We are the next ‘phone a friend’, once you’re past the point of getting help from friends and family. We aren’t a massive consultancy either – we’re here for people like you in remote and rural Australia that just want a bit of support to make things happen… by people that get it (because we’ve done the same).

With practical guidance and real connection, we help you turn big goals into achievable actions, one step at a time.
Take our MicroReady assessment and understand your readiness to start a microenterprise. You will reflect on your existing skills and experience, confidence, availability, business knowledge, and personal motivation. The tool returns a personalised readiness score and tailored recommendations.
