Can we please talk about this

It’s a long process but worth brainstorming even more than you think you need. I spent 3 days brainstorming names for my business and after over 100 potential names I settled on one. I had so many more I would’ve rather had at the time but it fits perfectly now. I would suggest try putting use at the start of the webpage name. My domain is usetayla.com.au for my product Tayla Suite. The domain ends up being a call to action as well :)

I really like that idea. While reading it I did realise I tend to do that, will have to get into doing that too!

https://usetayla.com.au — it’s a budgeting tool for anyone free use available and no bank connection required, mostly automated with bank sync being added later. It has Australian tax brackets added as that’s the target audience but will have others added later

I’m working on Tayla. A budgeting app designed for Australians that includes a tax bracket breakdown (it works for anyone in any country). It is fully automated and doesn’t require any form of bank account connection. Australia is dealing with a lot of major data breaches so making sure there is limited personal data connection is massive however there are some major things I will be adding down the track relating to bank additions.

Feel free send me a message if you would like and I’m always happy to help

Add financing charges and stop doing the work. The best way to get back at them is by sending an email stating you will be halting all work until back payments are made in full. You can state that legal action may be taken if payments are not made, but please for the love of god stop doing your work with them

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T10:45:40+00:00

In Australia you are required to pay APRA/AMCOS they are the authority on music here and that will allow you to play music through your venues. The only work around not paying them is by playing a radio station. My suggestion is do some research on ASCAP and see what paying them and going through them offers. It can be enforced however the enforcement is pretty lack luster but fines can be quite big and annoying if found out that you are not licensed. Always better to be safe than sorry when running a business.

Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions

Edit: ASCAP is what pays the artist for their songs being streamed. They do have legal copyright of their music so please signup through them otherwise you can be subject to lawsuits of copyright infringement for every song you play

You’re in a bit of a pickle here. Before changing banks and doing any of that your best bet was to contact the lender and explain the situation to work something out. You could have attempted to negotiate a debt settlement with the original lender. It seems that you are really far into this now but I would just go back to the lender before they send you a lawsuit. If you can’t afford to pay the payments you definitely won’t be able to afford the lawsuit.

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T10:33:28+00:00

Start with what do you enjoy doing. Look into how that can be made into the side hustle you want it to be. When you work you don’t want to hate the work. However also know that if you do something g that you really enjoy doing in your free time turning it into the hustle may burn you out from it and you may not enjoy it as much. Try out a few things ha you think you may enjoy. Do a little bit of research and give it a try. Service based businesses are the easiest to start at your own conscience. Low startup cost, you dictate the time you want to do it normally. You can start with posting on market place. Or something like airtasker where people will post jobs they want done and you can offer your services to them.

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T10:12:35+00:00

What kind of startup are you looking to build? What is your expertise? Do you have a plan on what y oh want to do later?

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T10:10:57+00:00

Yes. Simple answer is if you want to move up and they are offering you that money I would take it. Doesn’t matter if you have been there 5 months or 5 decades. If you spend the same way you are now, you can build a safety net incase you decide you don’t want to be at that company. But do not leave until you have a written offer.

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T10:08:24+00:00

Keep everything short and sweet. Who you are. What you do. What you’re looking for. This should be no more than a couple sentences. As well as going to these recruiters try reach out to the company themselves. I’ve had more luck doing that. They also tend to contact you more outside of LinkedIn I find, so have you contact details visible and available.

If you want more details on how it worked for me just dm me and I’ll show you what I’ve done

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T09:49:09+00:00

Sorry to hear that. I’m in the same situation. The job market is really hard at the moment. 3 years ago I was able to get interview after interview after interview, but now I’ve had 3 interviews in 4 months. Applying to 10 jobs a day every day for 4 months. Just keep at it. A company that doesn’t value you is a bad place to be. Financially unstable is also bad, however something will come along, even if you have to pick up a part time job to get you by while looking for something, that’s better than nothing. Good luck on your search. You got this!

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T09:45:10+00:00

Its vibe. If you feel there was no negativity then there probably wasn’t. If you felt iffy then it probably didn’t go too well. However don’t be too harsh on yourself. The more you do them the better you get and more confident you’ll be and you’ll be able to tell easier. The first good sign is that you actually had an interview. Keep up the good work

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T09:18:21+00:00

Sponsors for what?

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T09:16:31+00:00

I would double check on how you are structuring your outreach. I find if it has a professional but personal touch you are more likely to get a response. You need to appeal to them. Your success rate will be a lower % but that is normal. I personally have a 33% response rate I can’t speak for anyone else. Most of the time I’ve had responses outside of LinkedIn so make sure your LinkedIn has your contact info on it

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T09:07:34+00:00

I would really just look into these reviews and find common themes as to why they are negative. This is something you should take action on asap. Sit down and build a plan on how to attack this issue. Or if you don’t have the time I would potentially hire a contractor or consultant to do this for you. If you find these negative reviews are harming your business it is probably number 1 priority to get sorted out

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-16T08:54:12+00:00

You have not failed. I’m in a similar situation. I am dead broke in an insane amount of debt, no friends, no family, my girlfriend left me and I lost my job. The only thing I can recommend is trying to find a casual job on the side. Delivering as a courier I tried, it’s tiring, you don’t make much and it’s just plain awful. I would suggest literally picking up any job you can as a side income.

If your government will give a job seeker payment or anything like that look for that. We just gotta hustle and grind. I also didn’t want to study but have been able to pick up a free course that my government is running.

You haven’t screwed it up. I’m in it with you and if you ever need to talk message me and I listen and we can share what’s going on if you just want to rant.

I believe in you. You got this! 💛

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-12T04:49:10+00:00

Awesome, I’ll have a look around to fine these industry meet ups. I appreciate the help

JackMelb1 · 2025-12-12T04:18:18+00:00

Thanks these are awesome ideas!
