+ Do I need an ABN to register a Business Name?

Yes, to register a business name, you will need to have an Australian Business Number (ABN), or be in the process of applying for one. We will organise this for free when you complete our online business name application form.

+ Do I need a name for a partnership?

As an example, if Kathy White partners with Peter Jacobs and they trade as Kathy White and Peter Jacobs, this partnership does not need to register a business name.

If Kathy White partners with Peter Jacobs who trades as Jacobs Consulting and they trade as Kathy White and Peter Jacobs, this partnership does need to register a business name.

+ Do I get a Business Name Certificate?

Yes, we’ll email this to you as soon as we have received it from ASIC.

+ How long does it take to register a business name?

Your name is immediately reserved once you complete our online business name application form which take about 10 minutes. It usually takes 2-5 business days for ASIC (Australian Government & Investments Commission) to review and approve your new name and issue your certificate of registration. We’ll get this over to you as soon as we receive it – now worries, no hassles.

+ How can I protect my business name?

Registering a business name does not protect you against third party claims for trade mark infringement. To ensure your proposed business name doesn't infringe on an existing registered trade mark, you should use IP Australia’s Australian Trade Mark Search to search for existing trademarks.

+ How much does it cost to register my business name?

You can either register your business name 1 year ($99) or 3 years ($199). Both packages come with Free ABN Registration, Free Domain Name Registration (.com.au - 1 year only), Business Resource Toolkit, Government Fees, Automatic Renewal Notification and Updates, Customer Support and Business Resource Centre.

+ When do I need to renew my business name?

Your name will need to be renewed by the end of the registration term, either 1 or 3 years, depending on what registration period you initially registered it for. Don’t worry, we've got that covered and we’ll send you a notification 45 days before the due date so you can renew your name.

+ What is an ABN number?

An Australian Business Number (ABN) is a unique 11 digit number that identifies your business to the government and community. An ABN doesn't replace your tax file number, but it is used for various tax and other business purposes.

The Australian Business Number (ABN) enables businesses in Australia to deal with a range of government departments and agencies using a single identification number. The ABN is a public number which does not replace your tax file number.

ABN registration details become part of the Australian Business Register (ABR) which the ATO maintains on behalf of the Commonwealth. You can access the publicly available information contained in the ABR through the ABN Lookup website.

+ Does my business need an ABN?

You will need to register for an ABN for certain tax purposes, such as GST and pay as you go (PAYG) withholding. You generally need to quote an ABN on your invoices or other documents relating to sales you make to other business.

+ How long does it take to register an ABN?

Provided you supply all the information required, you will usually receive online notification of your ABN immediately upon completion of the ABN application.

If you omit information or it cannot be verified an ABN will not be allocated immediately. Under these circumstances your application will be processed manually and can take up to 28 days. To check the progress of your application please contact the support@servepoint.com.au.

+ Can I use the same ABN for more than one business?

You can conduct any number of businesses/activities under the same ABN provided they all operate under the same business structure. If your second or subsequent business operates under a different structure, you need to apply for separate ABNs for each new business structure.

+ What is the format of the ABN?

The Australian Business Number (ABN) is a unique 11 digit identifier issued to all entities registered in the Australian Business Register (ABR).
The 11 digit ABN is structured as a 9 digit identifier with two leading check digits. See format of the ABN for more information.

+ What is GST?

Goods and services tax, often known as GST, is a broad-based tax of 10% on most goods, services and other items sold or consumed in Australia. GST applies to most Australian businesses and it's highly likely that your business will be affected by the tax. If your business is registered for GST, you'll have to collect some extra money (one-eleventh of the sale price) from your customers and pay it to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) when it is due.

+ Do I need to register for GST?

You must register for GST if:

  • your business has a GST turnover of $75,000 or more
  • your non-profit organisation has a turnover of $150,000 per year or more
  • you provide taxi travel for passengers in exchange for a fare as part of your business, regardless of your GST turnover. This rule applies to both taxi owner drivers and people who just rent a taxi.

As a business owner, it's your responsibility to register for GST if your turnover exceeds the $75,000 threshold or is likely to exceed it.

The ATO advises that if you've just started a new business and expect it to earn $75,000 or more in its first year of operation, you should register for GST.

GST turnover is your business's gross income, not your business's profit.

If your business doesn't fit into one of the above categories, you don't have to register for GST.

+ When do I need to register?

If you haven't registered for GST, and you become aware that your GST turnover will exceed the $75,000 per year threshold, you will have to register for GST within 21 days.

It's a good idea to check each month to ensure you're not likely to go over the over the limit. Keeping an eye on your GST turnover is important so you can register if necessary.

If your GST turnover is below the $75,000, registering for GST is optional.

You may choose to register if your GST turnover is below the $75,000 threshold, however this means that once registered, regardless of your turnover, you must include GST in your fees and claim GST credits for your business purchases.

+ How do I register for GST?

You need an Australian Business Number (ABN) to register for GST. Your ABN is part of the GST system and your ABN will be used as your GST registration number.

If you don't have an ABN and are registering for one, you can use our online dashboard to apply for an ABN. If you anticipate that your GST turnover will be over $75 000, make sure you register for GST when completing your ABN application.

+ What happens if I don't register for GST?

If your GST turnover is under $75,000 and you don't register for GST, you won't include a GST component in your prices. This means that any invoices you provide will need to show that GST was not included in the purchase price. You also can't claim GST credits for your business purchases.

+ How long does it take to register my business for GST?

Once your application is submitted, it takes around five working days to get GST Registration.

+ What do I get with my free Business Resource Toolkit?

You can use these brochures as a menu, product specification, introduction about your company or anything else you can think of.

+ Does my business need a brochure?

A brochure is the second most important item of advertising a business needs after a website. Although consumers get most of their information about products and services from the internet, most people like to have a hard copy which they can refer to.

Brochures, menus and posters are one of our favourite design projects because you can bend the rules in so many different ways. Our designers will be creative, bold, contemporary and differentiate you in the marketplace. They will create the most dynamic and eye-catching material that will bring people to your business.

+ What should I include in my brochure?

This purely depends on your business, what you want to say, what you want to use your brochure for, the products or services that you’re offering and many other factors.

The following tips explain how to design a brochure that will properly represent your mission, outline what you have to offer your target audience and serve as an effective marketing and sales tool.

  • A good headline is key - The headline on the front of your brochure should always include the interests and perceived problems of your targeted audience, and be followed by the solutions you can provide. Many business owners mistakenly lead with their company's basic information. It's imperative, however, to capture your audience's attention and prompt them to read the rest of the brochure. Why bother taking the time to create a great brochure if your audience only reads the front and then discards it?
  • Remember the basics - Don't ignore the basics when creating a brochure; it should include standard information, such as company name, at least two types of contact information, a logo and tagline. It should also include a headline on the front and two or three brief items outlining benefits your organization can provide. All text should be in brief, easy-to-read blocks to provide clarity for the reader. Add graphic images and photos of your product, services and/or key personnel for an eye-catching touch.
  • Don't confuse the reader - Avoid the temptation to list too much information on your brochure. Too many messages will confuse your audience and dilute your main points. Focus on what interests your target audience in a succinct manner, and they'll come away with an accurate understanding of what you can offer them and how you'll do it. It's OK to be proud of your business, but not at the expense of cluttering your brochure with irrelevant information.
  • Avoid big words - There's no need to impress your target audience by using hard-to-understand words that will send the reader scrambling for a dictionary. Your goal is to provide the reader with information regarding your organization, and triple-word-score Scrabble words and lengthy acronyms are hardly the best way to accomplish this. Plain speak is the best course of action.
  • Include a call to action - Don't assume your audience will be moved to contact you or purchase your product or services after they read your well-crafted brochure. An effective brochure should include a call to action, such as an offer for a free product sample or a free estimate or gift. This will entice readers and give them an incentive to act. Sometimes people need that extra motivation to contact you.
  • Don't be flimsy - A firm brochure is the equivalent of a firm handshake; it promotes confidence and competence. The weight, texture and overall feel are some of the first things someone will notice about your brochure. Use high-quality paper with a glossy finish to create a brochure that stands out. Handing out or mailing thin, flimsy brochures will signal that you put little thought and even less effort into developing your marketing materials.

Regardless of your business size or financial or design resources, the above tips will assist you in creating a brochure that will properly represent your organization, impress potential customers and call them to action.

+ How long does the design process take?

Depending on the package you have chosen and the number of revisions you have requested, the process usually takes anywhere from 5 to 7 days from the day you submit your completed online order questionnaire. Once you have completed and submitted your online information questionnaire the design and delivery process begins to work in overdrive. During this phase, our team will immerse itself into your business, its services and products and your market space to ensure we understand your value proposition, voice and objectives. This phase ensures we deliver a brochure that fits your needs and stands out amongst your competitors.

Once you have provided feedback, our team provides refinements to the brief and moves to redevelop your preferred designs and preferences until you have made your final decision so that you can begin the journey of turning your dream business into a reality.

Once you are completely satisfied with the final revisions, we will ask you to approve the final designs for processing, ready for you to download and launch.

+ What is a Trademark?

A trademark, trade mark, or trade-mark is a recognisable sign, design, or expression which identifies products or services of a particular source from those of others, although trademarks used to identify services are usually called service marks.

+ How do I register a trademark?

Registering your trademark is fast and easy, simply go to the main dashboard and select “Apply for a trademark” and complete the following steps.

  1. Complete order form questionnaire
  2. Once completed, simply proceed to checkout and process the order
  3. That’s it, your trademark application is now submitted. Please be aware that we may contact you for further information if required to do so.

+ What are the benefits of Trademark Registration?

Your brand is more than just your name or logo, it’s your most valuable asset. Benefits of registering a trademark include:

  • Stop other people from stealing your business name, logo or even a tagline.
  • Our online application makes registering a trademark fast and easy for everyone.

+ How long is a trademark good for? How long does a trademark last?

A trade mark is initially registered for a period of 10 years in Australia and continues indefinitely as long as the renewal fees are paid every ten years. Registration fees must be paid within 6 months of advertised acceptance.

+ Why is video marketing Important?

Video marketing allows you to boost your business with simple and compelling videos and storyboards.

  • Quickly deliver your message in under 60 seconds
  • Engage your website visitors with compelling stories
  • Give your business a personality which clients can relate to
  • Strengthen the bond with people who visit your website
  • Increase your reach through multiple social media channels
  • Stand out from your competitors with dynamic content

+ What’s the purpose of the video?

Increase sales - Video can have a big impact on your bottom line. A majority of consumers say that video has influenced their decision to buy. So try video on your site and social channels to boost sales.

Drive traffic - Consumers often want to see videos from your business before they click through to your website. A well-placed video can entice your audience to learn more and drive traffic your way.

  • Purchase Option: Most domain name leases have some sort of purchase option (lease option) allowing the lessee to buy the domain name by paying the lessor a predetermined sum.

+ How do I market my business on social media?

The below information and tips was posted by Lexie Lu who is a freelance graphic designer and blogger. Her ideal morning includes some HTML code and a cup of coffee. She writes on Design Roast and can be followed on Twitter @lexieludesigner.

In recent years, social media has gone from a new idea to an absolute must for marketers. Of all the new media marketing platforms, social has most thoroughly turned traditional marketing on its head. With older outbound marketing strategies, messages are sent to potential customers, and communication is one way.

On social media, customers and businesses can directly interact. Both parties can ask each other questions, repost each other’s content and work on forming relationships. Getting started with social media marketing can be intimidating, so here are eight tips for effectively promoting your business on social networks.

  1. Choose the Right Platforms - There is no shortage of social media sites on which to share your content. The number of sites is growing every day. Sharing your content on the right platforms is crucial to your success. When determining which channels to use, you should consider your customers and your business. It’s important that you create accounts on the platforms your target audience uses, so they can easily connect with you. Conduct some research to determine what sites your audience probably uses, and then use them too. You should also consider which sites best fit your products. For a video production company, for example, YouTube is an obvious choice.
  2. Create a Calendar - Scrambling to create posts at the last minute can lead to low-quality content. A lack of organization can lead to repeated posts or a lull in your presence on one of your channels. Creating social media content calendars can help avoid those mistakes and lead to more effective posts. Content calendars also help you create goals and strategies for meeting them, and track your progress toward them. To make a content calendar, use a regular calendar for each social media channel and plan out your posts in advance, complete with hashtags, links, images and other content.
  3. Encourage Engagement - Social media should, of course, be social. That doesn’t only apply to those who use the sites for fun. Businesses need to be interactive, too. In order to take advantage of social capability, you need to encourage interaction. Post content that people want to read, ask questions and like, repost and comment on other users’ posts. Doing research on your audience can help you figure out what they might like.
  4. Don’t Over-Promote - One trap that businesses often fall into is treating social media too much like regular advertising. You don’t want to blatantly promote yourself in every post. You need to create content that people will actually enjoy and want to see. Promoting yourself is okay every once in a while. Some marketers go by the one-in-seven rule, which says that for every one directly promotional post, six others should be content-based. In these other six posts, you could share articles, comment on current events or ask a question. You don’t have to entirely avoid mentioning your brand in these posts; just be careful not to sell too hard.
  5. Share Video - Visual content works well on social media. Video content, especially, is ideal for grabbing people’s attention as well as conveying your personality and passion to your customers. Visual content stands out as people scroll through their social feeds, so they’re more likely to view it and engage with it. It also allows you to say more than you could in a typical post without taking up much room. Create interesting, narrative-driven video in order to get the best reaction.
  6. Address Problems Quickly - Hopefully you receive mostly positive feedback on social media. Occasionally you may encounter someone who is upset, argumentative or has something negative to say about your company. You should carefully monitor mentions of your brand on social channels, so you can catch issues before they escalate. If you spot a problem, engage with the person by publicly apologizing if necessary and offering to solve the problem over a direct message exchange. This way, people who see the post know you were responsive but don’t have to see all the specifics of the issue.
  7. Build a Community - Instead of trying to get as many followers as possible, focus on finding customers who are interested, loyal and engaged. These people are more likely to repost your content, like your posts and become customers. When you build a community around your brand, the people within that community will engage with each other and help to promote your content. You could even try reaching out to exceptionally influential social media users and asking them to help you by reviewing a product or mentioning you in a post.
  8. Provide Value - Perhaps the most important thing you can do on social media is provide value to your followers. Create something that your audience will find useful. It could be something that tells them something they didn’t know before, makes them laugh, and entertains them or anything else that’s beneficial in some way. This aspect of social media is what attracts the right customers to your business, makes people want to follow you on social sites and helps content to spread. Master this, and you’ll be a big step closer to a successful social media marketing campaign.

With nearly 3 billion active users, social media is a potential goldmine of new customers and current patrons who could become repeat customers. Create a good social campaign, and you’ll be able to connect with some of those people and grow your customer base.

+ What are the benefits of social media marketing?

Imagine spending as little as 6 hours a week in order to increase your business's recognition, traffic, and sales with little to no cost. That's right! About 90% of marketers claimed that social media generated immense exposure for their company, and that's only one of its many advantages.

Social networks are now a substantial part of every marketing strategy, and the benefits of using social media are so great that anyone not implementing this cost-effective resource is missing out on a phenomenal marketing opportunity. It's easy to see that social media marketing is a key element for success in marketing and many marketers realize the potential for business growth using the platform. Here are some of the benefits:

  1. Increased Brand Awareness - Social media is one of the most cost-efficient digital marketing methods used to syndicate content and increase your business' visibility.
  2. More Inbound Traffic - Without marketing your business on social media, your inbound traffic is limited to your usual customers. The people familiar with your brand are likely searching for the same keywords you already rank for.
  3. Improved Search Engine Rankings - Although posting on social media might get your business some site traffic, more effort than that is required to see significant success. Search engine optimization is very important for achieving higher page rankings and obtaining traffic to your business website.
  4. Higher Conversion Rates - With increased visibility, your business gains more opportunities for conversion. Every blog post, image, video, or comment may lead viewers to your company's website and increase traffic. Social media marketing allows your business to give a positive impression through a humanization factor.
  5. Better Customer Satisfaction - Social media is a networking and communication platform. Creating a voice for your company through these platforms is important in humanizing your company. Customers appreciate knowing that when they post comments on your pages, they will receive a personalized response rather than an automated message.
  6. Improved Brand Loyalty - One of the main goals of almost all businesses is developing a loyal customer base. Considering that customer satisfaction and brand loyalty typically go hand in hand, it is important to regularly engage with consumers and begin developing a bond with them.
  7. More Brand Authority - Customer satisfaction and brand loyalty both play a part in making your business more authoritative, but it all comes down to communication. When consumers see your company posting on social media, especially replying to customers and posting original content, it makes you appear more credible.
  8. Cost-Effective - Social media marketing is possibly the most cost-efficient part of an advertising strategy. Signing up and creating a profile is free for almost all social networking platforms, and any paid promotions you decide to invest in are a relatively low cost compared to other marketing tactics.
  9. Gain Marketplace Insights - One of the most valuable advantages of social media is marketplace insight. What better way to know the thoughts and needs of your consumers than by directly talking to them? By monitoring the activity on your profiles, you can see customer' interests and opinions that you might not otherwise be aware of if your business didn't have a social media presence.
  10. 10Thought Leadership - Posting insightful and well-written content on your social media is a great way to become an expert and leader in your field. There is no one way to become a thought leader - it requires work that can be supported by online networking tools.

Get Started! It's clear that social media marketing has its advantages, so if your business doesn't already have the appropriate profiles, create them! Fill out your business' information and post some engaging content to begin gaining followers. As mentioned, ask people relevant to your business to "like" and "share" your page to help build your profile. With consistent updating, the right social media marketing strategy will lead to increased traffic, better SEO, higher conversion rates, improved brand loyalty, and much more. There are virtually no reasons not to implement social media into your marketing strategy. Since it is so cost-effective, there is hardly anything to lose. Your competition is most likely already on social media, so don't let them take your potential customers. The sooner you start, the sooner you'll see growth in your business.
