About the Show
Built by business owners, for business owners
The Australian Small Business Show is a weekly podcast created specifically for Australian small business owners. Every episode covers one specific strategy, topic, or insight. Practical, relevant, and grounded in real experience running businesses in Australia for over two decades. Whether you are just starting out, navigating the messy middle, trying to scale, or fighting to hold it together. The Australian Small Business Show meets you where you are. No fluff, no theory, no corporate jargon. Just honest conversations and actionable advice from people who have actually done it. Hosted by Kristy-Lee Billett, a nationally recognised HR expert and founder of People Powered Business, and Matt Heighway, an Accountant and strategic business adviser. Together they bring complementary expertise to the two biggest challenges every small business owner faces: their people and their numbers.

THE TASBS CLUB
A Community for Small Business Owners
Running a small business in Australia can feel isolating. You are making big decisions every day, often without anyone nearby who truly understands the context, who knows what a BAS is, who gets why losing one client can feel catastrophic, who has made the same payroll decision at 11pm on a Thursday.
The TASBS Club is built to fill that gap. A private community where Australian small business owners connect, share, and support each other with Matt and Kristy-Lee in there alongside you every step of the way.
