“It is through the NEIS program, and studying a Cert IV in New Small Business that I commenced in October 2016 that has helped and guided me with the steps to help me work towards achieving success by creating a business plan that is realistic.”
- Suzanne Cooney, SCPT Health and Wellness
“The success I am having at present, through the sale of properties in Scullin, Jerangle (NSW) and Aranda, can be traced back to the fortnightly meetings with other NEIS member businesses. Our ability to keep ourselves motivated and sound out new ideas. Don’t be afraid to search out like minded business people. When we all succeed together, we can grow together.”
