Advisory Clients
“We sought assistance with selling our window coverings businesses — Windoware, MCP Australia, and Smart Home Products. Brett managed this complex process in a highly professional and praiseworthy manner. His deep knowledge proved invaluable and directly contributed to a successful outcome.
Brett’s calm approach and expertise made working with him a genuine pleasure throughout what could have been a stressful time. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him.”
— Stephanie Ruhl, Group General Manager

Accounting Clients
"Consulting to the Fietelson Group Advisory Partner prepared financial modelling for an AJ Bush application for a Queensland Government grant for a renewable fuel project. It was complex modelling, but well done, very detailed and prepared in a short time frame.
"It’s important to have technical people with Brett’s expertise to call on for advice on taxation and other issues. Business is about confidence and trust and I have both with Brett. We’re on the same page and can build coalitions to get things done. He’ll also be frank if he thinks an idea won’t work."
— David Kassulke, AJ Bush & Sons (Manufactures) Pty Ltd
"We’ve been working with Advisory Partner on our year-end financials but more broadly we communicate regularly as we map our way through future strategies for the farm over the next few years.
"One of the biggest value-adds we get from Brett Plant and the Advisory Partner team is assistance with R&D. We invest heavily in R&D for things like heat-sealed, tamperproof packaging for fresh produce, and weren’t aware of some of the grants and tax incentives available until Brett and his team shared their research.
"Advisory Partner works side by side with us, analysing our financial data to achieve the best possible outcomes for the business group long term. "
— Richard Fletcher, Financial Controller, Sunray Strawberries Pty Ltd
"We engaged Advisory Partner to prepare an expert valuation for a Queensland Supreme Court dispute over the sale of a silver mine. We had a very short time frame to get the report completed and admitted into evidence.
"Advisory Partner was able to turn the job around in the time it might have taken to get a letter of engagement signed with a big accounting firm and the fee structure was commercially acceptable. We won the case and the valuation was an important element of our evidence, as was additional back-up information Brett provided quickly during a court recess.
"It is unusual to find someone with that expertise in the junior resources sector and I’d certainly recommend Advisory Partner."
— John Haley, BCom, MBA
Farm Advisory
"We run the cattle business — but we needed help with everything else. Now we’re more organised, more accountable, and working on our future, not just in it."
— Worsfold Family
"Succession planning is complex, but now we know where we’re heading. Our whole family is in the conversation — and we feel confident about the next generation."
— 5th Generation Farmers, NSW
"We had a good team — but Matt pulled it all together. We’ve achieved more in six months than we had in years."
— Farm Business Success Program Client
"Matt is honest, diligent, and a standout in the field. He’s helped us uncover opportunities and avoid costly oversights."
— Nick
"He asks the hard questions, keeps us focused, and genuinely cares about our success."
