PROFILE

APPROACH

SHOW BUSINESS helps businesses and self-directed practitioners structure tasks, establish logistical continuity, manage priorities, and handle high-level administration.

Our aim is to create pathways for concepts to be realised by:

WORK OPTIONS

SHOW BUSINESS works on-site in Melbourne and Sydney, or remotely if preferred.

Work is flexible and tailored to each client's pace, priorities, and back-of-house setup—whether using paper-based systems, local computer-based file keeping, digital workspaces, or a combination.

We look to be helpful from the get-go and like to start with a no obligation chat to understand what you need a hand with and how we can help. Work is structured as:

— A free, informal info session
— Fixed-duration projects
— Ongoing, part-time support
— Open brief for varied tasks
