The confidence to hire contractors

Every job is essential

When large parts of the economy were going into shut-down our prime minister addressed the nation and declared that every job is now essential. Every business with work to do needs the confidence to hire independent professionals to get the job done, help self-employed workers and support the economy.

Operating through uncertainty

These are the most uncertain times in a generation, yet these are the times where small businesses grit shines through. Operating in uncertainty requires un-unprecedented flexibility to survive and a determination to get on with the job regardless of the obstacles.

Supporting the community

Small businesses have long been the cornerstone of the Australian economy, there is now more on their shoulders than ever before. Supporting the community means everything from delivering essential services, providing work to keeping our communities running.

A new era of doing business

People want independence

The trend towards independence, work-life balance, working from home is no longer moving along, its here and here to stay. People need the flexibility to adapt to their personal circumstances and will demand recognition for the quality and quantity of work produced rather than time spent working.

The economy has fragmented

With entire industries forced into shut-down, people and businesses are innovating at lightening speed to adapt to the new world of business. Some industries will struggle, some may never return but new micro industries are popping up each day.

Deliverables have been re-defined

In a world where social distancing and isolation is the norm, the impulse to micro-manage has become challenging at best. Instead people and businesses are being forced to look at deliverables in terms of outcomes, this is a dramatic shift that opens the potential to re-define productivity and efficiencies for business.
