For independent service providers

You know how to do the work.
We set up the business around it.

Not another template, software bundle or list of things for you to set up. Your domain, email, calendar, invoicing, laptop and essential accounts are configured as one system and handed over ready to use.

$2,995 including GSTComplete setup. Ongoing third-party subscriptions are separate.

Everything is signed up in your name. You own and control the domain, accounts and business information.

Why choose Business in a Box?

Because nobody else takes responsibility for the gaps between all the pieces.

Your domain provider handles the domain. Your software provider supplies software. The laptop shop sells the laptop. An adviser may tell you what you should do. You are still left to make it all work together.

The difference

We finish the setup.

One person works across your business identity, communication, administration, devices and accounts, configuring them around the service you actually provide.

The result is not a recommendation. It is a connected operating system, with the domain, subscriptions and accounts signed up in your name—not ours. It is explained to you and left under your control.

Instead of

A course or checklist

You are not sent away with more work to complete.

Instead of

Disconnected suppliers

The important pieces are configured to operate together.

Instead of

A system held in the provider’s name

Your domain, subscriptions and accounts are signed up in your name. You retain ownership and control.

Local, experienced and accountable

You deal directly with the person building your system.

Business in a Box is delivered by Allen Wade, MBA (Finance), from Somerton Park in Adelaide, South Australia. This is not an overseas setup service or a hand-off to an anonymous support desk.

Allen brings more than 20 years of experience across business communications, account management, software implementation, networking and cloud systems. He runs his own service business and has configured practical working systems for other independent operators.

The focus is practical: what needs to connect, what you need to control, and what must keep working after handover.

The complete setup

What is included

Each system is configured around the way your business actually needs to operate.

01

Professional identity

Your domain and professional email are signed up in your name or your business’s name — not ours.

02

Business-ready laptop

A suitable laptop configured around your work, accounts and everyday business tasks.

03

Enquiries and appointments

A clear way to respond to customers, arrange work and keep commitments visible.

04

Quoting and invoicing

The right invoicing system connected and configured so your paperwork looks credible.

05

Accounts and security

Your core business accounts are established in your name, with ownership, recovery and continuity in mind.

06

Guided handover

We work through the completed system with you so you know what is there and how to use it.

Practical AI assistance

A small business support desk, configured around the work you do.

Business in a Box can include purpose-built AI assistants that help turn spoken explanations, scattered notes and difficult situations into useful business drafts. You remain the decision-maker: every output is reviewed by you before it becomes a customer message or business record.

01

Job Wrap-Up Writer

Talk through what happened on a job or service visit. It turns the information into a clear work summary that can be reviewed and attached to an invoice or sent to the customer.

02

Customer Reply Assistant

Organises the situation and drafts a clear, professional response to an enquiry, update request or everyday customer question.

03

Complaint Response Assistant

Helps separate facts from emotion, identify possible ways forward and prepare a calm draft response for you to review before sending.

04

Business Writer

Turns rough notes, messages and ideas into useful business emails, service descriptions, invoice notes, terms drafts and other working documents.

05

Practical Business Assistant

Provides step-by-step prompts when you are unsure what to do next, what information to gather or which questions to ask a professional adviser.

AI assistants organise information and prepare drafts. Outputs may be incomplete or incorrect and must be reviewed before they are used, stored or sent. They do not replace legal, accounting, tax, financial, regulatory or other professional advice. Do not enter confidential, sensitive or third-party information unless you have authority to use it.

Before you apply

Do you qualify for Business in a Box?

This is for people who are ready to operate a real independent service business—not people looking only for an idea. The goal is a clean operating setup around your existing ABN, with separate business banking and newly configured software. Existing records that must be retained are preserved. Tick each statement that is true for you.

A clear decision before payment

How it works

You speak with Allen before deciding whether to proceed. The fit call comes first; the invoice comes only after the scope and price are clear.

Email Allen your contact details, ABN, intended service and the part of your current setup that is getting in the way.

2

Have a quick fit call

Allen contacts you personally to discuss what you want to achieve, what you already have and whether Business in a Box is suitable.

3

Receive a clear proposal

If the setup fits, Allen confirms what is included, the $2,995 including GST price, any separate subscriptions and the expected process.

4

Decide whether to proceed

There is no obligation following the call. You decide whether the complete setup suits you and what you are trying to achieve.

5

Invoice and setup

If you choose to proceed, Allen sends the invoice. Work begins after payment and the required information has been received.
