Welcome to the Accountants Scaled Advice Platform
A.S.A.P. is like referring your clients to a financial planner but from the comfort of your office.
Top quality Statements of Advice are generated by our digital advice engine, reviewed and signed by our advisers then issued under our license.

Who is A.S.A.P. for?

Here’s what accountants say about A.S.A.P….
We find A.S.A.P.’s digital advice platform easy to use with minimal disruption to our operations. I especially liked that Jim and the team were flexible enough to liase with me directly to provide a more in-depth piece of advice for one of our more complicated client scenarios
Joshua HaqueWe’re really happy with A.S.A.P. It slots in to provide the product advice we can no longer give and allows our firm to focus on our specialist tax and compliance advisory services.
Garry CharlesworthThank you for the excellent service. We have used A.S.A.P. a number of times and referred you to many other accountants as it is a top service that fixes a major problem faced by all public accountants.
Simon NielsenA.S.A.P. gives us a safe structure and process we can use when clients want to discuss potential SMSF transactions. The new ASIC changes mean our accountants are covered with A.S.A.P.’s easy to use interface, and at $250 per SoA – we use it every time a client wants to discuss a transaction that we would help to implement – such as starting or commuting a SMSF pension.
Craig StevensA.S.A.P has developed an online SOA solution that allows non AFSL accountants to deliver SMSF services on an execution only basis. If you are wary of the high fees financial planners want to prepare an SOA; have done your homework and realise the cost, time and effort to become licenced is not worth your while – I strongly suggest you look at the A.S.A.P model.
