    If you're wondering what Fair Work changes are coming from 1 July and how they will impact your Australian small business, this episode is for you. Hello and welcome to this week's episode of The Australian Small Business Show.

    In this episode we discuss the key Fair Work and workplace compliance updates that Australian small business owners need to be aware of as the new financial year approaches. With changes to minimum wages, Modern Award rates, superannuation obligations and parental leave provisions, now is the time to ensure your business is prepared and compliant.

    We unpack the Fair Work Commission's latest decision to increase the National Minimum Wage and Modern Award minimum rates, and what those changes mean for employers across Australia. We also explore the broader impact these increases may have on staffing costs, employee expectations around pay rises, and the importance of reviewing your pricing strategy to account for rising employment costs.

    If you've been asking yourself, "What do I need to do before 1 July to stay compliant with Australian employment law and the Fair Work Act?" this episode provides a practical overview of the key actions to take now. We also discuss the move to Payday Super, changes to the government-funded Parental Leave Pay Scheme, and some of the workplace law myths and scare campaigns currently circulating in the market.

    As discussed in the episode, a free annual compliance webinar will be held to help employers understand the changes and prepare their businesses for the new financial year. This is an excellent opportunity for Australian small business owners to stay informed and reduce compliance risks.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Modern Award minimum rates of pay will increase by 4.75% from 1 July.
    • The National Minimum Wage will increase to $26.44 per hour or $1,004.90 per week.
    • Payday Super is being introduced, requiring superannuation contributions to be paid much more frequently and within strict timeframes.
    • The Parental Leave Pay Scheme is expanding to 130 days (26 weeks) for eligible parents.
    • Rising employment costs should prompt business owners to review budgets, cash flow forecasts and pricing strategies.
    • Not every workplace law change being advertised is actually new, making it important to seek accurate advice and information.

Drawing on more than a decade of business experience, we explore the common mistakes side business owners make, the steep learning curve of entrepreneurship, and why sustainable growth requires more than simply having a great idea. We dive into the five M’s framework: Method, Marketing, Money, Mindset and Momentum. We discuss why systems and processes matter, why marketing needs to be a deliberate strategy rather than a “hope” strategy, and why understanding your numbers is essential for long-term success in Australian small business. We also explore the emotional relationship many business owners have with money, why pricing can feel uncomfortable, and how mindset can either accelerate or handbrake your growth. If you’ve been asking yourself how to stop overthinking and finally launch your business idea, this episode will give you practical insight into moving past perfectionism and building momentum. We also discuss resilience in business, dealing with disappointment when launches don’t go to plan, and why measuring results and tracking data helps business owners make more informed decisions instead of reacting emotionally.

  • Federal Budget Recap (and a bit of a rant)

    Federal Budget Recap (and a bit of a rant)
    2026/05/30

    Join the waitlist for The Australian Small Business Show Club by clicking here.

    Hello and welcome to this weeks episode of The Australian Small Business Show!

    In this episode we’re unpacking the recent Federal Budget and what it could mean for Australian small business owners, both in business and personally. We discuss some of the key announcements that have business owners talking, including the proposed changes to Capital Gains Tax, trust structures, instant asset write-offs and tax loss carry back measures.

    We also explore how these proposed changes may impact investment strategies, property ownership, entrepreneurship and future business planning. We share our thoughts on how younger Australians are currently entering the property market, why many business owners are concerned about the direction of the budget, and what these changes could mean for business growth and long-term wealth creation.

    In this episode we also touch on the practical realities facing small businesses right now, including cash flow pressures, superannuation changes coming into effect, and the increasing compliance obligations for accountants, lawyers and other professional service providers. We discuss the upcoming payday super changes, anti-money laundering obligations, and why many businesses should prepare for increasing professional service costs over the next financial year.

    Importantly, whilst we share our thoughts and opinions on the budget announcements, we also strongly encourage business owners to seek personalised advice from their accountant, financial adviser or legal professional before making any decisions.

    As always, our goal is to help simplify complex business topics and start important conversations for Australian small business owners.
