Lucentum.
A professional practice of Chartered Accountants that embraces new ideas and thinking, maximising the value brought to owner managed and family businesses.
What we do?
We provide peace of mind and proactive input and advice to owner managed and family businesses. This is delivered by a team of dedicated individuals who will take a genuine interest in you and your business and who can respond to your needs and requirements swiftly and in plain English.
How can we help your business?
We aim to offer a refreshing and straight talking approach to clients.
We listen to what business owners want from their professional advisors and work to address many of these with workable solutions.
Wherever possible we will keep innovating to ensure that we can offer more than the normal run of the mill services.
We offer businesses who would like professional assistance at whatever level, a whole range of tools and services.
We can introduce you to these tools and work with you to make your business more successful whilst increasing and protecting your wealth.
This could include:
- an in depth review of your historical performance
- benchmarking your business against your peers and providing suggested areas for improvement and estimating what this could mean in increased wealth for your business
- a regular BoardView session with a senior member of our team to help work with you to achieve real business improvements
- providing a range of possibilities to structure your business to minimise your tax and increase your wealth. This could be from a simple restructuring of your business to supporting you through the setting up of a commercial trust.
- providing and assisting you in fully systemising your business so that your business can work like clockwork so you don’t have to
- working on a fixed fee basis so there is no ambush billing and also offering you a money back guarantee.
Our case studies provide an interesting insight into what can be achieved by working with us.
Many owner managed and family businesses could benefit from the input of experienced professionals, however most of these may not be able to afford to employ full-time assistance. Hopefully we can provide a solution to fit their budget.
