When Sterling Hirsch built Collective VFO, he wanted something different than a traditional wealth management firm.

There’s another $200K/yr sitting in your 2025 client list. Here’s 3 steps to unlock it in 2026. Our clients tried preloading in 2025. Sam added $120K recurrent advisory before March. Greg sold $1.4M tax planning before June. Here's how you preload for 2026 right now. 1. Track Workflow Build a dashboard to track every job's turnaround time and WIP (Dashboard insight is a good one) This lets you prevent blockages and finish compliance by March (not May). Now you have 3 months to deliver next year's tax planning advisory. 2. Fix Pricing Unbundle your services. Turn scope creep into client upgrade pathways. Target $100K-$300K in advisory revenue every year from existing clients. Your top 20% clients should be paying 5× your average. 3. Run Weekly 'Next Right Project' Meetings Pick one internal team growth project per week. Have each key person suggest one change they can do that lets you move forward. Momentum comes from consistent small wins, not big quarterly pushes. Without structure, your team gets distracted with random urgencies. You can plan in November, execute in January. Or you can plan in January. Play catch up till March. Finish tax season exhausted. Then start planning again in June and hear 'I'm too busy' when you finally pitch clients in October. Answer this: What's actually stopping your growth right now? A) Can't see where work is stuck B) Clients won't pay premium C) Team has no momentum Pick ONE.

Holding company vs trading company - what’s the real difference? It might sound simple, but how your company is classified can have a huge impact on the tax reliefs you qualify for. A holding company is there to own things - shares, property, or assets. It doesn’t trade or carry out day-to-day business. A trading company, on the other hand, earns income through activity - providing services, selling products, or operating commercially. Why does it matter? Because most major tax reliefs only apply to trading companies, including: Substantial Shareholding Exemption (SSE) when selling a subsidiary tax-free Incorporation Relief when moving assets into a company Business Property Relief (BPR) for inheritance tax Business Asset Disposal Relief (BADR) on exit If HMRC sees your company as “holding” rather than “trading,” you could lose access to all of these. ✅ Make sure your structure and company activity reflect your long-term goals - especially if you’re planning to sell, pass assets down, or build a group. 🟢 We help business owners set up structures that qualify for the right reliefs and protect long-term value. 🔗
