Running a business is basically Thanksgiving prep on repeat. Stick with me here... First, you’ve got the planning stage—that’s when you confidently think, ‘This will be easy.’ Then comes the shopping stage—which is like collecting all the tools and resources you think you need, only to realize you forgot something crucial [like...uh, the turkey]. 🙈 Next up, the day-of chaos—aka putting out fires while trying to smile for the guests (or clients). Oh, and let’s not forget the aftermath—where you’ve got a kitchen full of dishes and a business full of emails to clean up. Whether it’s a holiday feast or managing a growing business, we all know things don’t always go as planned. But hey, with a little help and some good systems [aka meal prep or a solid CRM], you can make it through without too many burnt pies—or missed deadlines. So here’s to the business owners out there hustling like it’s Thanksgiving every day! What's your favorite part of Thanksgiving or your embarrassing Thanksgiving prep fail that you can finally laugh at? 😆 Drop it in the comments and let’s laugh about it together! #gratitude #smallbusiness #support

🎄 The Gift of Time 🎄 What’s the one thing every busy tradie really wants this Christmas? No, not forty thousand elves to handle the load (though wouldn’t that be nice?). It’s time to knock off early, fire up the barbecue, and enjoy the sunshine with your family. It's time to buy an actual gift for your partner (instead of another Bunnings voucher). It's time to enjoy the season without worrying about quotes, invoices, or schedules piling up. That’s where we come in. At Growth Advantage, we love our tradies and have developed a whole package to make their life easier! At this time of year, we are here to take care of the details while you take a break. Whether it’s chasing suppliers, managing bookings, or staying on top of admin, we’re the quiet helpers keeping your business running smoothly. And don’t stress—we’ll be taking a short break on public holidays, but our message machine will be on. Anything urgent? We’ll jump on it first thing the next day. This year, give yourself the gift of time: less stress, more sunshine, and more moments that matter. You’ve worked hard—we’re here to make the season easier for you. ✨ Growth Advantage: We’ve got your back (especially if you bring us a mince pie. A nice one. Not from a supermarket) #TradieSupport #SmallBusinessAustralia #ChristmasTime #GrowthAdvantage #AussieTradies #TimeWellSpent #StressFreeChristmas

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, irritated, or frustrated this holiday season, you’re going to find the second installment of your Merry Toolkit very helpful! Here’s how it works: P = Prioritize Focus on what truly matters. Ask yourself: What do you want this season to feel like? For me, it’s cozy, calm, and intentional. M = Minimize Cut the excess. Fewer gifts, fewer events, fewer cookies—it’s about creating spaciousness to enjoy the moments that matter. S = Systemize Make life easier with systems! Buy cookies instead of baking, automate holiday cards, or simplify gift-giving. It’s all about reducing stress so you can lead your holidays like a pace car, not a race car. What will you prioritize, minimize, or systemize this year? Let me know below! #HolidaySurvival #CoachingTips #HolidayHelp #HolidayToolkit #WhenYouLead #Coaching #Consulting

Every holiday season, my family has a little tradition. We set out a container of snacks and a cooler filled with drinks for delivery drivers. It's simple, but it radiates warmth. The best part of it is how it has become one of our kids' favorite traditions. Every night, they eagerly gather around to watch the doorbell video footage. Seeing the drivers stop by, hearing them talk to the camera, say thank you, or just acknowledge the act of kindness brings so much joy to them. They light up with excitement when we discuss Thanksgiving plans, immediately mentioning this tradition of setting out treats. They love picking out the snacks and drinks, a job they take very seriously because, let's be honest, the leftovers are pretty appealing too. I adore their enthusiasm—not just for the tasty treats or the holiday cheer—but for the genuine feedback from people. When a delivery driver takes a moment to smile or speak to the camera, it makes their day. And if someone passes by without grabbing a snack or drink, they get busy figuring out why. Their curiosity and problem-solving skills shine. It's amazing how such a small gesture can create lasting memories. This tradition has taught my kids the true essence of kindness and has sparked countless conversations about empathy and gratitude. It's those simple acts and connections that make the holiday season truly magical. What traditions does your family have? #HolidayTraditions #ActsOfKindness #GratitudeMatters
