We are certified LivePlan Advisors which means we have completed the necessary qualifications to achieve the certification, making us experts in the system that can literally positively change your business outcomes.

Our philosophy of helping small business owners succeed by freeing them from complicated spreadsheets and intimidating financial systems. With innovative systems and advisory services, businesshelp.gg gives businesses the confidence to focus on their passions, while still knowing the financial health of their business.

Businesshelp.gg approach integrates cloud-based accounting software  QBO and Xero with business planning and financial tracking software LivePlan. These cloud-based tools, coupled with our expertise in business growth and financial management, gives their small business clients an advantage. Research from Cranfield University’s School of Management shows that small businesses who actively plan, track against that plan, and adjust their plan based on market need, grow 30% faster. Planning and tracking is what separates small businesses who are surviving from those who are thriving.

LivePlan gives our small business owners the ability to understand their financial strengths and where they need to adjust their assumptions. LivePlan’s integration with leading cloud based financial systems helps us, play the larger role of a business advisor by allowing our clients to easily access key financial data wherever they need it, in a format that’s easy to understand.

 

“Accounting data alone is not sufficient enough to run a business,” said Sabrina Parsons, CEO of Palo Alto Software. “Business owners must also track how those actual numbers compare to their budget and forecast and their historical performance. LivePlan gives small business owners access to this information – in an easy to view format – without having to ask their bookkeeper or accountant to run multiple reports. With this, accountants are becoming strategic advisors, and helping small businesses in areas beyond taxes, bookkeeping, and audits.”

About LivePlan

LivePlan works for any type of business, at any stage in its development. Take our tour below to see how LivePlan's guided, step–by–step process takes the stress out of starting your business.

The first thing you'll do in LivePlan is set up your business.

Getting started in LivePlan is easy. We'll ask for a few, simple details about your business. Select a goal and LivePlan will recommend a starting point to position you for success.

After you're done setting up your business, you can get started on your business strategy.

The LivePlan Pitch is a one–page summary of your business that defines your strategy. It's a fast, simple, and more effective way to document your business idea. LivePlan lets you publish your pitch on the web and export to PowerPoint so you can share it on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, or even with old fashioned email.

When you're done creating your pitch, you can move on to creating your full business plan.

LivePlan breaks the business planning process down into simple steps with instructions and examples. Your plan starts with the traditional structure of chapters and sections, but it's fully customizable. Add or remove chapters and sections as you see fit.

The last part of building your plan is creating a budget and forecast. Don't worry—LivePlan makes it easy.

No math or complex spreadsheets needed. Enter the sales you think you can make along with your anticipated expenses, and LivePlan automatically creates your financial statements. If you're not sure what number to put in, make an educated guess and LivePlan will help you see if your plan is reasonable.

Check your numbers against the competition to see how they stack up.

With Benchmarks, you can use real data from businesses across the country to see your plan is realistic. Compare by region and size to get the most accurate data possible. LivePlan helps you create budgets and forecasts that make sense.

Keep your business growing and healthy with the LivePlan Dashboard.

Connect LivePlan to QuickBooks, Xero, or enter your accounting info manually to track your progress against your plan. See instantly, if you're meeting your sales goals and staying on budget. It's the best way to grow your business and keep it healthy.

Alan Chapman    

My experience of business is pretty extensive. Lots of corporate and finance and a fairly long stint with the civil service whilst running my own businesses on the side. The result of this?  I get it.

The reason why we started this venture is simply because we want to support and help businesses. We know how hard it can be to get up and running but we also understand how your business can get stuck in a rut, not making enough profit or not seeing enough growth. Or maybe you are running around trying to stay on top of everything – never a moment for yourself and not enough time for your family.

My goal is to help business owners spend less time working intheir business and more time working on their business. In the end, you’ll be spending less time working yet be making more money. I’d also like to help you put the FUN back in your business and your personal life.

I have a Masters in Business Administration, Lean Six Sigma trained and numerous qualifications in Project and Programme Management. Lots of certifications in system implementation and a strong desire to help you!

If you are ready to move your business to the next level, contact me today. Find out how you can change the way you do business to achieve the results you deserve!
