Starting a business is big. Let's make it simple.
We’ve been helping everyday Aussies start their own cleaning and lawn mowing businesses for over 30 years, and we’ll walk alongside you every step of the way.
Everyone’s in a different stage when they start exploring. Choose the path that feels right for you.
“I’m comparing you to others. Tell me how you’re different.”
“I’m just trying to figure out what this is all about?"
Starting a business can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. When you start a business with James, it’s like getting a full apprenticeship in small business management while you’re actually building your business.
Start Your Own Business - With a Team Behind You
A James business is a small business you own and run yourself, but you're never on your own. We give you all the training, tools, and support you need, so you can focus on building your business — not figuring everything out from scratch.
Getting Started Made Easy
We guide you through the first steps — before training even begins. From registering your business name and getting your ABN, to setting up insurance and bank accounts — we make sure you're ready to hit the ground running.
You get all the equipment you need
No hunting for tools, products, or a vehicle — we provide high-quality equipment so you can start working immediately.
Our 12-week Accelerated Start-Up Program gets you going fast
Designed to build momentum from day one, this program gives you confidence, skills, and a clear path to getting started.
Learn to Run Your Business
Face-to-face and on-the-job training
We teach you step by step how to manage quoting, scheduling, customer service, and every part of running a successful business.
One-on-one business coaching
Your business coach is always there to guide you, answer questions, and help you avoid mistakes.
We bring in customers for you — and teach you how to attract even more
You'll start with leads already coming in, and we'll show you how to attract more, giving you full control over your income.
Freedom, Support & Community
Work for yourself, but not by yourself.
You’ll have the freedom to run your business your way, with the safety net of a network that genuinely cares about your success.
Flexible start with low upfront costs.
Our subscription model lets you begin your business now and pay as you grow, instead of a big one-off investment.
Pride in what you build.
Being part of James isn’t just about starting a business — it’s about creating something that’s yours, making a difference for your customers, and being part of a supportive, values-driven community.
Starting your business with James is accessing a business growth ecosystem. That means every part of what we do is designed to help you grow, fast: practical training, real customers, ongoing support, and the freedom to build your own success. James is your team of experts, helping you every step of the way, as you build something that is truly yours.
