ONE SMALL BUSINESS WITH UP TO 12 EMPLOYEES WILL RECEIVE AN $8,000 EMPLOYEE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM - FREE!

The lifecycle of an employee, from recruitment and onboarding through to performance, development, retention and departure, can be one of the hardest parts of running a small business.

Many small-business owners have employees but no clear, consistent system for managing them. Recruitment is rushed, onboarding is informal, expectations are unclear, difficult conversations are delayed, and valuable knowledge can walk out the door when someone leaves.

Too much of the process often sits in the owner’s head, meaning employee issues are handled reactively, usually once they have already become a problem.

This is what Hire. Thrive. Exit. is designed to solve.

It is a practical, customised employee management program covering the complete employee lifecycle:
HIRE
Recruit the right people, clarify roles, improve selection, and create structured onboarding and probation processes.

THRIVE
Set clear expectations, introduce regular catch-ups, improve feedback and performance conversations, support wellbeing and development, and retain good employees.

EXIT
Handle resignations and offboarding professionally, complete proper handovers, protect business knowledge, and learn from why employees leave.

With the business’s values at the centre, the program includes:
A review of current employee practices
Confidential employee input
A written, customised employee management plan
Clear priorities and recommended actions
Practical templates, conversation guides and checklists
Support to introduce the agreed changes
A final review

The program is delivered over 10–12 weeks and is valued at $8,000
As part of the launch, I am looking for one small business to receive the program free of charge. The owner and employees must be willing to commit the required time over the 10-12 weeks and be willing to provide feedback about the program.

To apply, please email me and answer the following:
What does your business do?
How many employees do you have?
What is your biggest employee-management challenge?
How is this challenge affecting you, your employees or the business?
What would you most like to improve?
Why should your business be selected?
Are you and your employees willing to participate and provide honest feedback?

The next Precious Time Business Banter session is coming up, and this month’s topic is one that affects every single business owner:

Pricing Strategies

📅 Wednesday 25th March

🕤 9:30am – 11:00am

📍 Unit 11/231 Balcatta Road, Balcatta

We’ll be talking about:
• What do you include in your charge out rate
• Handling price objections
• When and how to increase your rates
• Avoiding the underquoting trap

This isn’t networking and it’s not a workshop. It’s a facilitated peer discussion, real business owners sharing what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what they’ve learned the hard way.

If pricing has ever made you uncomfortable, this session will be worth your time.

Seats are limited, your first session is free, please message me to book in, if you have already claimed your free session, please head over to the website and sign up as a member, you can join as a founding member or choose to pay per month

Straight talk for owners and sole traders. Bring a challenge, leave with options - real lessons, real fixes, zero pitches.

We had our first Precious Time Business Banter session this morning.

There were only four of us in the room, but between the four of us, we had 56 years of experience running a business!

That’s 56 years of lessons learned the hard way.
56 years of mistakes, wins, staff issues, pricing decisions, client dramas, growth decisions and “I wish I knew that earlier” moments.
In 90 minutes, we shared what was working well for us right now.
It reinforced exactly why I started this: Everyone speaks. Everyone contributes. Everyone leaves with something useful.

Imagine what happens when you sit in a room with decades of lived business experience, actually get to ask questions and feel supported.

That’s what Business Banter is about.

Details of how to sign up are on my website. https://precious-time.com.au/product/business-banter/

The date and time for the next session will be shared next week.
