Let's start building your biz
Answer 15 simple questions, pay at the end, and we'll take it from there. All up, it should take no more than 2 to 3 business days to set-up
This shapes your whole setup — your website, your job types, your quoting templates.
Any other trades in the business? (optional)
How will your business be set up?
*
A SOLE TRADER is just you, trading under your own ABN and is the simplest and cheapest way to start, and how most of our customers begin. A PARTNERSHIP is two or more people sharing one business and its ABN. A COMPANY (Pty Ltd) is a separate legal entity with its own costs and yearly obligations. Which one suits you is a decision for you and your accountant, we can't advise on that, but here's how we can help either way.
Do you already have an ABN?
*
If your business (or company) already has one, we build around it. If not, registering one is the first step — it's free, and we guide you through it click by click.
What do you want to call your business?
*
Check whether it's available first. Using the below "ASIC Check" link below (look top right), select from the drop down options"Organisations and Business Names" and then type in your preferred name and then press "Go" to search. Nothing found then it's free to use, if there's something the same or similar then try something else or a slight variation to what you want. Click here to get started
ASIC Check and then let me know exactly what name you're going with below.
Best mobile to reach you?
*
Progress updates come by text, so keep your phone close.
Best email to reach you? (your current one)
*
This is where your logins and further information get sent. Your new business email will get created later as part of the build, so you don't need to worry about that yet.
What would you like your new business email to start with?
*
e.g. "hello", "info", or your first name, whatever suits your business. Whatever you choose will sit before the @ sign and will be followed by your new domain name. (e.g. hello@abc.com.au). Please note that you can have multiple email addresses, so feel free to insert up to 3 words/ names and we'll add them for you.
What suburb or town are you based in?
*
Your website gets written for your area, so include your suburb/ region and state, e.g. "Geelong VIC".
How far will you travel for work?
*
Is there anything else you offer that wasn't on the list?
Totally optional. Whatever you type here goes on your website and into your job types too.
What type of customers do you want to work for?
*
This shapes your marketing plan. Pick builders and we'll include a plain-English commercial checklist in your handover as well as the paperwork bigger clients ask for, decoded.
When are you available to work?
*
How do you want to get paid?
*
Tick both if you like — most do.
Do you expect to earn over $75,000 in your first year?
*
Over $75,000, GST registration is required and we include it in your setup. Under that it's optional and can be added any time later. If you're unsure, your accountant will be able to help.
Up to 6 — finished jobs, your ute, you on the tools. No photos is fine too; your site will look sharp either way, and you can send photos any time later.
Anything else we should know?
Anything you want the website to say, things you'll want changed later, or just questions. A real person reads every word.
Introductory customer — The Full Build
*
One flat price. Everything on the tin: registration guided or done, website, business email, quoting & invoicing app configured, payments, booking calendar, Google listing, and your first-30-days hub. Government fees (like the ASIC business name fee, ~$45–$105) are extra, at cost — you pay the government, not us. Typically set up in 2–3 business days once your registration step is done.
