BUSINESS ADVICE

We don’t just see a bunch of numbers when we work through your records. We see potential to grow. If you want practical solutions to business problems, or even full business coaching, we make it happen. There are a lot of ways to make your business run smoother and save you time and money. Or, if you’re looking to step away from the business, then we work with you to get the best possible result.

What We Do

Starting up​

If you’re starting or buying a business, there’s a lot to do. It’s new and exciting, but you need to make the right decisions. Set up systems. Minimise your risk. Get help with due diligence. Get running smoothly. We’ve helped a large number of business get off the ground and have some incredible success stories.

Growing your business

Nobody knows your business better than you. But it can help to have another perspective – which is where we come in. We’ll help by identifying new opportunities for your business and showing you how to take advantage of them.

Exit strategy

Looking to retire but don’t feel ready to hand over the reins yet? We can help with succession planning, so that your business will be in safe hands when you leave. Alternatively, we can help maximise the value of it if you’d prefer to sell it on. Our personal touch means that you can retire or move on to your next adventure without worry.

Expert business advice

Drawing on our expertise and resources, we work to understand your business and identify any underperforming areas. We’ve helped countless clients refine their sales systems and processes so that they could have clarity when it came to decision-making and handling more work going forward.

“I can be confident that they’ll take care of all my IRD paperwork without being too ‘creative.’ They do things by the book – everything is black and white – which, I think, is the right way to approach it.”

Christine, Onehunga Jewellers

Christine Inglis

“I would certainly recommend Humphries Associates because they’re very knowledgeable and helpful; you can feel safe with them. It doesn’t matter that they’re located in Onehunga, because they become a part of your business, and Angela has always been very helpful and quick to give me answers when I need them.”
