Ready for greater financial success?

You’ve built a business and achieved some momentum, but the financial side still feels stressful and uncertain. You want more predictable cash flow, better profitability, and the ability to pay yourself well as the leader of your business. But as your business grows, the financial decisions only become bigger and riskier. Without the right systems and support, you’re flying blind.

Every successful CEO understands their financial position and makes informed decisions. If you want to step fully into the CEO role and build real financial stability, this is where it starts.

Welcome to the Success Circle.

What is The Success Circle?

The Success Circle is for 6-figure business owners who have achieved some momentum in their business, but know their finances could be working much harder for them.

Inside The Success Circle, you’ll learn how to run your business with the same Financial Success Framework we use with our multi-million-dollar revenue clients. You’ll build simple, repeatable systems around cash flow, profit and decision-making so you can stop flying blind and grow your business with confidence.

And you won’t just learn the framework. You’ll integrate it into your business, review your numbers regularly, and make smarter decisions alongside a group of ambitious business owners who are aiming higher and taking their role as CEO seriously. You’ll no longer be afraid of financial conversations.

Doors officially open in February so join the waitlist to have first access!

Who is the Success Circle for?

The Success Circle is the right fit for you if:

  • Your business consistently earns $10K–$50K per month, and you’re focused on growing beyond that.

  • You’ve been in business for more than 12 months and have a stable offering.

  • You want clarity in your numbers and want to stop winging it.

  • You want predictable cash flow and more profit.

  • You’re ready to step out of playing small and lead as the CEO of your business (and pay yourself as a CEO).

  • You want to speak confidently to your numbers and stop being afraid of financial conversations.

  • You want to be part of a community that shares your ambition and encourages each other to grow.

The Success Circle is NOT for you if:

  • You haven’t started trading yet and are still testing your business idea.

  • You have no interest in understanding or improving your financial performance.

  • You’re not ready to be a leader and take accountability for your business performance.

  • You’re seeking a temporary solution and aren’t willing to invest time in growing your business in a sustainable way.

  • You prefer to work alone, without guidance or support.

What To Expect

By implementing the Financial Success Framework, you can expect to see early wins in the first 30-60 days, such as clearer cash flow visibility, better pricing decisions or an understanding of what’s driving profit. More significant changes typically show up within 3–6 months. These include:

  • Sustainable revenue growth

  • Consistent cash in the bank and less financial stress

  • A profitable business that supports your long-term goals

  • Reliably paying yourself a true CEO wage

  • Faster and smarter decision-making than your competitors

  • Ability to plan ahead instead of reacting to surprises

  • Confidence to lead financial conversations with clarity and authority

  • A reliable system that removes overwhelm and keeps you in control

FAQs

  • It begins with an acceleration month designed to help you tailor and implement the Financial Success Framework in your business. This is where the foundations are set and everything is customised to your specific goals and numbers.

    From month two onwards, you will have two structured calls each month:

    • a monthly performance review to help you interpret your numbers and understand what is driving the results, and

    • a monthly forecasting session focused on forward planning and making informed decisions about the months ahead.

    At the start of each quarter, you will also take part in a dedicated goal-setting session to ensure you are tracking the right metrics and setting clear, realistic targets.

    Between calls, you can post questions in the Slack community and receive direct guidance from Sarah.

    If you join at the Success Mastery level, this also includes a quarterly one-on-one review with Sarah and access to private messaging for more personalised support.

  • The monthly performance review is held on the second Wednesday of each month, and the monthly forecasting call takes place on the fourth Thursday of each month.

  • Yes, replays will be available in the member portal but only for 30 days.

  • The program commitment is a minimum of 6 months, as this will significantly increase your results.

    Most members spend 1–2 hours per week implementing the tools in their business and reviewing their financials. This is a weekly habit of top entrepreneurs.

  • No. The program is designed for business owners who don’t necessarily consider themselves “numbers people.” Everything is explained in plain language and the system guides you step-by-step. You can also ask clarifying questions at any time.

    Being a part of the Success Circle will help members to become comfortable with money conversations.

  • Most members see early wins in the first 30-60 days, such as clearer cash flow visibility, better pricing decisions or understanding what’s driving their profit. More significant changes typically show up within 3–6 months.

  • The Success Circle is delivered entirely online and scheduled to suit Australian time zones, so you can join from anywhere in Australia.

    If you’re based outside Australia, you’re still welcome to join if the session times work for you. Please note that the content is designed with Australian businesses in mind, including local regulations, tax considerations and commercial context.

    If you’re an Australian business with overseas customers or operations, this program is absolutely a great fit.

  • Your business structure doesn’t matter, provided you have an established offering and have been trading for at least 12 months.

    Please note that the program does not cover advice on business structures. For guidance on the most appropriate structure for your situation, we recommend speaking with your accountant.

  • Members can continue in the Success Circle for another 6 months, purchase additional coaching, or graduate into a Virtual CFO package if they are ready for a higher level of support.

  • Xero is our preferred accounting platform and we’ll be demonstrating how to set up reporting in Xero to support financial success. If you use another system, you can still join, but we won’t be covering reporting setup in other platforms.

    If you don’t currently use accounting software, we strongly recommend implementing one once your business is earning more than $10,000 per month. You can access 90% off a Xero subscription for the first 6 months using our affiliate link HERE.

  • The VIP option provides a one-to-one session every quarter. You will also get access to one-to-one support via Slack.

    If you need additional sessions or would like some once off support, you can purchase CFO on Demand sessions outside of this program.

  • You are never required to share anything you are not comfortable with. That said, this is a program focused on money, and you will get the most value from the Success Circle if you are open about your financials.

    A key part of the process is learning to view your numbers as neutral data points at a point in time. They are not good or bad, they are simply information that helps you make better business decisions.
