The new  program is starting in Far North Queensland.  In a nutshell, it is a federally funded program that pays for an approved consultant to come and spend some time with you to help you with your online business. This can be to help get you online, or to help you refine and improve your online marketing.

The program is being run in the area by two different organisations, depending on where you are based.

Coastal Areas

For business's on the coast between Cooktown to Mission Beach (Including Cairns and Port Douglas) you can get involved in the program via Whitesource Pty Ltd.

To get the process started - you should register online for the introductory seminar that will be held on March 2nd. I will be speaking at that seminar (both the morning and afternoon sessions). This will help give you all the background details and you will be able to apply for the actual consultations after the seminar.

You can register for the seminar online if you are in these geographic areas.

Tablelands and Gulf-Savannah

For business's based on the tablelands and Gulf-savannah region - please visit the Gulf Savannah Development Corporation - more details will be available on their website soon.
