Financial Strategies for Business Owners

By , July 6, 2020
Brooke Berry

Brooke Berry, Financial Adviser at Agilis Accountants, is dedicated to helping clients feel empowered and in control of their financial life. In this episode, she shares her work on providing growth strategies and helping business owners manage their funds and protect their assets, and how business owners can overcome the fear of letting go of their business and feel in control of navigating retirement.

Brooke had a successful 16-year career in the corporate sector and her last role was working as a Business Development Manager in Funds Management. She was responsible for the distribution of an extensive suite of superannuation and investment products. However, possessing a sense of unwavering integrity in everything that she does fueled her drive to leave the corporate world where she established an independent professional development event called The Investment Committee for the professional adviser community.

Brooke holds a Diploma in Financial Planning (Kaplan) and a Graduate Certificate in Applied Finance (QUT). She is now working on obtaining her Master of Financial Planning at Griffith University.

Dr Craig West

Founder & Chairman | Succession Plus

Dr Craig West is a strategic accountant who has over 20 years of experience advising business owners.

With a background as an accountant in practice and two master’s degrees, Craig formed a strong view that the majority of business owners (and often their advisers) were unprepared and unaware of the steps required to prepare for exit. He then designed and documented a unique 21-Step Business Succession and Exit Planning process to assist owners and their advisers in navigating this process.

Craig now acts as a strategic business and financial mentor for mid-market business owners. Craig has written four critically acclaimed books educating business owners on employee incentives, succession planning, asset protection, and exit strategies. Additionally, he has completed doctoral research on Employee Share Ownership Plans (ESOPs) for succession.

Craig is a Member of the Forbes Business Council where he leverages his extensive experience to contribute valuable insights on helping business leaders navigate the complexities of growing and exiting their businesses.

In April 2024, the Exit Planning Institute admitted Craig to the International Exit Planning Circle of Excellence.
