The Audere Group’s mission is simple:

We exist to make it easy for those who advise to do business.

Mixing coaching, software and in-the-trenches support to create extraordinary outcomes.

    The people doing that work deserve businesses that support them – not consume them

Audere began in 2013 as a consulting and coaching firm focused on advice businesses.

To achieve our goals, we need to move beyond coaching alone.

We still love great conversations, frameworks and whiteboards. But real change in advice-based practices comes from combining:
  • Better decisions (pricing, capacity, model, tech).
  • Better systems and tools
  • And steady execution support over time

That’s the space Audere sits in: between traditional coaching and hands-on enablement

From coaching to building an ecosystem

Audere began in 2013 as a consulting and coaching firm focused on advice businesses

We saw something important:
  • The best-performing firms weren’t just working harder or being more “motivated”.
  • They had better models, better systems and better leveraged them.
  • Those systems did the heavy lifting that allowed them to thrive.

Over time, that pushed us in two directions:

    Deep coaching programs.
    Helping established practices redesign their profit model, operating system, team structure and tech stack.

    Software tools for advisers and advice-based firms.
    Building and operating tools that our clients – and the wider market – can plug straight into, under our guidance.

Today, Audere is not just “a coaching business”.

It’s a group focused on finding and proving new, scalable ways to help advice-based firms run better – and often, putting our own skin in the game alongside you.

And when it comes to building a great advice business...

Over a decade of working with advice-based firms has taught us a few things, which you’ll feel in how we coach and what we build:

Blueprints Be Damned

There is one “best”  business model for advice, no best practice and no singular blueprint for success. What works for one rarely replicates the same results for another.

Business Model Matters

The most positive mindset can’t outperform systems that are fundamentally broken. The best culture won’t endure a business that can’t afford to pay them.

Innovation Lives Outside

The Big Mac wasn’t invented at HQ and innovation doesn’t come from internal memos. It comes from taking a willingess to look beyond what you know and a willingess to experiment with improvement.

Evolve To Simplicity

The more a practice grows, the more complex it becomes. Without a focus on continually simplifying and streamlining, it will eventually become unmanageable.

Stewart Bell is the founder and principal coach at Audere Coaching & Consulting.

For more than a decade he’s worked with financial advisers, accountants and mortgage brokers who advise others on money, but are often too busy to fully optimise their own business.

In that time, he’s

  • Helped hundreds of advice-based firms across Australia clarify their business model, pricing, capacity, operating rhythm and relationship with tech.
  • Been an early voice on using tech and AI sensibly in advice – not as shortcuts, but as productivity and quality tools
  • Built and co-built tools and frameworks that are now used across practices of very different shapes and size

Business & Accountability manager

“I help numbers/money people play the business game better.”

I love seeing business ideas come to life and watching their growth slowly unfold. As a partner of your business, my goal is to be able to work on the background and make sure the cog on the wheel is well oiled and working smoothly.

When I see the businesses I work with slowly achieve their goals, it’s like fuel that excites me to want to do even better.

Full description

Stewart Bell is the founder and principal coach at Audere Coaching & Consulting.

For more than a decade he’s worked almost exclusively with financial advisers, accountants and mortgage brokers – the “numbers people” who advise others on money, but are often too busy to fully optimise their own business.

For more than a decade he’s worked almost exclusively with financial advisers, accountants and mortgage brokers – the “numbers people” who advise others on money, but are often too busy to fully optimise their own business.

He’s:

  • Helped hundreds of advice-based firms across Australia clarify their model, pricing, capacity and operating rhythm
  • Been an early voice on using tech and AI sensibly in advice businesses – not as shortcuts, but as capacity and quality tools
  • Built and co-built tools and frameworks that are now used across practices of very different shapes and sizes

Who we’re best suited to help

We’re a good fit if you:

  • Own or lead a financial advice, accounting or mortgage broking firm
  • Are established – not a start-up – and want to improve how the business runs
  • Care about compliance and advice quality as much as margins
  • Want to make smarter decisions about pricing, capacity, team design and tech
  • Are willing to do the work, and want a partner to help you focus and execute

We’re probably not the right fit if you:

  • Want hacks, scripts or a “plug-and-play funnel” that ignores regulation and capacityx
  • Just want motivation rather than hard conversations and numbers
  • Aren’t ready to change how you operate

Where to from here?

There are three main ways to plug into what we do:

Coaching programs

For firms ready to seriously redesign how the business runs (and get the owner out of the middle).
We’ll help you map decisions, redesign your model, make tech work for you, and build an execution engine.

Practice Success Portal (free)

For practice owners who want to test ideas, access tools and learn with others before committing to coaching.

Tools and partnerships

For firms, licensees or partners who see potential in our tools and want to explore broader enablement or “skin in the game” arrangements.
