WALK AWAY WITH GST SOLUTION AND ROADMAP

11 Sessions of Conferences Created Especially for SMEs

It was revealed that SMEs largely are still struggling with GST in the sense that despite knowing how GST works theoretically, but when it comes into integrating GST into their day to day operation, somehow they lack the confident and skills to do the right thing. We also found out that many are unclear on the right GST deadlines.

“The challenges discovered are given to subject matter experts to address SME’s the mind boggling GST issues and emotional challenges faced.”

This is not the standard cookie cutter, theory based conventional GST seminars. Each session in this event are result of extensive research. Custom made specifically for SMEs, so that you can overcome your GST challenges.


 

There are great and practical solutions and advices by Industry leaders for you to bring home. Avoid common submission mistakes, save on penalty and unnecessarystresses.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


WHAT GST CHALLENGES SMES ARE FACING ?

Implementing GST without SUFFICIENT knowledge is like walking in a dark room, you will never know what risk is lying ahead, the bad news is that you are taking unnecessary risk when it could have been easily avoided.

The good news is that you are not alone in this struggle. For the past one month we interviewed many businesses and accountants, they too are challenged by the shrinking of sales and pressured by the need to crack their heads and pressured to resolve the loose ends and painstaking GST comprehension and implementation.

WHAT IS THE KEY OBJECTIVES OF THIS EVENT ?

The following are the key objective of this three days event, created especially for SME :

  • Consolidate SME’s understanding of GST concept and methodology;
  • Provide roadmap with clear indication of what SME must do and when to do it;
  • Identify the list of common GST implementation and submission challenges;
  • Solutions and alternative to real GST challenges faced by SMEs;
  • Highlight ways to identify faulty & avoid falling pray to false invoice; and
  • List the changes needed in business operation to adapt to GST environment.

HOW DID WE IDENTIFY SMES’ KNOWLEDGE GAP ?

As a result of the interviews, we realised the problem lies in knowledge gap. Most companies’ struggle are mainly due to limited knowledge, their current know-how focuses only on overview and theoretical understanding of GST. The missing gap is the know-how in practical implementation.

With this problem faced by many, it is necessary to came up with three days conference content to provide answers to challenging GST concerns, pitfalls and also to provide conference attendees with various GST quick fix, tips & tricks by reliable and best industrial speaker whom are highly experienced and are leader in GST. We want to help you

WHAT MOST IMPORTANT UPDATES MOST OF US MISS OUT ON ? DIRECTOR GENERAL DIRECTIVES

Since implementation of GST, there are many Director General’s Directives being issued, we noticed that many were not aware of such directives and what more the important changes imposed. The speakers of this conference being the leader in the industry will enlighten you on the changes, share practical insights on the various implementation challenges arising from the NEW Directives.

It is our privilege and greatest honour to host “GST Expo & Conference 2015 for SME“. We trust you will benefit from this event regardless of which level of understanding you are in.

We look forward to welcome you.
