As a guide to costings on a daily basis, ongoing or long-term assignments are costed at a minimum of $1,000 per day, plus GST. Alternatively, short and medium term assignemnts, will be costed at approximately $1,500 to $2,000 per day plus GST.

Experience
Angelo Coco is an Adviser, Executive Coach and experienced Designer, Developer and Facilitator of business development initiatives for a broad range of Family, SME, Public and Private sector organisations.
Angelo began his career as an Accountant, where he soon noticed that compliance reporting and tax reporting were usually the least of a functioning business entity’s concerns. Angelo has since and has always undertaken training which helps companies in the broader sense, and making a much bigger impact for families in business by way of profit, better work practices and family cohesion.
With a high profile mentor in Townsville, (Phillip Leong, OAM), Angelo started his practice Coco & Stanton in the mid-90s, which was later merged with Crow Horwath, (WHK at that time) in Townsville. Wanting to specialise in Business Advisory work, Angelo trained with Family Business Australia, then with Family Firm Inc. (FFI in the USA), in providing advisory consulting to families in business. In 2009 Angelo went on to form Family Business Support, a consultancy specifically focused to provide family business advisory services. Angelo then provided Mentoring and Strategic and Succession Planning services to family businesses across Regional Queensland, and through FFI, co-facilitated, an international cohort, of qualified professionals, to attain accreditation in this field.
