact on the retail sector would have been less evident but in reality, shouldn't the growth at retail be the effect of growth in sound industrial and economic infrastructure (more jobs, higher pay being the result, therefore stimulating retail spending) instead of a “quick fix” that would expire leaving us saddled with interminable debt?

Instead we have the legacy of higher debt that we will be paying off for generations to come through higher interest rates and YES, HIGHER TAXES!

So what do you do as a small to medium business owner? There are a few alternatives but the precursor to them all is PLANNING.

At Harmonic Business Design, we can assist you with a high value add component (I won't work with you unless it can add real sustainable value to YOUR business).

Our services include:
  • Assessment of current situation and planning the way forward (you say "I already know that" but I'll bet you really don't)
  • Selling your business either locally or overseas. Overseas sales of strong sound businesses will generally result in a significant selling price premium compared to the local market
  • Implementing the systems and structures that make YOUR business strong and sound to add value and increase cash flow
Call us now on 0434-293 815 or (07)3040 2367

Cheers and happy New Year
