Our association with Luke Youd began around 5 years ago. His advice, guidance and expertise has steered us safely, successfully and profitably to a great semi retired lifestyle, arguably, 10 years or potentially more, ahead of schedule. We count ourselves very fortunate to have Luke in our corner. He has our sincerest thanks. If there were more stars we’d click everyone of them.

Our friends recommended Direct Wealth to us through their own experience of dealing with them.

We contacted Direct Wealth and our financial advisor was Sam Dwight. Upon meeting Sam we immediately felt relaxed and comfortable with his advice.

We found Sam to be very professional, caring and knowledgeable to assist us with our retirement and superannuation goals. He was always available and quickly responded to any questions or concerns we had.
We would highly recommend Direct Wealth and Sam Dwight.

my wife and myself were introduced to Ben Marlow of Direct Wealth for a discussion on looking after our superannuation & pension requirements. I was a little doubtful at first as the fund i was with was performing ok for me. Ben gave us his background on financial planning and we had a second meeting with Ben. After this meeting my wife and myself decided to let Direct Wealth look after our finances. We could not be more pleased with our switch to Direct Wealth as the team there are so helpful and keeping us informed on our financial matters. I would recommend to anyone Direct Wealth for looking after their financial planning.

We had a great experience with our last visit, now that hubby is 67yrs of age, they guided us in a few ways to repay our 2 loans.

We highly recommend Direct Wealth to anyone who wants financial advice of any kind. Very professional and understanding. Many thanks to Peter for many years and to Jason, who is now looking after us.
Cheers, Ronona and Warren Cuffe

We came to Lyle at Direct Wealth not knowing where our next financial step in life would go. With Lyle’s help, we are now looking forward to a comfortable retirement. He is very knowledgeable, and we highly recommend Lyle at Direct Wealth.

Ben Marlow was initially thrust upon us after the amalgamation of our accountants with Direct Wealth and this is without doubt one of the best financial outcomes to have happened to my wife and I. Initially I was sceptical of his enthusiasm and apparent desire to nurture and improve our financial stability moving towards retirement. Ben has tailored his communication style to not only be relatable to us but also educational and has further embedded our trust in his advice with proven outcomes. I would absolutely recommend Ben to any prospective client.

Had my first meeting with Greg and Simon today.
Very professional and answered all my questions with the exact details I was looking for in a financial team.
Other companies beat around the bush.
Really friendly and down to earth team.
This is my 3rd meeting this week with a advisory firm.
Should have just contacted them first

Frequently Asked Questions

Cash flow management involves tracking the money coming into and going out of your business or personal accounts. It helps you understand your financial position, ensuring you have enough funds to cover your expenses while allowing for savings and investments. Effective cash flow management is essential for maintaining financial stability and achieving your financial goals. By monitoring your cash flow, you can identify potential financial issues early and make informed decisions to keep your finances on track.

Proper cash flow management ensures you have sufficient liquidity to meet your obligations, avoid debt, and invest in growth opportunities.

A financial advisor can recommend the best tools for your needs and help you use them effectively. Additionally, automated tools can provide real-time updates and alerts, helping you stay on top of your finances and make adjustments as needed.

Improving cash flow can be achieved by increasing income, reducing expenses, and managing debt effectively. This may involve negotiating better terms with suppliers, improving invoicing processes, cutting unnecessary costs, and exploring additional revenue streams. A financial advisor can provide personalised strategies to enhance your cash flow. Implementing these strategies can help you maintain a healthy cash flow, avoid financial stress, and ensure you have the funds needed for both short-term and long-term goals.

Common challenges include unpredictable expenses, delayed payments, seasonal fluctuations in income, and managing debt. These issues can lead to cash shortages and financial stress. Proper planning and strategic management can help mitigate these challenges and maintain a healthy cash flow. By anticipating potential cash flow issues and developing contingency plans, you can navigate financial challenges more effectively and maintain financial stability.

It’s advisable to review your cash flow on a regular basis, such as monthly or quarterly. Regular reviews help you stay on top of your finances, identify trends, and make necessary adjustments. In times of financial change or uncertainty, more frequent reviews may be beneficial. Regularly reviewing your cash flow allows you to make informed decisions, adjust your budget as needed, and ensure you are on track to meet your financial goals.

Cash flow refers to the actual movement of money in and out of your accounts, while profit is the difference between your total revenue and total expenses over a period. A business can be profitable but still experience cash flow issues if expenses are not managed properly or if there are delays in receiving payments. Understanding the difference between cash flow and profit is crucial for effective financial management, as it helps you ensure you have enough liquidity to meet your obligations and invest in growth opportunities.

Managing seasonal fluctuations involves planning ahead, building a cash reserve, and adjusting your budget to account for periods of higher or lower income. Strategies may include diversifying income streams, negotiating flexible payment terms, and controlling costs during off-peak seasons. By proactively managing seasonal cash flow fluctuations, you can maintain financial stability, avoid cash shortages, and ensure you have the resources needed to take advantage of opportunities when they arise.

Yes, effective cash flow management can help you allocate funds towards debt repayment, reducing interest costs and improving your financial health. A financial advisor can create a debt repayment plan that fits your cash flow, helping you pay off debt more efficiently. By prioritising debt repayment and managing your cash flow effectively, you can reduce your overall debt burden, save money on interest, and improve your financial stability.

A cash flow forecast is a projection of your future cash inflows and outflows over a specific period. It helps you anticipate potential cash shortages or surpluses, allowing you to make informed financial decisions. Forecasts are crucial for planning and ensuring you have enough cash to meet your obligations. By regularly updating your cash flow forecast, you can adjust your financial plans as needed, ensuring you remain on track to achieve your financial goals.

Handling unexpected expenses involves maintaining an emergency fund, regularly reviewing your budget, and adjusting your spending as needed. Having a financial buffer in place can prevent unexpected costs from derailing your financial stability. A financial advisor can help you build and manage an emergency fund. By being prepared for unexpected expenses, you can avoid financial stress, maintain your financial stability, and ensure you have the resources needed to handle any surprises that come your way.

Tips for small businesses include:

  • Regularly reviewing and updating your budget.
  • Keeping track of all expenses.
  • Ensuring timely invoicing and follow-ups on overdue payments.
  • Maintaining a cash reserve for unexpected expenses.
  • Seeking professional advice to optimise financial strategies. Implementing these tips can help small businesses maintain healthy cash flow, avoid financial stress, and ensure they have the resources needed to grow and succeed.

During economic downturns, focus on maintaining liquidity by reducing non-essential expenses, renegotiating payment terms with suppliers, and seeking additional funding sources if needed. Diversifying your income streams and closely monitoring your cash flow can also help maintain financial stability. By being proactive and adjusting your financial strategies as needed, you can navigate economic downturns more effectively, maintain financial stability, and position yourself for success when conditions improve.

Technology plays a significant role in cash flow management by providing tools and software that automate tracking, forecasting, and reporting. These technologies enhance accuracy, save time, and offer insights that help you make informed financial decisions. A financial advisor can recommend and help implement the best technological solutions for your needs. By leveraging technology, you can streamline your cash flow management processes, gain real-time insights into your financial position, and make more informed decisions to achieve your financial goals.
