However, we know our "Creating Freedom" mission offers effective solutions to these critical issues!


Creating Freedom

The word "freedom" conjures up thoughts such as choice, free will, automony, independence, self-determination, etc. Its meaning has a two dimensional nature: Empowerment, the knowledge and ability to act and Time the period available to take action. This is percisely our objective, to use software and technology to develop solutions to your business needs that create greater freedom in your business and your lifestyle.

1. More Time

Increasing your efficiency and productivity by reducing the time spent performing tasks such as meaningless beauraucratic paperwork, estimating, invoicing, job costing, quoting, chasing money, etc.

2. Personal Empowerment

Increasing your effectiveness by providing you with the technology and software to optimally manage your business and lifestyle.

Axia Business Plus is the main vehicle we use to deliver greater freedom to your business. Our design goals were based on the following maxims about business owners.

Profit Growth
Many business owners are unable to draw profit from their business equivalent to industry level wages. Business owners need the tools to understand the who, how, what, where, when and if their business earns income and incurs expenses and how this impacts on their bottom line

Increased Productivity
Business owners need a system that removes wasted and lost time in their business, by understanding where resources are not being fully utilised. Also, this system must ensure all productive time is accurately and reliably charged for.

Product Differentiation
Business owners need to segment their markets so they can understand where their business is profitable and then differentiate their product offerings to better serve these niche markets.

Improvements to Customer Service
Business owners need mechanisms to help them improve their communication with their clients, beginning with their original cost estimate, through orders, jobs, suppliers, invoices and payment of accounts. This will result in significant reductions in re-work, complaints and faults.

Better control of Cashflow and Business Operating Costs
Most business owners do not have precise tools to help them understand how their business is performing, even at the fundamental level of who owes them money and who they owe money to. Often their true financial position is a complete mystery.

Greater Business Efficiency
Business owners can achieve streamlining of the administration of their business through better utilisation of time and resources required in the estimating, costing, accounting, marketing, planning, control, organisation and overall operational functions of their business

More Effective Planning and Control
Business owners need a system that delivers information they can understand to make them more effective in running jobs, organising staff, estimating costs and planning for the future.
