Start Your Own Business with Support

Free support to start your own business! This suite of services is funded by government to help small and micro business, start ups and people needing help to launch or pivot a business.

We offer Exploring Being My Own Boss Workshops, and the New Enterprise Incentive Scheme for self-employment.

Holmesglen provide services in: Melbourne North East/West, Melbourne South East, Western Melbourne, Canberra and surrounding regional areas, plus South Australia, Adelaide North, Adelaide South, and Murray South East region.

Training, workshops and support is mainly online, with some face to face where indicated.

Our services include access to initial training and development of a commercially viable business plan and 2-year financial projection, a year of free mentoring, monthly business health checks, quarterly viability checks and guidance, and you may choose to also complete a Cert IV in Business if you wish. Eligible participants on Centrelink support may also be able to access a special, non-business income tested Allowance for 39 weeks.

We have specialist services for people from non-English speaking backgrounds, those with hobby concepts they wish to turn into a business, Indigenous business aspirants and we have a particularly focus on those that are unsure if business ownership is possible for them!
