01 / Cash control
Irregular income makes personal decisions harder. We set a pay rhythm, reserve targets, and cash-flow checkpoints that fit the way your business actually earns.
Your numbers need a system.
Map invoices, seasonal dips, tax dates, payroll, and planned capital spending before they collide.
Compare salary, distributions, and personal savings needs so the company can retain working cash.
Separate a business emergency reserve from your household reserve. Each has a different job.
02 / Retirement design
The right account depends on income, employees, contribution goals, and how much control you want over the plan. We compare the trade-offs in plain language.
| Plan | Often fits when | Planning focus |
|---|---|---|
| SEP IRA | Contributions should stay simple and follow eligible employee rules. | Contribution size, tax timing, and employee coverage. |
| Solo 401(k) | The owner has no eligible common-law employees and wants employee plus employer contributions. | Contribution structure, Roth options, and administration. |
| SIMPLE IRA | A small team needs an employer retirement benefit with lighter administration. | Matching rules, payroll flow, and staff participation. |
We look at contribution mechanics, tax treatment, employee requirements, and your expected income.
Business retirement savings should work alongside personal IRAs, Roth accounts, and other investments.
A plan that is hard to maintain gets ignored. We set clear review points and actions.
03 / Exit readiness
A future sale, family transfer, or employee buyout affects your company and your household. We connect business value with the personal income you will need after the handover.
The exit date is only one milestone.
Review how revenue, margins, customer concentration, debt, and owner dependence affect a possible valuation.
Compare family transfer, employee buyout, and external sale considerations with your tax and cash needs in view.
Set an income target, investment plan, insurance review, and transition timeline for life after ownership.
04 / Protection
Your business plan has to account for the people and risks that keep it running. We review coverage decisions in the context of cash flow, family needs, and asset protection.
Protection belongs in the numbers.
Review options for self-employed owners and benefit structures for a small team.
Consider how your household and company would manage if you could not work for a period.
Connect family protection, business obligations, and ownership transfer needs.
Identify where insurance, entity structure, and careful reserves may reduce exposure.
