Liston Newton helped us move our accounting over to Xero. Their Accountant managed the set up and training so we felt comfortable with the software.

Our methodology
Our unique method for securing your financial freedom
How we get you set
The first phase is all about establishing the fundamentals of your business and creating a strong foundation to build from. You also need to establish your long-term goals so you have a clear idea of what you're working towards.
- Plan your goals
- Structure your business and assets
- Online accounting
- People and HR
- Protect your business and personal risk
- Business and personal will
How we get you moving
The second phase is about gaining a deeper understanding of your business; how to make it more efficient and experience sustainable growth. This is where you transition from working in your business to working on your business.
- Understand your numbers
- Delegate bookkeeping
- Systematise and automate tasks
- Minimise tax
- Forecast cashflow and capital needs
- Quarterly coaching and accountability
How we get you free
The final phase is when all your hard work really starts to pay off. This is when you start using your profits to build your personal worth to a point that give you financial freedom—the freedom to work only if you want to.
- Understand wealth creation
- Investment portfolio
- Investment property
- Superannuation
- Succession and exit planning
- Your legacy

We support our community as best we can
Corporate responsibility shouldn’t just be a marketing opportunity or a chore. We’ve always found participating in local community initiatives to be extremely personally rewarding. We’ve turned our passion for business into a skill, so helping charities excel is just as rewarding for us as it is for them. We support:
- The Type 1 Foundation (diabetes has personally touched the Liston family)
- The Cancer Council’s Biggest Morning Tea
- The Cancer Council’s Small Business Advisory Service
We settled on these initiatives because they were close to our hearts. But the teams at each of our offices around Australia support their own selection of charities.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need a local Gold Coast financial advisor?
A financial advisor is an investment in your future. It sounds trite, but it’s true. They provide expert advice and guidance on the best path to take with your money. They guide you towards achieving your short- and long-term goals. And they help you gain all-important peace of mind that you’re making the right decisions.
Our Gold Coast-based advisors have a better understanding of the local economy than outsiders do. We can respond to shifting factors and update our strategies with greater agility, keeping you in the best position possible.
How do I pick a good financial advisor?
Picking the right financial advisor can set you up for a successful future. So make sure you find one that you feel has your best interests in mind. Find out their qualifications, look at their experience, and see if they have a track record of helping individuals like you. It’s essential that they share a similar investment philosophy.
Importantly, make sure they offer all the services you need, from your own retirement planning to business investment strategy development.

How much does a financial planner on the Gold Coast cost?
Unlike a yearly tax return, good financial advisory doesn’t come with a set annual fee. How much your financial advisor costs depends on your needs; it depends on what you want to achieve with your relationship; it also depends on the services you require, the complexity surrounding your finances, and what you’re looking to accomplish in the long term.
The right financial advisor is going to save you money in some ventures and make you money in others. So instead of looking at cost, look at what they can help you achieve.
What happens when I work with a financial advisor?
Every financial advisor has a different way of operating. However, there are five broad stages you’ll go through.
- You meet for the first time to discuss your needs, talk through your current financial situation, and see if you’re going to be a good fit for each other.
- Your financial advisor then prepares a proposal with a high-level overview of the strategies that will make up your plan. This includes a timeframe in which to achieve it.
- Once you approve this, they then get to work turning it into a comprehensive action plan.
- When this is finalised, it’s time to get moving. They put your strategies into action.
As time goes on, they meet with you to discuss your plan. Is it meeting your needs? Has your situation changed? Regular reviews ensure your plan does what it sets out to do.

We serve people, not algorithms
Just like this page, every word of every strategy you receive from Liston Newton will have been written by a human being. Rapid new developments in emerging technologies have convinced others in our industry that ‘artificial intelligence’ can solve any problem. It cannot.
We embrace technology, and we believe AI is an exceptional productivity tool, capable of gathering data and simplifying processes. But forward-thinking, truly innovative financial advisory requires human beings. Our experience allows us to synthesize unique financial insights and develop unique strategies, and that is what we promise to deliver to you.
