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.

Streetwork - One Of The Special Organisations In Our Midst

Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.
with Alexi Boyd from Boyd Office Management Services
Date: 18 July 2017
Hornsby is unique for lots of reasons but one of the things I love about living in this fantastic area of Sydney is the honest, genuine people everywhere in Hornsby who give so much of themselves to their fellow man. It’s something we all need to be proud of and reminded of. So every so often I like to remind the small businesses what makes this part of Sydney so special and maybe suggest how they too can get involved.
It doesn’t have to be be money (although we all know that’s where we can do the most good) but perhaps gifts in kind, volunteering time, or even taking someone who hasn’t been so lucky in life under your wing.
Today we welcome Lucy Dahill from the wonderful organisation Streetwork to the show to tell us about how she helps others in her community and more importantly works hard to coordinate support for vulnerable kids across lots of groups.
Welcome to the show Lucy.
Topics we’ll be covering:
- The issues facing young unemployed local teenagers and how they can break through to the job market.
- How small business can support these people.
- The shifting demographics around Hornsby & KuringGai area that small businesses need to be aware of.
- Degradation of TAFE & things to do locally
