I launched a new music teachers directory website for the WA Music Teachers Association in December 2023, and have had very positive feedback from current WAMTA members as well as past members who have phoned me, very pleasantly surprised to find WAMTA members regularly appearing high up in search results….
The Recital & Concerto Competition is now in its 100th year! As part of the celebrations of this massive milestone, I’ve completely overhauled the RCC website, giving it a massive facelist and expanding it. It now includes blog posts to be able to provide regular updates, and a heap of other…

A word of mouth referral saw me helping a new book keeping business in Townsville, Queensland set up their marketing strategy on a shoestring budget. I helped Betta Biz Books by: I wish Lenore all the best with her new venture! She is well and truly qualified and experienced, and…
