As the festive season sneaks up on us, we take a look at the year in review with regular economist, Professor Neville Norman. Neville Christie examines innovation in business and how to bring new ideas to market without going broke in the process.

Also this month, we ask work health and safety expert Jayme Smith of Excite Safety Training what it means to be WHS compliant. Tax expert Michael Jones of Cummings Flavel McCormack uncovers a tax incentive to help pay your research and development bills. Darryl Hardidge of SAGUITY returns to Business Essentials this month with more advice on delivering a better client experience.

We speak with Amanda Anderson on what to think about when negotiating a lease with landlords. We learn from Peter Baines that we can do better by engaging more closely with charities and not-for-profits. Our regular stock expert, Elio D’Amato, explores the impact of the current weak Aussie dollar on the sharemarket.

And we finish the program with practical tips from Robert Coorey, author of Feed a Starving Crowd, on how to make more sales online.
