Business Alert at 9:00am With CVA – You Can Fix Failure

Clear Vision • February 6, 2019

You Can Fix Failure, You Can’t Fix The Things You Never Tried.

The important thing in business is trying. Don’t worry about failing because if you haven’t failed, maybe you haven’t reached high enough or stretched yourself. Playing it safe sounds easier at first but it can also turn very stale quickly and what used to work, stops working.

If you’ve tried something along the way, maybe a new product or service and it hasn’t worked out, don’t give up on it all together. Maybe its lack of success was a sign, a red flag that one part of your idea needed to be tweaked or fixed. Failure doesn’t have to be the final verdict.

Come and have a meeting with us; let’s put the idea on the table and work through the pros and cons. Getting the idea and making a start is the hardest part and this part you’ve already done so let us help you crunch the numbers and see what’s possible.

If we can figure out how to stay the course and get back in the game after failure, you’ll go places and you’ll make the difference in your business you first intended to make.

Resilience. It’s the secret to success. Resilience is your most important weapon. Don’t quit. Keep going because there really is an upside to failure.

12% Superannuation Guarantee - 1 July 2025

By Caroline Gillies • June 22, 2025
From 1 July 2025, the Superannuation Guarantee (SG) rate in Australia will increase to 12%. This means employers will be legally required to contribute at least 12% of an eligible employee's ordinary time earnings to their superannuation fund. This increase is the final step in a legislated rise from 9.5% in 2021 to 12% by 2025, aimed at boosting retirement savings for Australian workers. If you use Xero for payroll, the SG rate should automatically update in the system. However, we recommend you double-check your payroll settings to ensure everything is correct. If you’re unsure or need assistance, please contact your bookkeeper or get in touch with us at: Clear Vision Accountancy Group (07) 4688 2500 We’re here to help you stay compliant and avoid any costly errors.
