Our Business Planning Process

We follow a proven methodology to develop business plans that drive meaningful results for your organisation.

1
Discovery & Analysis
We begin by understanding your business in detail - your vision, goals, market position, financial situation, and operational challenges. This comprehensive assessment forms the foundation of our planning process.

Strategic Framework Development
Based on our analysis, we develop a strategic framework that aligns with your business goals. This includes defining your competitive advantage, target markets, and key performance indicators.
3
Financial Modeling & Projections
We create detailed financial models and projections to quantify your business plan, including revenue forecasts, expense budgets, cash flow analyses, and capital requirements.
4
Action Plan Creation
We translate strategy into action by developing practical, step-by-step implementation plans with clear timelines, responsibilities, and resource allocations.
5
Review & Refinement
We present our draft plan for your feedback and make refinements to ensure it fully aligns with your vision and requirements.
6
Implementation Support
We don't just deliver a plan - we provide ongoing support to help you implement it successfully, including regular check-ins, performance tracking, and plan adjustments as needed.

What our clients are saying


“PMCA has been our accountant since we launched our Business in 1990. They have always been responsive to our needs and offered creative but prudent advice. Philip adds significant further value due to his strategic insight and his understanding of human behaviour; in fact, some of our conversations feel almost like therapy! Oh yes - and a great sense of humour! ”
Clive Harrison
“PMCA has been our accountant for over 20 years. We have come to rely heavily on them for advice and personal service. We value their experience and professional approach. They are always available to offer assistance (with a sense of humour) and have acted on our behalf in our dealings with the bank, tax office, ASIC, and more over the years. Highly recommended. ”
Rose Hamill
“Philip is excellent. He is approachable, doesn't use jargon and is truly an expert in his field. After a disappointing experience with a larger firm, I was glad to find someone who offered the personal service Philip provides. I now consider him one of my most trusted advisers. ”
Mortgage Broker Melbourne
“I have known Philip for a number of years, and he has been an essential part of my business growth. Philip's expertise and knowledge are unquestionable, and his personal approach is what makes him a standout in his field.”

How is PMCA Different?

PMCA Advisory is a boutique firm imbued by Philip Martin’s mantra “To be of value”. When you become a client of ours it’s like you are becoming a part of our extended family. No lock-in contracts here, just a desire to see your business grow.

Whether you are receiving Executive Coaching from Philip, being taught accounting software like Xero, or engaging in a business diagnostic by one of our specialists, Philip will personally oversee the portfolio of every business client. You can rest assured knowing you are in safe hands with Philip’s decades of experience as a chartered accountant in a diverse range of sectors.

PMCA Advisory is large enough to provide you specialist staff with dedicated knowledge in specific aspects of your business, yet small enough to allow Philip to be centrally involved in overseeing the entire service. Unlike some larger firms, your account will always be managed by an expert, receiving the attention and service it deserves. We understand no two businesses or business owners are the same and make it our mission to develop a detailed understanding of your unique challenges and give you the most effective set of solutions for your business.

Our
Approach

At PMCA Advisory we actively engage with each client about their business. Philip draws upon his years of experience to ask probing questions that enable us to clarify how we can help you grow your business. More than simply providing tax compliance services and tax returns, we help business owners achieve their goals.

In addition to your initial discussion with Philip, where appropriate, each new PMCA Advisory client is invited to undertake an hour-long interview with our Head of Business Diagnostics. In this session we will develop an understanding of you as the business owner, your business, and your aspirations.
