Business Advice to Auckland based businesses
The Business Advice & Implementation Grants are now available for application. Auckland businesses can apply for up to $3000 + GST through Business Advice support. An Implementation Grant will pay for specific services to put your business advice or plan into action.
If you’re looking for expert advice and support in areas such as Continuity, Financial Planning, Business Hibernation, Compromises or Exit, we can help get you there. You can access advice if you are considering hibernating or closing your business, or are looking to restructure.
The advice should lead to a plan to overcome challenges and/or identify opportunities and map out the scope of the work required to achieve the plan.
