THE FINANCE FIX
A flavour-filled 3-hour pre-recorded course that helps business owners confidently manage, understand and, even enjoy, crunching numbers.
We transform bitter acronyms and accounting jargon – like GST, EOFY and BAS – into sweet spoonfuls of finance wisdom to make that money medicine go down.
Check out what's included;
- 4 x pre-recorded modules (scroll down for more info)
- 2 x Live Q&A sessions via Zoom where Lucy will answer all of your questions!
Grow the business you love with a bank account that loves you right back.
One day you decided to run a business. And your business has run you ever since.
All you craved was something of your own, a sweet side-hustle to make you some extra cash without the constraints. Instead, you feel trapped in a sticky state of cash flow confusion and finance fog.
You aren’t alone. I’ve met many entrepreneurs who have found themselves caught in the money anxiety surrounding their small business. And rather than tackling this emotional topic head-on, they find themselves deep in debt or worse – bombarded by bore-lord accountants.
If only they had a way to harness all that CEO confidence into concise number knowledge, right?
I’m here to tell you there’s a simple way to get on top of it all.
A way to go from confused to commanding with a candy-coated course chock-full of tips designed for folks just like you.
If these money stresses are making you sick, you aren’t alone.
(In the meantime, grab a ginger lolly and try to focus on the horizon.)
Hear me out.
What if your finances weren’t just fun but, they were also something that…
- you finally understand and feel really confident about
- you are genuinely really good at
- you enjoy (maybe even with a marg in hand)
- makes your life easier and your business money
And what if it were as easy as taking candy from a big, accounting baby?
Hi, I’m Lucy Starbuck, and I give a f*ck about your finances.
I’m a Brit-Aussie, doting dog mum to cocker spaniel, Buddy, oh, and a chartered accountant by trade.
I spend my days bringing flavour and fun to the dry world of finance across businesses both big (BIG4, big) and small. Over 15 years, climbing my way up the slippery corporate ladder, I’ve noticed that financial literacy is the not-so-secret ingredient for cash flow control. And that this wisdom isn’t as accessible as it should be.
The Finance Fix is your golden ticket to growing your small business, and looking at your P&L like a lolly shop. Join me in making numbers more palatable for the masses and turning a sweet profit in the process.
Wait, what’s so *different* about your course?
Firstly, I’m not what you usually think of when you picture an average accountant. Consider me more of a Willy Wonka-type.
Like Wonka, I’ve taken a wonderfully creative approach to finance to help you see the sweeter side of things. With me by your side, rather than just being told to “stop spending money”, you’ll make smarter money decisions with advice that focuses on the flow (and fun) of your finances.
Finally, I’m here to make money more accessible for women, and anyone else excluded from the cash flow convo. No glass ceilings or elevators here.
Our mouthwatering modules
MODULE 1:
THE RECIPE
If your business feels a lot like a gingerbread house; a little sticky and not nearly as structurally sound as the one pictured on the brochure, this module’s for you.
Together, we’ll unwrap the characteristics of your business, whether you should be a sole trader, limited company or registered for GST. Then, with a solid understanding of where to go, you can begin to make truly empowered business decisions, and with an appropriate number of bank accounts to match.
MODULE 2:
THE MINT CRISP MONEY SYSTEM
In a way, invoices and expenses can feel a lot like jawbreakers; never ending and cumbersome after the initial novelty has worn-off.
In this module, we’ll work out successful ways to help you snap out of bad money habits and sustain an abundant flow of money in your business. Think, smooth invoicing systems, effective and enjoyable expense tracking, plus accounting software you’ll actually use. Delish.
MODULE 3:
CARAMEL CASH FLOW
Why caramel? Because you don’t even need teeth to enjoy them!
In this step-by-step tutorial you’ll learn the bookkeeping skills to create a cash system that flows effortlessly. Make decisions like a f*cking mogul with a process created to grow a profitable and sustainable business.
MODULE 4:
MASTERING THE MYSTERY FLAVOURS
You know the feeling. You’ve picked a humble truffle thinking it’s probably hazelnut or espresso, when really, it’s cherry-liqueur flavoured – your least favourite of the lot.
I’ll help you navigate icky business landmines so you can avoid the BS or bitter stuff. Together we’ll translate things like BAS and GST, so you can talk numbers with financial fluency (and not a single cherry choccie in sight).
Sweeten the deal for me, Luce.
Okay, sure, you could go about this the traditional way, and potentially pay for much more than you’d bargained for, and not in a good way.
The alternative:
- Pay $300+ for a 1 hour appointment with a dry-wall, dry-conversation type, with an accounting degree.
- Pay $1,000 for an accountant to do your BAS for you, for the year – every year until one of your croaks.
- Pay $11,000 or approx. the cost of not knowing your numbers (true story*).
- Pay a deeply-unsettling amount in missed savings and profits over the next 3, 6, or 12-months.
