You are finally getting recognition that you exist – it took a pandemic to do so! So, here is the thing, I’m looking for a metaphor to write this blog about small businesses in Australia that make up 62.7% of all enterprises that have finally been recognised by the government. And ironically this recognition comes about because of the pandemic. In the initial stimulus package, self-employed ABN holders were left out of the cash boost which was a refund on PAYG payments. They were also left out when Jobkeeper was first announced. But then with pressure it became clear that the 1.9 million enterprises in Australia run by one person needed support. So piece by piece, day by day, we started to get options for self-employed ABN holders who traded as a sole trader, in a partnership or as a one person company.

How to Survive a Rip Tide How to Survive a Rip Tide Lessons for Business The term “rip tide” is usually used to describe rip currents, which are long, narrow bands of water that can pull swimmers away from the shore. If you do get caught in a rip current, the best thing you can do is stay calm. It’s not going to pull you underwater, it’s just going to pull you away from shore. Call and wave for help. You want to float, and you don’t want to swim back to shore against the rip current because it will just tire you out. While some researchers recommend floating to the end of the current, advice swimming parallel to the shore to escape. In either case, it’s vital to stay calm and avoid swimming directly against the current. If you can’t break free, yell and wave your arms to get the attention of a lifeguard or other beach-goers. In the last three weeks and probably in the next few weeks you will feel like you and your business are caught in a rip. That’s because there’s a l
