Empower.

Education and Advisory.
Oh yeah, some tax too.

Our Mission

We are data nerds, growth enthusiasts and lingo translators. We are helping businesses grow sustainably, through education and advice.

Our Services

Most people get into business because they love what they do - which doesn't involve spending their valuable time looking at the books.  We started Bramble and Briar so you can spend less time on the numbers and more time on what you actually love.

START YOUR BUSINESS

You have a killer business idea - but want to talk to someone about the best way to start it as a business?  Typically, we discuss types of structures that your business could form, and also how to start your business at low cost but then the implications and timing for perhaps setting up a company later down the track.

IMPROVE YOUR BUSINESS

We have a hands on former CFO on board, with detailed knowledge of the manufacturing and wholesale sectors. This enables us to provide you with tried and tested solutions to improve cash flow, reduce stock holdings and improve efficiencies, helping you get the most out of your business.

GROW YOUR BUSINESS

You've started your business, it's grown quickly and now you think it might be time to get in someone with a bit more know-how.  We can look at your business, and help you set it up for further growth.

Our Impact

Being female led with a technology focus has enabled us to create an environment where working part-time is the norm. We strive to be an employer of choice by offering genuine balance.

We only work with businesses (and associated humans), that align with our core values. It's important to us that staff are valued and always paid their entitlements. That quality isn't sacrificed and integrity isn't compromised for cheap savings. That there is an understanding that part of being a business is paying tax, as it goes to the community.
