Kevin
Kevin owned and operated his own business for 32 years. The lessons learned are summarised by his five key points:
- Cash Flow is King
- Profitable customers are really everything
- No business is better than bad business
- No handshake deals – Have signed agreements
- Negotiation is far better than confrontation
His experience in credit management is now why his passion is to help businesses get it right! Consider Kevin’s following quote: “If only I could have been a secured creditor in my business” Of course this was not possible for him, however recent legislation means you can get it right for your business.
Kevin runs workshops and boardroom sessions including various industry groups. He explains in Layman’s terms why you should have up to date legally enforceable Terms & Conditions and also how to be a secured creditor by correct use of the PPSA Legislation.
DAle RhaLl
While Dale classifies himself as an entrepreneur, he has spent most of his life building substantial companies that have been leaders in their individual fields.
For 27 years he built a security company from a small local electronic security provider into an international organisation that had many of the largest surf industry players as clients. Other organisations include Energy Makers, a renewable energy provider operating on the cutting edge of the current technology available on a global scale.
The last 7 years Dale, has been a voice to the accounting and legal fraternity in Australia on the implications of the introduction of the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 and quite literally wrote the book on it. He has made it his personal focus to ensure that SME’s understand how to utilise this piece of legislation to protect itself from corporate collapse, phoenix activity and preferential payment clawbacks.
With this comprehensive history in building and operating major commercial organisations, Dale is uniquely aware of the risks associated with running a business and the importance of company compliance
