Start a business in Australia***

When you think about working for yourself, a number of pleasantries spring to mind. You:

  • can dictate your own hours;
  • have the freedom to take time off when you want or need to;
  • can do what you want to do — when you want to do it — all in the location of your choice.

Although starting a business can be challenging at times it is one of the most rewarding things you can do. You can effectively control your own destiny and guarantee your future income without relying on a job.

A lot of people talk about starting a business, and many people want to, but never end up getting started. This might be because they think it takes luck, a clever idea or just knowing the right people. That’s not true.

Starting your own business is really all about you.

Working for yourself requires discipline and for many people the freedom of being in control can be terrifying! BUT —For those people who succeed in doing it, working for yourself is the ultimate in personal freedom and fulfillment. You can make a lot of money too.

Be your own boss

mums returning to workManaging any business, even if it’s not your own, includes the same challenges a business owner has to deal with but the difference is that you get paid a salary and the business owner gets paid dividends (or wages if they work in the business as well).

Either way, all businesses need to be managed by someone and all good businesses are managed according to a business plan — something we will help you create.

When you register to take advantage of one of our work-at-home business opportunities you’ll have access to the Small Business Management and StartUp Course from the Australian Small Business Centre. This course will guide you through every step of writing a business plan for your business as well as give you excellent practical skills to achieve your small business goals.

The Business Plan

business-plan-documentThe work-at-home business opportunities we work with are with established businesses so a business, marketing and sales plan have already been created.

The benefit for you to create your own business plan (at your own pace) is that you’ll have an opportunity to learn about what needs to be in a good business plan, but more importantly you’ll understand the market place for the business opportunity you’ve chosen to work in.

A business plan is a relatively simple document that simply states what most business owners know.

What is the opportunity?

When you create a business plan you look at all sorts of information, including:

  • Information about the product or service you sell,
  • Information about your competitors,
  • Your key advantages over your competitors and
  • How you are going to get that message across to potential customers.

Opportunities are around us EVERY day. Listen to people, ask questions and do your own research online and you’ll discover opportunity wherever you hear someone talking about how hard something is, or how time-consuming something is. Just listen for “I wish…” and you may discover an opportunity.

Is it really an opportunity?

You can look at what drives opportunities to discover the one best suited to you. Here are some examples:

  1. Bookkeeping is something that EVERY business needs someone to do. It is part of their compliance requirements to report to the ATO and most business people don’t want to do it themselves.
  2. Online Marketing is something that EVERY business has to do otherwise they’ll miss out on the wave of change that is happening around us all right now with the Internet and Mobile phones. If business spend thousands of dollars on the Yellow Pages like they use to and not on Google or Facebook marketing they could be spending much more than they need to and still not be discovered by their potential customers.
  3. Work, Health and Safety is growing in relevance for most companies because PCBU’s (that’s the technical term for managers or business owner) are personally responsible for any risky work that occurs while they are the manager. If someone is injured or killed they can be sued “personally”! That is a major driver behind electronic visitor management and online contractor inductions.

A business plan also contains information about how you are going to manage the business from day-to-day, who your team members are and how you plan to organise the supply of your products (or your team members in a service business) the delivery of your product/service and the billing and financial management of the business.

The best part about doing a Small Business Management and StartUp Course with us is we have taken the most important and relevant subjects (units of competency) for the nationally accredited curriculum and combined them to produce a course where the work you do for each subject results in a full and complete business plan.

Professional Support

What goes into a business planAchievement Coaching

Each of the work-at-home business opportunities we offer include achievement coaching which is normally valued at $2600, but included in each of the opportunities to maximise your success.

Our Support Team

Most of our support team have completed the course or operate their own independent businesses. These people are available to help you succeed with your goals, keep you on track to achieve your goals or simply help you navigate around the course and learning management system.

Small Business Mentor

When you’re starting a new business mentoring support from someone who has already started that kind of business will help accelerate your results and provide you with a sounding board for ideas, suggestions and most importantly the unknown aspects of the business – the thing you “don’t know that you don’t know”.

Earnings Guarantee!

Most business operators know that there are no guarantees in business and there is a classic advertising saying that crystalises this understanding:

Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted, trouble is I don’t know which half

This simply means that the needs of the market change, the message they need to hear to buy your product changes and the messages from your competitors changes. Sometimes you’ll try something and it won’t work – it could be the wrong day of the week, wrong time of the year or it’s not front of mind for them right now, but if you are persistent and give your business a good go then you’ll start to see customers coming your way.

Each of the work-at-home business opportunities at this site come with an earnings guarantee – that if, after doing your training and a dedicated attempt at sales and marketing you still aren’t earning money that the vendor will pay you to perform tasks for them to help you earn money.
