The new Small Biz Matters program is all about People, Policy, Purpose. It is conversational and chatty and dedicated to empowering small businesses and their advisors to engage with policy and advocacy. Why? Because what Government does very much Matters to all Small Biz. Good and bad. A labour of love, in 2014 Alexi Boyd started broadcasting to give back to the local small business community. She knew information and support was lacking. Now with over 220 podcasts, the show is sought by PR Agencies and Government departments for its rich, informative content. Media Partners include universities, the Australian Tax Office, ASBFEO, COSBOA and international fintechs. Sponsored by the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman’s office, each week we sit down with experts, advocates, business leaders, policy makers and politicians to dive into specific areas of government policy that affects your business and clients. We’ll give you a heads up on what’s coming down the policy pipeline, find out who’s fighting in your corner and empower you with ways you can influence those decisions which affect your business every single day. The program is broadcast weekly on Tuesdays live on local community radio Triple H 100.1FM, through the Community Broadcasting network, and wherever you get your favourite podcasts.

Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.
with Alexi Boyd, broadcaster, advocate and small business owner.
Date: 12 November 2019
As a small business owner we all wear many hats but there’s one hat out there, for lots of small businesses, that REALLY doesn’t fit. And that’s the bookkeeping hat.
So with the evolution of cloud accounting, AI and better data entry automation do I really need a bookkeeper? Well, last time I checked the compliance side of running a small business in Australia isn’t going away. In fact, with GST, STP, Super Regulation and Fair work mandatories, I don’t think the red tape beast is dying anytime soon. Plus do you really know HOW to get the most out of all that efficient software or should you really have some help along the way?
So who’s the best advisor to wear this compliance, data entry, regulation hat on behalf? A qualified BAS agent, that’s who. Here to tell us why is Matthew Addison, the Executive Chairman & Director, Institute of Certified Bookkeepers who has for many years been the champion of the industry and the small business champion too. Let’s find out how…
