Business Boost puts yours in front of them. That means one dedicated feature, real local reach and the backing of a community that shows up for its own.

You’ve built something great. The problem is not enough of the right people know about it yet.
You’re posting to the same followers, paying for ads that strangers scroll straight past and hoping word of mouth kicks in.
What if your business was introduced by a name your ideal customers already know, like and trust?
Hey I’m Laura!
Founder of Wollongong Women and host of our events bringing business owners together across the Illawarra.
I’ve been in business for 10 years and I learnt pretty quickly that business isn’t a solo sport. The women you surround yourself with can accelerate your results.
In my first business as a health and fitness trainer, I loved what I did and built a beautiful community for my clients, but behind the scenes there were days it felt lonely and isolating. And then there was the marketing. Putting myself out there felt so awkward that I avoided it more than I’d like to admit, and I missed out on so many potential new clients because of it.
I thought if I felt like that, there must be other women who do too.
That’s why this exists.
It’s the women to celebrate your wins with and the women to turn to with your business challenges. It’s where talking about your business finally feels natural, because the whole room is cheering you on.
Your next client, collab or business bestie is waiting.
Come find her.
Business Boost is for you if you’re done with:
Being the best kept secret in town
Posting into the void and hearing crickets
Paying for ads that get ignored
Waiting for word of mouth to do the heavy lifting
And ready for:
Your business in front of 6,000+ locals in one hit
Instant credibility from a community they love
More enquiries, bookings and buzz
A local name in your corner, cheering you on
“Wollongong Women is exactly what my local community needs! A safe and welcoming place to meet and connect with like-minded business women. Sometimes being a small business owner can feel lonely, but Laura and Wollongong Women help crush those feelings! I love Laura's passion and encouragement for business women like myself to step out of their comfort zone, and put themselves first.”
