Franchise Support Gold Coast
Accountants for NDIS Providers and Businesses
Supporting a Diverse Range of Franchisees Across the Gold Coast
We work with a wide range of franchise clients — from well-established names to emerging brands preparing to scale. Our clients include:
- Fitness franchises like F45 and Fit Stop, where we’ve developed deep expertise in managing unique structural and financial models
- Food and beverage brands, including Boost Juice and other fast-casual operators
- A growing beauty brand in the early stages of franchising, with tailored support to set up scalable systems and asset protection from the outset
Most of our clients are single-site franchisees, though many are now expanding to second and third locations. Whether you’re launching your first site or managing growth across multiple venues, we provide the tools and guidance to ensure your business is structured for success.
Our focus is on building strong, long-term relationships. We offer franchise support that Gold Coast business owners can depend on, no matter where they are in their journey.
About our Accounting Services for the NDIS
Our Approach to Franchising
We offer personalised advice that helps you operate confidently within the framework of your franchise while also protecting your long-term profitability and assets.
We start by helping you understand the systems, processes, and reporting frameworks set out by your franchisor. We show you how to work smarter within these constraints to optimise performance and reduce unnecessary friction.
Business structure is another critical piece. We’ll guide you through choosing or refining a structure that protects your assets, supports future growth, and aligns with your financial goals. From everyday decisions to long-term strategy, we’re here to support how your franchise operates.
Profitability is often one of the biggest challenges for franchisees. Whether it’s the cost of required systems, staffing obligations, or supplier restrictions, we help you manage the realities of these constraints without losing sight of your goals.

How We Help Franchisees Succeed
Franchisees often come to us when their businesses aren’t performing as expected and they’re unsure why. Profit margins are tight, costs feel fixed, and the franchise agreement leaves little room to move. That’s where we step in.
Our team understands how franchise structures work, because we’ve spent years working with models like F45, Fit Stop, and Boost Juice. We know what costs are locked in, where there’s flexibility, and how to get the most out of what you’ve signed up for.
For many franchisees, the first barrier is finance. Whether you’re applying for funding or managing debt, we support you through the process. We ensure your applications reflect the realities of your franchise obligations. We also assess how your business structure impacts asset protection and long-term planning, then make adjustments to reduce risk and support growth.
What makes our support different is that we look beyond the surface. We work with you in your business, helping you make confident decisions day to day. It’s a level of franchise support Gold Coast business owners tell us they wish they had from the start — focused, experienced, and committed to the outcome.

The Franchising Journey with Altias
1. We begin by understanding where you’re at and what you’re trying to achieve. This includes a close look at your current structure, financial position, franchise obligations, and the risks or constraints you may be facing. We take the time to uncover what’s holding you back and what opportunities exist.
2. With clarity on your goals, we move into refining your business. This might involve reviewing your operations, adjusting how you’re structured, addressing cash flow or profitability issues, or improving how your business runs day-to-day.
3. We stay involved as your business evolves. That means ongoing support through regular check-ins, financial reviews, and strategy updates. Whether it’s responding to operational challenges or making big-picture decisions, we’re there when it counts.
4. As your business matures, we help you prepare for what’s next. Whether that involves expansion, succession, or stepping away entirely, this stage touches on retirement planning, exit strategies, and ensuring the business is in the best possible position for a future handover or sale.

Common Challenges We Help Solve
Franchising can feel straightforward on paper, but in practice, many franchisees encounter challenges they weren’t expecting — especially when profitability doesn’t match the promise. One of the biggest issues we see is business owners locked into high-cost systems or mandatory supplier arrangements that chip away at margins. You may be required to use specific software, staffing ratios, or processes that don’t reflect the realities of your location or customer base.
Another major pain point is understanding what you’ve actually signed. Franchise agreements are complex, and many clients come to us unsure about their rights, responsibilities, or options. That lack of clarity can lead to costly missteps or missed opportunities. We work closely with experienced franchise lawyers to help you understand exactly what you’re working with and where you have room to move.
In some cases, the franchise model itself may be flawed or poorly suited to your market. We’ve seen this especially in networks like F45, where issues with long-term viability have affected franchisees across Australia. When the model isn’t delivering, we help you assess the risks, explore your options, and decide what’s worth investing in and what isn’t.

Client Education
Too often, franchisees are left to figure things out on their own. Either handed a manual, locked into a system, and expected to make it all work. The most effective support starts with education. The more you understand your agreement, your obligations, and your levers for profitability, the better equipped you are to run a successful business.
We take the time to walk you through your franchise agreement. Where legal interpretation is needed, we work alongside experienced franchise lawyers to ensure every clause is understood.
But it doesn’t stop there. We educate our clients on what their numbers mean, how to read their reports, and how to manage the day-to-day realities of franchise ownership. From staffing ratios to supplier restrictions, we show you where you have flexibility and where you don’t, so you can make more informed, strategic decisions.
This focus on education is what transforms reactive franchisees into proactive business owners, which is why Altias is trusted for franchise support on the Gold Coast that actually empowers.

The Outcome
When you work with Altias, you’re gaining a long-term partner who’s invested in your outcomes. For some clients, that means refining operations to boost profitability. For others, it’s planning an expansion, preparing for succession, or simply getting the business stable again.
Whatever the goal — growth, maintenance, or exit — our focus is on giving you clarity. Clarity around what’s working. Clarity around your risks. And clarity around how to make better decisions inside the framework you’re operating in.
We’ll continue to monitor, advise, and adjust strategies as your business evolves, as franchising isn’t a static process, and neither is the support you need to succeed.
