While still navigating a lot of uncertainty and change, many small businesses are planning how getting back to business will work for them going forward.
Whether you’ve had to change how you operate a little, or a lot, you can find the support your business needs from our 50+ program partners, plus, you can earn Qantas Points for your business in the process to ensure you get the most out of your spend as your business finds its new normal.
Getting back in the office
With stay at home directions easing in some states and territories and many beginning to prepare on returning to the workplace, cleanliness is an absolute must for businesses transitioning back to the office or shop front.
Since you may have been out of the office for a while, it may be a good idea to relook at your suppliers for essentials like energy to make sure you’re on the right plan for your new needs. If you’re in eligible areas of ACT, NSW, VIC, SA or QLD your business can power up your points balance with Red Energy when getting back in the office. Right now you can earn 10,000 bonus Qantas Points on electricity and 5,000 bonus Qantas Points* on gas for signing up to a Qantas Red Business Saver plan*.
Getting back on the road
For businesses that are getting back out on the road, whether a single vehicle or a whole fleet, make sure you can earn points on the expenses you pay along the way.
The BP Plus fuel card allows you to consolidate all your fuel expenses into one simple account. Pay your monthly statement and earn Qantas Points on your fuel spend*. Plus, you can access fuel discounts as well as reporting tools to track spend from your vehicles on the road.
Another essential for those on the road is roadside assistance, and with The NRMA you can earn 4 Qantas Points per $1 spent on all business plans*. There’s cover for all types of businesses, including passenger vehicles, light commercial and heavy commercial vehicles.
Earn when you hire - only need a vehicle every now and then? Or need to hire specialist trucks and vans for jobs? Then hiring through Avis or Budget is another great way to earn points for your business. Both providers have over 200 locations domestically each, helping you go wherever your business takes you.
You’ll earn 4 Qantas Points per $1 spent for your business, on top of the 4 points per $1 spent the individual will earn as a Qantas Frequent Flyer*.
Getting your business back out there
Recent times have demonstrated how important having a digital presence can be for small businesses. With COVID-19 seeing us spending an increasing amount of time online, it’s important to get your business out there when it comes to digital advertising, as well as having a well hosted website.
Your business can also be rewarded with Qantas Points on eligible regional radio, digital and TV advertising campaigns with SCA. SCA's network reaches over 2 million regional Australians every week across television, radio and digital channels.
