Small Business Australia is a voice for the five million people working in the small business sector.

Through strength in numbers we bring ideas, research, advocacy and buying power that improves small business conditions and makes a positive difference for businesses, team members and the local communities we serve and support.

Together with our supporters, we help more Aussie small businesses not just survive, but thrive.

WHY WE EXIST

Small businesses are the backbone of the economy and the heart and soul of local communities. With over 2 million small businesses in Australia supporting the livelihood of more than 5 million people, the small business sector is a big deal. 

Small Business Australia is a membership group created by small business people, for small business people. We advocate the interests of small business owners and team members to all levels of government, and promote key issues in the media, so we clear the roadblocks and allow more small businesses to be successful. 

WHAT WE DO

We ask

We research our members to gather your views about the state of the sector, and your ideas for overcoming any roadblocks holding you back. Then we push for positive change by sharing your views with the wider community.

We work

We ensure small business owners and team members have an effective voice at all levels of government, so we can improve small business sector conditions. We engage with big business to use our strength in numbers to get exclusive discounts and special offers for members.

We support

We provide tools, resources and online help to ensure our member small businesses can thrive. We coordinate a respectful online space where small business people can congregate, communicate and collaborate to help each other succeed.
