Statutory: Are you aware (and on top of) all of the obligations you have to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC), State Revenue Office (SRO), Land Titles Office, WorkCover Authority, your superannuation provider and your bank? This is a major stumbling block where businesses in building and property development can unwittingly subject themselves to fines and liability. In Chapter 3, I’ll cover the main obligations you need to be aware of as an ambitious business owner. 4. Systems: If you are trying to manage everything by yourself on an ad hoc basis, not only is this inefficient, but you run the risk of not meeting your statutory obligations. In this step I’ll share the main money management systems your business will need to stay on top of your obligations, while moving towards your strategic goals. 5. Support: As an ambitious business owner, you probably try to do it all. After all, it’s your business – you want to make sure everything’s running as it should be. The problem is that this isn’t sustainable – you can’t be all things to all people, and you can’t do everything at the high standards you’d like. This is why support is essential. In Chapter 5 I’ll teach you how to find the right support team to help you implement the first four steps of the framework, while pushing your business on to bigger and better things. In these five steps, you will find all the tools you need to grow a financially rewarding, tax-efficient, lifestyle business.
