Services服务范围

A coordinated set of advisory engagements, one consistent way of working. 一套协调的顾问服务体系，一贯的工作方式。

Most clients begin with a Business Health Check; from there we shape what comes next together — a fixed-fee project, a monthly retainer, or a single advisory conversation. 大多数客户从财务健康检查开始；之后共同确定下一步——固定费用项目、月度合同，或单次咨询。

// Business Health Check// 财务健康检查

A structured read on the business — before the next big decision.

在下一个重大决策前，对企业进行系统性审视。

A focused two-week diagnostic across the four dimensions that determine the health of any owner-operated business. Most owners identify 2–4 margin or cash improvements that recover the engagement fee within a single quarter. 针对决定任何业主经营型企业健康状况的四个维度，进行为期两周的深度诊断。大多数业主能在单一季度内识别出2至4项利润或现金改进，足以弥补服务费用。

Find the margin you're leaving on the table.

A disciplined four-to-six-week review of where margin is leaking, how your pricing positions the business against competitors, and what a recalibrated pricing model would mean for your bottom line. 为期四至六周的系统性审查——分析利润流失的根源，评估定价在竞争中的定位，以及重新校准定价模型对净利润的影响。

FAQ常见问题

Frequently asked questions.常见问题解答。

If yours isn't listed, please raise it on the call — we will answer it straight, even where the honest answer is "we are not the right fit for that." 如果您的问题未在列表中，请在通话时提出——我们会直接回答，即使诚实的答案是"我们可能不适合这个需求"。

Most engagements are fixed-fee, scoped from a complimentary 30-minute call. Virtual CFO and Board Reporting run on monthly retainer; Strategic Advisory is hourly. The fee is agreed in writing before any work commences. 大多数项目采用固定收费，费用在免费30分钟通话后确定。虚拟CFO和董事会报告采用月度合同；战略咨询按小时收费。费用在工作开始前以书面形式确认。

No — the practice sits one layer above day-to-day accounting. Your bookkeeper handles transactions, your accountant handles tax. We help you read what those systems produce and make the strategic decisions that sit on top. 不是。我们的服务处于日常会计之上的层次。记账员处理交易，会计师处理税务。我们帮您解读数据，做出更高层面的战略决策。

Yes. We work fluently in English, Mandarin (普通话) and Cantonese (粤语), and can deliver written work product in either or both languages — particularly useful for family businesses where the founder and the next generation work in different languages. 可以。我们能流利地以英语、普通话和粤语工作，可用任一语言或两种语言提交书面成果——对于创始人和下一代使用不同语言的家族企业尤为有用。

No — most engagements are conducted remotely with one or two on-site visits where helpful. We currently serve clients across Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and regional Victoria. 不需要。大多数项目远程进行，必要时安排一至两次现场拜访。我们为悉尼、布里斯班、珀斯及维多利亚州各地客户提供服务。

A complimentary call typically fits within the week. Once a scope is agreed, most engagements commence within seven to ten days. The active client list is intentionally held small so every engagement remains principal-led. 免费通话通常在一周内安排。范围确认后，大多数项目在七至十天内启动。我们有意控制客户数量，确保每个项目都由负责人亲自主导。
