Big News: Direction Staffing Solutions is Here! 🍾

We’ve been hard at work behind the scenes, and it's time to let you in on something EPIC.

Introducing... Direction Staffing Solutions.

Every day, I talk to business owners who are burnt out...not because they’re short on work, but because they’re short on talent. Some struggle to find Awesome staff; others can’t find any staff at all.

Despite having all the modern recruitment tools, or even going with the old "mate of a mate" approach, finding the right person still feels like a never-ending task.

Through a heap of conversations, we've identified the key pain points: Admin, Marketing, and Finance (accounting, bookkeeping, all the number-crunching stuff). If businesses could fill these roles with the right people, they'd free up huge chunks of time...not just for on the tools work but for growing their business and enjoying life. It’s all about work-life integration, a concept I dive deep into in my book Awesome Business, Awesome Life.

So, we’re stepping in to fix this. Locally and offshore.

How will it work?

It starts with really understanding what you need.

That’s right. A recruitment business that doesn’t just throw resumes at you and hope something sticks, but takes the time to understand your specific needs. No "off-the-shelf" hires here.

With over 35 staff recruited and employed in Australia over the years, plus a decade of experience building a global offshore team, we’ve learned a thing or two about finding the right fit. Now, we’re bringing those skills to you.

Focus David, Focus 🤣 .. let me get back to you.

If you need a superstar admin sitting in your office, we’ve got you.

If you're ready to explore offshore options, we can help there too. You can even start with just 16 hours a week—high-quality help for all the tasks weighing you down. And I’ve personally interviewed a host of fantastic, experienced candidates in the last two weeks who are ready to jump in.

The beauty of offering both local and offshore options? We can match you with exactly what you need, without overpromising and underdelivering.

Here’s the catch…

I don’t want our clients to feel like just another number. So, to keep things personal and effective, I’m limiting our work to just 6 clients in the next 12 months.

I’ll be personally involved in your recruitment process—no “set and forget” here.

What happens when we hit 6? The doors close. Those inside will have exclusive access to additional team members. Everyone else? You’ll have to wait until Phase 2.

If you want in, message us below to see if you qualify for a Phase 1 spot.

Here’s to the next chapter of business success for both of us!

Check this out. I came scross an AI video creator software and thought i’d give it a go.

I uploaded a short extract from one of my podcasts and it gave me this.

What do you think? Who would you prefer to watch… the artificial Direction employee or me?

Retirement may be closer than I thought lol

We have all heard of AI by now, including how it is going to replace us and mean the end of our work as we know it. Yeah, OK, but there has to be the human

The ringing of the bell....Why do we do it?

Many years ago, a former business coach introduced us to celebrating our wins by ringing a bell every time we take on a new client.

Over the years we have extended it to a few other "Wins", but it remains part of our Team culture.

It's important that our team understand the key drivers for our business success and feel part of our growth. We are all a part of it.

In addition to the bell, we celebrate milestones in our business by giving to vital causes linked to one of the United Nations Global goals - Education.

My strong belief is that the largest part of what we do as a business is educating business owners to create AWESOME businesses and AWESOME lives.

It's a much larger impact than just crunching numbers, having meetings and churning out tax returns.

I'm also of the belief that our impact is far bigger than just our own backyard. The more we can help educate on a global scale, the more we can play our part in creating a world with greater opportunities for all.

So today we ring the bell again, and as a result provide 2 more days of vocational and college education to women in the Philippines.
