In today's digital age, having a website is not just important – it's essential. Your website is often the first interaction a potential customer has with your business, and it can make or break their decision to do business with you. 

A well-designed website can help you establish credibility, build trust, and attract new customers. It provides you with a platform to showcase your products or services, share your brand story, and engage with your target audience. It also allows you to collect valuable data and insights on your customers, which can help you improve your business strategy and customer experience.

Ivana Katz

When I started my business, I didn't have formal training in web design.

There was no roadmap — just me, a computer, and a stubborn belief that I could figure it out.

The early years were messy.

Money was tight.

The doubts were loud.

And because I didn't have a university degree, I often felt like I had something to prove.

I worked harder than I probably needed to.

Learned faster than I felt comfortable.

And even when clients were happy, I still questioned whether I was doing enough.

There wasn't a single moment when confidence suddenly appeared.

It built slowly — in small, quiet ways.

One finished project at a time.
One returning client.
One referral.

The self-doubt never completely disappeared.

It just got quieter as I learned to work alongside it.

Looking back now, I can see that those years shaped the kind of business owner I became - resourceful and resilient.

And maybe that's the part no one tells you at the beginning: confidence isn't about never doubting yourself - it's about continuing anyway.

Here’s what AI didn’t do:
It didn’t replace me.
It didn’t steal my voice.
It didn’t remove the human from my business.

Here’s what it did do:
It rescued me from blank-page panic.
From endless admin.
From late-night content rewrites.
From trying to hold it all in my head.

That’s the part no one tells you - the relief. The focus. The clarity.

This week’s newsletter is about the fear around AI (especially for creatives) - and why small business owners like you have more to gain than you think.

Wait. You Can Do That? is live now. It’s your shortcut to saving 10–12 hours a week with simple, doable AI workflows. Get it here:

No, AI Won’t Replace You - But It Might Rescue You

When Jordan got his promotion at Red Bull, it felt like life coming full circle in a way I couldn't have planned if I tried.

I was out having lunch with friends when my phone rang, and it was Jordan. You know those moments in life when you remember exactly where you were and what you were doing? This was one of them.

He said, "Mum, I got the job."

And without thinking, the first words that came out of my mouth were, "Oh no!"

I didn't mean it - it just slipped out, because deep down I knew what it meant. It meant he'd be moving to Melbourne.

But I quickly caught myself and told him how proud and happy I was for him. It took everything in me not to cry while we were still on the phone. We talked for a few minutes, I congratulated him again, and when I hung up, the tears came.

That was the moment it really hit me: he was about to spread his wings for real.

Red Bull's slogan is "gives you wings", and here was my son - the same little boy I'd raised on my own, the one I'd built my whole life around - now taking flight in the most literal way.

He was leaving home, chasing his dreams, building a life that was completely his. And as hard as it was to let him go, it also made me realise something beautiful: he didn't just grow up - he grew wings.

Running a small business is already hard enough.

What makes it harder than it needs to be is having to figure everything out from scratch - what to say, where to start, how to structure things, what matters and what doesn't.

That constant decision-making is exhausting.

Over time, I've created a small library of practical guides and templates to make some of that easier - things you can use straight away instead of staring at a blank screen or second-guessing yourself.

If your business feels heavier than it should, this is a good place to start.

If you're doing everything yourself, it can feel like the only way forward is to push harder.

But most of the time, effort isn't the problem.

It's friction.

Too many small decisions.

Too many half-finished thoughts.

Too many things you're carrying around in your head because there's nowhere else for them to live.

That kind of mental load adds up fast.

Not because you're failing - but because running a business this way is exhausting.

And when everything starts to feel messy and heavy, it's usually a sign that something needs tightening - not pushing.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐈 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐃𝐨 𝐈𝐭 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐀𝐧𝐲𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞
Some people talk about hustle like it’s a badge of honour.

I talk about it like it’s something I had to unlearn.

Motherhood taught me how to run a business while being pulled in every direction. How to work late. Show up tired. Stay soft and strong at the same time.

That’s the kind of growth no book prepares you for.

This week’s story is a personal one - about the chaos, the freedom, and the moment I realised I needed to start doing business differently. And it’s why I created "Wait... You Can Do That?" - not just to save time, but to honour your energy.

The guide is ready. Get it here:

The Day I Realised I Couldn’t Do It All Myself Anymore

Most people try to save time in business by working faster.

That usually just creates more pressure.

Real time savings come from removing friction -
the small things that make everything harder than it needs to be.
Explaining your offer over and over.

Manually answering the same questions.

Fixing things that should already be clear.

That's why website structure, content clarity, and practical tools like Al overlap in my work.

There are different ways of solving the same problem: making your business easier to run.

If you've ever thought, "This shouldn't feel this complicated" - you're probably right.

I put together a practical guide that shows how to cut out some of that friction and save 10-12 hours a week.

One of the biggest challenges I see with small business owners is not knowing where things are going wrong - just that they are.

That's why I pay close attention to how quickly issues can be identified and addressed, especially when tech isn't someone's strong point.

This feedback from Sonali perfectly sums up the kind of work I aim to do - recognising problems early and providing clear, practical direction so things don't keep compounding over time.

When your website starts creating more problems than it solves, it's usually a sign it needs a fresh set of eyes.

Most people think saving time in business requires a complete overhaul.

In reality, it's often about removing repetition.

Writing the same things from scratch.

Reformatting content you already have.

Manually organising ideas that already exist.

This is where Al is actually useful — not as a gimmick, but as support.

I put together a practical guide showing where solo business owners typically lose 10-12 hours a week, and how Al can realistically help reduce that without overcomplicating things.

If getting time back sounds appealing, you'll find it here.

When clients tell me the process felt easy, that's the biggest win.

Not because websites are "easy", but because they shouldn't feel overwhelming or painful — especially when you're already running a business.

This kind of feedback reminds me why clarity, communication, and a solid process matter just as much as the final result.

A lot of people think the answer to feeling stretched is to do more.

More tools.

More content.

More effort.

But most of the time, the real fix is simplification.

Clear messaging.

Better structure.

Fewer things requiring your attention.

That's the lens I bring to everything I work on — whether it's a website, content structure, or the systems behind the scenes.

If you've ever thought, "This should be simpler than it is," you're probably right.

A lot of people assume saving time in business requires a full system overhaul.
In reality, it often starts with removing repetition.

Rewriting the same ideas.

Starting from scratch when you already have content.

Manually organising things that already exist.

These are the kinds of tasks Al is actually good at - not replacing you, but supporting how you already work.

I put together a practical guide that shows where solo business owners typically lose 10-12 hours a week, and how Al can realistically help reduce that without turning your business upside down.

If you're curious, you'll find it here.

BM Financial Group

I joined the team at BM Financial to handle all commercial and business loans. In this time I was able to expand my knowledge of all lenders policies and ensure that clients were presented with the best solution based on their individual needs.

Commercial Finance Broker

National Australia Bank

Starting at NAB on the graduate program of 2001 for six intense months, I was exposed to all jobs within the bank from teller, documentation, filing, home loans, business loans and transactional banking. After successfully completing the graduate program I was appointed to Business Banking Officer at Marrickville. 

Climbing the ranks to Credit Analyst, Relationship Manager in Corporate, Business Banking Manager In Custom Business and finally completing my tenure at the bank as Senior Business Banking Manager. 

Ten years came and went, and on ten years and one day, long service leave was taken and I decided to see what else was out there. 

In my last role at nab I was responsible for the management of a portfolio of medium to large sized commercial enterprises with turnover ranging between $10m and $100m+ per annum. Portfolio size was $125m+ in both deposits in lending.

•	Sales/Revenue: The main KPI in this role. To promote the bank’s products through to existing clients, in order to achieve revenue, specialist, lending & deposit targets. Portfolio generated $4m+ in underlying profit per annum. 
•	Maintain and Develop Relationships: with current clients & commercial lending introducers (Brokers, Solicitors, and Accountants). Manage and increase portfolio of introducers through proactive calling, the attendance of industry events and through referrals. Ensure that the relationship with both internal & external clients is developed & nurtured through efficient service and clarity of process & policy.

Senior Business Banking Manager 

Embarking on my entrepreneurial journey at the tender age of 11, I discovered my flair for business by selling avocados harvested from my backyard tree to the local fruit shop. The excitement of filling my backpack with green treasures and making the three-block trek to Bay Street was not just about making a sale; it was the initiation into a world of negotiation and understanding the dynamics of commerce.

While the avocado venture was fruitful, it also taught me valuable lessons. One defining moment occurred when the shop owner proposed paying me less per avocado—an early lesson in the concept of purchasing power. This experience laid the foundation for a business mindset that would evolve and flourish in the years to come.

Transitioning from avocados, I found a new avenue for profit in high school, trading basketball cards. The thrill of strategic trading and turning a profit fueled my passion for business. Post-university, I ventured into the 'real' world, embarking on a diverse career path that traversed a graduate program in business and corporate banking, finance broking within an accountancy firm, and exploring the intricacies of investing. Each experience equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of the nuances of commercial lending.

The realisation dawned on me that my true calling lay on the other side of the table, from the perspective of a business owner. This realisation led to the creation of Peak Capital, a venture dedicated to specialising in Commercial Lending. Our approach is comprehensive; we have access to an extensive network of bank, non-bank, and private options, allowing us to find innovative solutions for even the most challenging loans.

At Peak Capital, our commitment is unwavering. We do what it takes to get the job done, and in the rare instance when we can't, we are transparent about it. Our ethos revolves around direct, honest, and results-oriented interactions.

If you are in need of a commercial loan, or if you have a client seeking financial solutions, and appreciate a direct, honest, and results-driven approach, don't hesitate to reach out.
