Creating a better future for Caloundra The Caloundra Chamber of Commerce and Caloundra Business Alliance join forces.

here is no greater power for change than a community which works together under a shared vision.

This has never been more clearly illustrated than this past year in the wake of COVID-19. This past year mired with uncertainty and change has only strengthened the resolve of the Caloundra Business Alliance and the Caloundra Chamber of Commerce to work together to create confidence and successful outcomes for Caloundra. It is as important now as it has ever been to support the ongoing needs of the business community.

With a shared goal of creating a brighter future for Caloundra, these two business organisations have forged a strong and mutually beneficial relationship which has already resulted in a number of great local outcomes.

This includes the fantastic Jingle by the Beach event in 2020, which brought the community together to celebrate family, community and Christmas. With ongoing discussions between both organisations, locals can expect a full calendar of activities and events in 2021, which will contribute to the town’s vibrant and creative culture.

There are so many exciting opportunities ahead of those in Caloundra right now, but it is

up to the community to get this right.

One example of this is the Sunshine Coast Council’s Create Caloundra program, where the community has been asked to help shape the vibrant new community and creative hub in the CBD. This project, which includes a new library, regional art gallery and town square, will provide significant cultural, social benefits as well as broader economic outcomes for the region.

Another example is the Business Health Check Survey, which has been designed to better understand the health of local businesses and the well-being of business owners.

This survey is a comprehensive yet practical tool which is open for submission by business owners in Caloundra and Kawana and will be used to advocate for the needs of local businesses.

If you would like to get into contact with either organisation, please head to caloundrachamber.com.au or shopcaloundra.com.au.

And if you would like to help us create a better future for Caloundra, complete the Business Health Check Survey at businesshealthchecksurvey.com.

Proud to serve An introduction from State Member for Caloundra, Jason Hunt.

Photo credit: Blueys Photography

Jason Hunt MP pictured with family

S

ince the election result of October 31 I’ve not had much time for quiet reflection, or even noisy reflection for that matter. Family time has become harder to come by, so I do tend to make the most of it when it comes.

That’s okay however, nobody forced me to run for parliament. In fact, if I’m not busy as your MP it means I’m doing it wrong.

Starting as a new MP is a daunting business, they even send you to ‘MP School’ for a week where you are expected to learn all there is to know about being an MP. It’s a wild ride and to be honest, nothing can prepare you for it.

Within a few weeks the new MPs had to attend ‘school’, get sworn in during the ceremonial opening of the 57th parliament,

hand down a state budget, and take part in the estimates process. Oh and while that was going on we were all desperately trying to set up our electoral offices back in our respective electorates. Mercifully, fate handed me two of the most able and gifted young women to run my office while I was away. If you have ever been to the office you will have met Charli and Ash. No MP has ever had better staff in their electoral office.

Early on I was given a very sound bit of advice from Chris Whiting, the member for Bancroft. I was writing my maiden speech which is considered something of a big deal in parliamentary circles, so its important that you get it right for yourself and for the people who put you in parliament. Chris said to me: “Leave your thank you’s till last because nearly everybody chokes up.” Never a truer word spoken.

I thanked the people of Caloundra, my volunteers and my immediate family

members. I thanked my mum and dad and wished that they had lived to see me get sworn in. This is roughly when the tears began to flow rather freely.

What I did not manage to do, because the words could not pass the lump in my throat, was to properly and adequately thank my wife and son; even writing this now has caused my vision to blur slightly.

When my lad Liam was born I was taken to another room after our family was first united and told to nurse Liam while the staff looked after my wife Justine. For almost 15 minutes It was just Liam and I getting to know each other, and it was the most transformative 15 minutes of my life. In that moment, something in me ‘broke’ but in a good way. By that I mean that since becoming a dad, I wear my emotions so much closer to the surface these days... and I love it, even if it does mean I blub a bit more than I used to.

The truth is I will never be able to properly thank my wife and son for the sacrifices they have made to help get me elected. The times I have missed the play, the walks, the bedtime stories. My beautiful wife has taken on so much to allow me to campaign and now to try to be the best MP I can be. I could not do it without her, and I will never be able to acknowledge all that she has done for me in the way she deserves.

One of the other things that stands out to me is the sheer joy of being the MP for your hometown. Apart from my time in the military and at university, I have lived in Caloundra and Currimundi since my family moved here in 1973.

From school captain of Caloundra High in 1987 to MP for Caloundra in 2020 is a big leap with a lot of years in between, but I am completely honoured to be the MP for Caloundra and I hope I can represent the area as it surely deserves to be represented.

6 Key skillsets for small business success

E

ver wonder why some people succeed in business and others fail? What are the key skillsets that those successful small business owners possess? More importantly, how do you get them?

With over 20 years’ experience working in the SME market across a wide variety of industries, business advisor and chartered accountant, Dianne Brown, believes the following six skillsets are the key to small business success: 1. Time management It might sound simple, but sometimes it’s the simple things that make the difference.

As a small business owner, you are constantly juggling multiple demands of clients, staff, other external stakeholders, finances, family, and health. But working constant 12-hour days is not the answer. Rather, it’s a fast track to burnout and an indication that your internal systems are not as efficient as they should be. Good time management means you have planned and prioritised your day, week, month and acted/delegated accordingly. Don’t forget that you also need

to plan time to deal with those little emergencies that arise and more importantly, plan your 'down time'.

2. Communication Communication is the lifeblood of business. Successful business owners can identify and connect with their clients, stakeholders and staff using multiple communication formats; verbal, written, email, text, social media, Zoom, Teams … the list is endless. Successful communication is about knowing when and how to use the different mediums, developing effective listening and questioning techniques, understanding the impact of body language, displaying empathy, and knowing how to negotiate.

3. Financial literacy It’s surprising how many small business operators start their business with little or no understanding of financial literacy. This is akin to starting to drive without first reading your learner’s manual. Knowing how to set up and monitor a business budget, understanding the importance of cash flow,

how to read a profit & loss and balance sheet and more importantly, understand why profit does not equal cash in your bank account, is critical to business success.

4. Strategic business planning How do you know how to get there if you haven’t planned where you want to go?

Identifying and creating your business vision will help you determine where you want to be. Once you know where you are now, have identified where you want to be in two to five years, then you can map out action items to help you work out how you’re going to get there. Successful small business owners are those who understand that a strategic business plan is not a 'set and forget' process.

It is a living document that embodies your business vision and provides you with a clear plan to achieve that vision.

5. Problem solving As a small business owner, the buck stops with you. Vital to your small business success is your ability to firstly recognise problems or potential problems, then deal with them appropriately. It’s about

recognising what the issues are, not the symptoms, and putting in place solutions to address those issues. That means thinking creatively, researching the impact and potential solutions, considering the impact the problem has on you and others and how this can be handled.

6. Sales skills Don’t consider yourself a salesperson?

Think again. Every successful small business owner knows what their product or service is, who their target market is, why their market needs their product or service and more importantly, has a sales process or structure to access that market and achieve those sales. No one knows more about your business, product or service or is as passionate about your business as you.

You are the key driver of your sales success.

SRJ Walker Wayland provides several solutions to assist small business owners develop, improve, and refine the above skillsets.

The future of Caloundra is bright – and creative!

An update from the Caloundra Chamber of Commerce.

C

aloundra’s community organisation stalwarts are in many ways the custodians of the region’s longstanding culture and lifestyle. From sporting clubs, men’s sheds, surf clubs and Rotary to business organisations and school P&C’s – the work that is done by these dedicated volunteers should be a point of pride for all of us who call Caloundra home.

In early March, The Caloundra Chamber of Commerce held an inaugural President’s Breakfast event to show our appreciation for the work that is done by such organisations.

Making the most of this opportunity, the Chamber also posed a simple question to the group: What are the top three priorities for Caloundra?’ The answers: (1) Infrastructure projects which enhance our transport connectivity; (2) Youth development; (3) Taking advantage of the

Southeast Queensland Olympic Bid. Caloundra’s appetite for creative and cultural events was once again on display at the brand-new Sunshine Coast Chamber Music Festival’s launch, with over 200 people in attendance. The Caloundra Chamber of Commerce is proud to have supported this SOLD-OUT event, in partnership with the festival organisers, at the often-overlooked Strand Arcade. Once again, this has proven the viability of cultural entertainment in our town.

As an ongoing example of this, you need not look further than the monthly Caloundra and Currimundi Twilight Markets and the Caloundra Street Fair, Sunday market. As normality has returned, there has been growing local support for these community markets which continue to bring joy to so many.
