Learn More about Financial Planning

What is financial planning?

Financial planning is an essential component of running a profitable business. When developing a financial plan, we can assess your current finances, financial strategies, and overall goals to see if they are attainable. It is critical to have a comprehensive understanding of your business model and/or personal financial situation. We can take action to promote long-term, medium-term, and short-term growth in this manner.

Understanding your financial situation

It is critical to determine the amount of capital available for any financial plan. To do so, we must take into account all of your financial information, including:

  • Income
  • Expenses
  • Cash flow
  • Savings
  • Employee and government benefits
  • Assets
  • Taxes
  • Liquidity
  • Liabilities
  • Estate plans

Setting your objectives

Once we have determined your financial situation, we must assist you in setting achievable goals for your business. To determine your definition of success, we must first answer a few questions, such as:

  • What is your preferred time frame for your goals? For example, short-term or long-term?
  • What is your risk tolerance?

We can determine whether your goals are realistic once we’ve determined what they are.

Developing a financial strategy

Choosing which business objectives to pursue is one thing; achieving them is another. As a result, we will assist you in determining whether your current course of action is adequate to achieve your financial goals. If your current objectives are unattainable, we will work with you to develop more attainable targets for your business. Once your goals have been established, we can begin to make recommendations that we believe will help your company achieve its goals. You are free to make an informed decision about whether our options are a good fit for you after receiving these recommendations.

Implementing your financial strategy

You will begin implementation once you have agreed to proceed with your financial plan. This can be difficult at first because potential plans may deviate from practices you are used to; however, agreed financial plans should be followed through on in order to have the best chance of success.

Progress tracking

Financial planning is used to ensure that your company is on the right path and on track to meet its goals. We will gain a better understanding of how your business is progressing as time goes on, and we will be able to make changes to your plan as needed. This could be due to changes in your personal life or changes necessitated by evidence in your results.

Financial Planning FAQs

What are the 7 financial planning steps?
There are several approaches to dealing with a financial plan, but we prefer to assess and implement them in seven stages. These are as follows:
  1. Assessing your financial situation
  2. Identify what you would like your goals to be
  3. Identifying whether your current course of action is efficient
  4. Developing financial recommendations
  5. Delivering financial recommendations
  6. Putting recommendations in place
  7. Monitoring progress
What is the aim of financial planning?
The overarching goal of financial planning is to ensure that you have enough capital to accomplish your goals. If this is not the case, we can help you reassess your goals and develop a long-term strategy to help you meet your initial objectives in the future.
What financial goals should I set for myself?

Total Business Partners can help you achieve your business goals. However, in order to achieve our objectives, we must first define them. To determine which goals you want to achieve, many different questions must be asked.

We may take into account your accomplishment timeline, such as where you want to be in 5, 10, or 20 years. What is your risk tolerance level? Are you willing to proceed with caution? There are many ways to ensure that your goals are met, and Total Business Partners can help you decide which ones to pursue.

Is there ongoing financial monitoring?

Yes, without a doubt! We will always stay on top of your finances and ensure that your plan is on track with our financial planning services. Our service includes ongoing monitoring and updating of your financial plan.

If we believe that changes are needed to ensure the long-term success of your financial model, we will look into how to make them. Financial models can be adjusted over time to account for changing economic conditions and personal circumstances. Total Business Partners will be there for you every step of the way.

What are the 3 basic tax planning strategies?

There are numerous methods for planning your taxes; however, the three most common are:

  • Reducing your income
  • Taking advantage of tax credits
  • Increasing tax deductions

These three tax planning pillars are critical to making the most of your money. When it comes to tax planning, for example, adjusted gross income is arguably more important than gross income. AGI (adjusted gross income) is what remains after deductions such as student loan repayment or superannuation contributions. This figure can also be reduced by making financial decisions such as saving for retirement.
