Whether you're an ecommerce owner, service-based business, or both:

Knowing the ins and outs of Consumer Law and Consumer Rights in Australia means you can provide more effective customer service while also being compliant ~

And it's handy when you're shopping online for yourself too 👌🏽

Follow Australian Competition and Consumer Commission
(ACCC) to keep up to date with product safety information, scam + card fraud reports and more.

When a business sells you a product or service that doesn’t meet basic consumer guarantees, it must offer a solution.

They can’t refuse help just because your product is out of warranty or not covered by the warranty terms.

🐾 Don’t roll over – know your consumer rights and get what you pay for: https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/problem-with-a-product-or-service-you-bought/repair-replace-refund-cancel

4. New photos and videos they added to their site are taking forever to load
5. Customers aren't seeing the new menu or page updates, but you can

Thankyou so much for your kind Google Review Kristy 🌈

I'm so thankful for reviews and testimonials from my brilliant clients 🧡
ㅤ
Feedback is important for me to feed forward to improving my communication, services and project management.

So if you're a current or past client, I'd love your honest feedback in a reply email, at my page or my Google Business Profile 🙏🏽

Kristy says:

"As a creative small business owner I knew working with Kira was perfect for me! She created my new logo and implemented a website refresh on my already existing WordPress site.

Wow, what an incredible job she did! I built my website myself and Kira added the aesthetic touches it needed to encapsulate my branding. Kira is so friendly and thorough at explaining everything.

I love how she makes step by step videos showing you how to make the website changes implemented. I find these so helpful! She also set up my Google Search Console and helped with understanding SEO for my website.

Definitely recommend Kira's services to small business owners who need specific help in website / social media design and set up. Thank you Kira!"
