𝐀𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐖𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝐞𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐞𝐧!

Social media is one to get your business noticed, but it’s not the only way.

And what many small business owners are finding these days is, social media can work but it’s getting harder and harder to get noticed. Plus it requires constant effort and the results can be very unpredictable.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐢𝐳 𝐂𝐚𝐟𝐞 is an online community built by solopreneurs, for solopreneurs!

Our aim is to provide a safe space for Australian small business owners to connect, collaborate, and support each other's growth.
If you’re looking for more ways to get your business seen, that doesn’t depend on algorithms, trends, or posting at the “right” time.

Check out The Biz Cafe: https://www.thebizcafe.com.au/home

Inside you'll find:
✨ A business directory that will help you get more visibility for your business
✨ A place to find collaboration partners who complement your work
✨ An event calendar where you can find and share workshops, networking events, webinars & more
✨ A library of resources to showcase your expertise and grow your audience
✨ Weekly co-working sessions for focused time to get stuff done

Plus there’s lots more to come in the next few months.

We have free & paid memberships, depending on what you're looking for.

And if you join before the end of February, you’ll get a 60-𝑫𝒂𝒚 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝒑𝒍𝒖𝒔 50% 𝒐𝒇𝒇 the 6 or 12 month membership plans for the lifetime of your membership.

💬As one member said "It's a no brainer... really"

Exciting news! 🎉 I’ve teamed up with Sandra Buckley and we are looking to create something new for Australian solopreneurs.

We are looking to create a central hub specifically for Aussie business owners - Australian Solopreneur Network.

Think: business directory + event calendar + collaboration board + quick expert calls + resource library all in one place.

It will have a place where you can:

📍 Share your events, workshops, webinars - in person and online 📍 Showcase your lead magnets, courses & digital products
📍 List your services in the business directory
📍 Post collaboration opportunities
📍 Book 15-minute chats with other business owners
📍 Connect with people who understand the solopreneur journey

We're validating the idea with a waitlist first. If we get enough interest, we'll start building with a goal to launch this year.

Anyone who joins the waitlist and answers a few simple questions will get the opportunity to join for free for 12 months.

I love coordinating the workshops for BBWN because it is always great seeing the satisfaction others get from mastering new skills and learning new tricks! Thanks Lee-Ann Wilson for putting on a great workshop with many happy learners at the end of it!

✨ What a fantastic morning of learning and creativity! ✨

Yesterday, the Bundaberg Business Women’s Network hosted a Canva Workshop at Regional Business HQ, presented by our Social Media Coordinator, Lee-Ann Wilson from Lee-Ann Wilson Photography

Lee-Ann shared tips, tricks, and practical know-how to help members create beautiful and effective designs for their businesses. A huge thank you also goes to our Member Workshop Coordinator, Lisa Jane Hawthorne, for being on hand to support the session and ensure everything ran smoothly. 💜

We loved seeing so many members dive in, learn new skills, and walk away feeling more confident with Canva. 🙌
