Support Small Business as we recover from lockdowns. Christmas is coming and we have a favour to ask…
Many small businesses suffered during the many lockdowns over the last two years.
The BEST thing you can do for us is to shop local and buy from the small businesses in capital cities and in regional areas. Businesses like Oki Koki who rely on you to survive.
Why?
Small Business was not eligible for Government Handouts
Many large Australian businesses thrived in the lockdowns. So much so that’s many recorded annual profits, despite receiving government payments and support. Small business missed out on most of these support packages.
Small Business could do manage national click and collect
Many large businesses thrived with click and collect options. Small businesses were not able to offer click and collect nationally.
Small Business could not create a successful online business overnight
Many large businesses grew their online sales. Small businesses could not compete with online advertising to bring traffic to their websites.
Small business relied on the failings of an overwhelmed Australia Post
Large businesses managed post and shipping logistics using courier companies. Small businesses relied on Australia Post, which resulted in weeks and weeks of delays, delivery stoppages and many of us ended up managing customers waiting for their parcels. Some of us even shipped twice to minimise the damage and create a positive customer experience.
Because we care about our customers.
Because we’re Australian owned and run…
