Small Business Intelligence, educating the entrepreneur  
  About Us
Small Business Intelligence ™ (SBI)
The SBI network is a network for small business owners, budding entrepreneurs and solopreneurs.

The focus of the network is on providing high quality business education for the subscriber members. We believe that small business owners need all of the support that they can get in order to survive, and especially to thrive in the current economy.

Through the SBI subscription service entrepreneurs will receive the information to turn their businesses around if they are not performing to expectation, or to take them to the top, if they are already successful enterprises. This Business Education is by way of a book & tape subscription service, along with Business Breakfasts, Seminars and Workshops.

Our Business Book and Tape program features the best in business books, tapes, CD's and videos currently available in Australia today. The titles are especially vetted and chosen for their content. We make a conscious attempt to have a large proportion of Australian content provided by business veterans who have some invaluable lessons to share from their own business journeys.

The knowledge which is passed on through this education service, will enable business owners to fine tune their business systems & customer relationship management. With excellent systems in place and superior customer relationship management a business will soar and has the potential of becoming a leader in the field of its own domain.

Here at SBI we believe the well known maxim:"The more you learn, the more you earn!" And we congratulate you on your interest, as the mere fact that you are exploring this website, indicates that you may well be one of the 5% of business owners who think that self-improvement and business education is critical to your success!

Now for the next stage, once an entrepreneur has taken the vital step to embark on a rigorous business education program, the story isn't over.

Once an entrepreneur has a handle on the systems & customer relationship issues, and of course provided that the service/product he/she is selling is top class, then the very last and vital step, is to let the world know about it.
This is where, we believe there is much wastage and many problems.

Many businesses waste precious resources on advertising that simply doesn't work for them and here's where we pitch in and help with this problem. With every subscription, we give away a software package which measures your ROI on every marketing campaign!

The Pepsoft software package, which comes automatically and FREE with every subscription, has an RRPAU$495 and is invaluable to entrepreneurs who want their marketing campaigns to be cost effective business generating, money making machines!

Benefits of an SBI Subscription
If you can already see the incredible value offered by deciding to invest in a FULL SBI Membership subscription, go for it straight away! Simply click to subscribe.
If you still need convincing, read on!



If you subscribe, you will be entitled to receive:

(a) Our business education book/tape program. At (approx six week) intervals we will "drip feed" you with the especially chosen best business titles available in this country today. We particularly include titles which have been chosen because the author/speaker has been a business owner and has something invaluable and practical to share with other entrepreneurs. Although the program is not exclusively Australian content, we have largely and deliberately chosen or published titles from the Australian entrepreneurial context.

In other words, our sources come from experts who write/speak, rather than speakers/writers who are not experts in business!

(b) Along with this education program, you also have all of the benefits available to the SBI Breakfast members,(see sbi breakfast club site accessable from the home page), with better discounts and advertising opportunities to take advantage of creative, discounted marketing for your business. We source great advertising opportunities on behalf of our members and we make the experience for them more than worthwhile, focusing on getting a better ROI (return on their investment).

(c) Through SBI bulk buying power, we are able to procure discounted products/services for our members.

(d) We also provide Pepsoft software (RRP $495) included as part of the membership package, which will measure your ROI (return on your investment) and really lets you know which mediums work for your business! This is an essential and invaluable marketing measurement tool for every small business owner. Too many business owners simply don't know how much money is wasted on marketing that is not effectively working for them!

We take the headache out of 'hit 'n miss' advertising for the average small business owner.


(e) Financial members are also entitled to a large ad in the SBI printed business directory (produced annually), an advertisement in the main section of this SBI website, under Business Services &/Or Business Products, as well as the opportunity to market their services/products through the SBI forum.

(f) Financial members have an advertisement in the Business Services/Products section of this web site and an advertisement on the Breakfast Club site too!

This service is an initiative of Cre@tive Knowhow A Division of Kirrily King Publishing(ABN 66824872974), a Canberra Based Publisher, which supports the aims of the SBI as outlined below:

Aims of the SBI

  • Providing Mentors
    To promote Australian business success stories (people who have become national icons) to other entrepreneurs, thus providing them with role models who can pass on the knowledge or "intelligence" necessary to grow their small businesses.

  • Promoting Australian Business Knowhow
    A national push to promote our "clever country" & its very own Aussie entrepreneurs for the benefit of all small business owners, everywhere.

  • To Connect Dynamic Small Business Owners
    To enable busy entrepreneurs to network with like-minded business winners.

  • To Provide Invaluable Business Education
    To encourage participation in a system of education which is dedicated to learning about the latest and best business ideas & strategies in the Australian context. Within this context, to provide the best Australian business development resources, (business/development books/ tapes/CD's/CDROMS) on the market today to the small business marketplace. In addition to this, SBI will run business education seminars and workshops led by dynamic leaders with vital and practical business knowledge or "intelligence" to share.

  • To Provide Quality Marketing Opportunities At A Discounted Price
    By virtue of "bulk buying", the SBI can provide small business subscribers with invaluable opportunities to advertise their businesses across different mediums at discounted prices, affording the opportunity to try out different forms of advertising and be able to measure what works for their individual businesses, via the software we provide from Pepsoft, another excellent Aussie product.

  • To Provide A Forum For Business Discussions
    To share ideas, knowledge and opinions on the principles learned through the education service and the marketing opportunities via the web site forum, supporting the SBI, with other “like-minded” entrepreneurs.

  • Save Time & Money & Learn New Skills
    By subscribing to this business service, members will receive the best business titles, on a six weekly basis. There will be a minimum of twenty of the best business books/tapes/CD's on the market today, sent to members in regular postings, giving them the time to read, absorb and apply the principles learned to their businesses. Then, members can choose to post their thoughts/experiences on the subject matter contained in the books /tapes/CD's/CDROM's covered, or indeed on the marketing opportunities shared, to the SBI forum on this internet web site. (Or indeed members may choose to simply read what others have to say on this subject matter).
    Members will save time because they won’t have to browse for hours in the bookshops for latest business titles and we know that this kind of research takes time and money! They will save money, particularly with the discounted marketing opportunities offered by this service and especially as they won't be wasting precious dollars on "Hit 'N Miss" marketing!
    We will take care of both the necessary research into choosing which are the best titles for small business owners today, and securing the best marketing deals for our members. Our researchers are in small business too, so they have the knowledge and experience to come up with choosing the most practical and invaluable resources on the market today and finding the most valuable marketing opportunities useful to busy, small business entrepreneurs.



"In five years time, you will be the same person you are today, except for the people you meet and the books you read."



Mix With Winners
You know, if you were to ask Bill Gates, Robert Kyosaki, and other well known business leaders what they thought was important in gaining an “edge” in the business world today, they would all list “learning from other successful entrepreneurs” as one of the key strategies, without a doubt.

You only need to read their books to find this information is true. In fact, Robert’s best selling book, “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” centred around the fact that learning from his “Rich Dad” who was a millionaire entrepreneur, was the key to his success!

The people who are willing to learn from other successful business people are the ones who are subscribers to this reading service. So, if you are one of them, then no doubt you will meet other “like minded” business owners in our midst.
