Free support for small businesses during October

The Service NSW centre in Deepwater Plaza, Woy Woy

As part of NSW Small Business Month, businesses in Woy Woy and surrounds can access free, personalised support with business planning, marketing and cashflow from the Service NSW Business Bureau in Deepwater Plaza on Thursdays during October.

The bureau provides free, ongoing personalised support, digital tools and tailored advisory to businesses year-round and during October, additional appointments are accessible to accommodate as many small businesses as possible.

Advice is tailored to businesses at any lifecycle, from start-ups and established businesses, to mature or exiting.

Member for Gosford Liesl Tesch said the Business Bureau service was on hand to help Central Coast businesses thrive.

“Here on the Central Coast our small businesses are the lifeblood of our community,” she said.

“Our small business owners typically wear so many hats and so it’s so helpful having practical help on hand in a place as accessible as Woy Woy’s Deepwater Plaza.

“I encourage businesses here in Woy Woy and surrounding suburbs to go online and make an appointment with Service NSW Business Bureau during October.

“NSW Small Business Month is a great opportunity to not only recognise our small businesses for their substantial contributions but to remind business owners to take full advantage of what Business Bureau has to offer – all available at no cost.”

Small businesses contribute more than $500B to the NSW economy in sales and about 30 per cent of those businesses operate outside the Sydney metropolitan area.
