COVID-19 — How We're Helping Small Businesses

Note: Pricing and offer details below are no longer current. For our current pricing, please see our Website Hosting page or get in touch.

COVID-19 small business assistance

The ongoing COVID-19 crisis has significantly impacted sole traders and small businesses in Western Australia. We were disappointed that the State Government only provided monetary support to “small” businesses with annual turnovers of $1–4 million through payroll relief programs.

Diverse small businesses form the backbone of our economy and deserve support during this pandemic. While many trades and retailers can’t work remotely, digital adaptation — online booking systems, drive-through services, remote client meetings — can reduce exposure and keep cashflow alive.
