2 - Why are you letting Australia Post close our post office by Australian Citizens Party

Send us Fan MailTwo businesses can charge the same price today and be on opposite margin trajectories five years from now, purely because of the architecture sitting underneath that number. One gets more profitable as it grows; the other gets squeezed with every new customer. This episode is about designing that architecture on purpose.Mena starts with discounting as a diagnostic: persistent discounting isn't a sales problem but a signal pointing at one of three causes, and J.C. Penney's disastrous 2012 "fair and square" experiment shows why you can't simply switch off years of trained customer behaviour. Stuart then unpacks the traps of unit pricing, the default model most owners fall into without choosing it, from the billable hour that punishes efficiency to the petrol-station race no one wins on quality.Mena lays out the real choice between fixed, tiered and modular pricing (with Australia Post, Canva and IKEA as clean examples), and Stuart explains why scope is the boundary that makes any of them work. Finally, Mena drives home the cost base as a non-negotiable floor, using Porter Davis Homes' collapse under fixed-price contracts as the cautionary tale. Closes with four steps to build your own pricing system. If this episode resonated with you, please leave a rating on your favourite podcast platform.

Robert Barwick and Craig Isherwood expose how Australia's major political parties have used electoral laws, corporate donations and bureaucratic red tape to rig the political game against challengers. They examine the new electoral funding rules, donation caps, party registration requirements and the financial advantages enjoyed by established parties. The discussion also covers the Senate's explosive Australia Post hearing, the campaign to save local post offices, allegations surrounding the AUKUS public inquiry, and a revealing exchange over politicians sharing parliamentary evidence on social media. Plus, some entertaining clips from recent Senate Estimates hearings reveal just how difficult it can be to get straight answers from highly paid public officials.

Raising prices is one of the biggest levers for profit, and the one we fight ourselves hardest on. Every ecommerce business is carrying costs it wasn't two years ago, and if you're not passing them on, your margin shrinks every day.Here's the thing the archive keeps proving: the cost itself rarely upsets customers. Being surprised by it does. When the Australia Post fuel surcharge hit, Seed & Sprout's Rebecca Williams already had the scenarios written, and chose to be completely upfront about it.In this playbook, we cover three things ecommerce operators need to know about raising prices without losing customers:Map your true cost to deliver an order, because a price rise gets argued from one line when the pressure's coming from sixDecide whether the cost is permanent before you decide how to show itTreat price as something you run on a rhythm, not an event you survive once a yearConnect with Rebecca Williams Explore Seed & SproutSubscribe to the Add To Cart newsletter  SMS us to Suggest a Guest Connect with Nathan Bush Join the Add To Cart Community

Robert Barwick and Richard Bardon give Australians a reality check on AUKUS revealing how the nuclear submarine deal not only threatens to bankrupt the country, but turns Perth into a legitimate nuclear target once US tactical nuclear weapons arrive from 2032. Plus: the media blackout on the Citizens Party's role defeating the ASIO Bill, how Australia Post's CEO misled the Senate about bank-at-post closures, and how Wall Street just rewarded a former Al-Qaeda commander with a gold Visa card on the 25th anniversary of 9/11.

கடித சேவையின் எதிர்காலம் மாறிக்கொண்டிருக்கிறது. ஆனால், வீடுகளுக்கு நேரடியாகக் கடிதம் கொண்டுவரும் சேவை தொடரும் என்றும் ஒரு கடிதத்தை அனுப்ப நீங்கள் இன்று செலுத்தும் கட்டணம், வரும் காலத்தில் இரண்டு டொலர்களை எட்டலாம் என்றும் Australia Post நிறுவனத்தின் தலைமை நிர்வாகி Paul Graham, SBS செய்திப்பிரிவினருக்கு அளித்த பேட்டியில் ஓர் எச்சரிக்கையை விடுத்திருக்கிறார். இது குறித்த செய்தியின் பின்னணியை எடுத்து வருகிறார் குலசேகரம் சஞ்சயன்.

Australia Post CEO Paul Graham says "we are in the fight of our lives" as it navigates structural change as letter volumes collapse and fierce parcel competition squeezes margins. SBS On the Money looks at what the transformation means for Australians, including the prospect of a $2 stamp, with Paul Graham, while Zoran Kresovic from Blueberry Markets explains why Nvidia's results helped propel tech stocks and the Australian sharemarket higher.

Australia Post has been caught with a secret plan to shut down and "buyback" thousands of small business post offices across the country, despite the CEO telling a Senate inquiry there was no active closure plan. Elisa Barwick and Robbie Barwick break down the leaked documents, the cost-of-living crisis driving public anger, and international examples (New Zealand, France, Switzerland, Japan) showing how postal banking could save Australia's post office network instead of destroying it. We also give you a full chronology of the indefensible ASIO bill that was guillotined through Parliament last week including a jaw-dropping contrast between Anthony Albanese's fiery 2003 civil liberties speech and his government's 2025 push to supersize the very powers he once condemned. Plus, David Shoebridge's blistering takedown of the "uni party," and how the Coalition and Labor teamed up to ram it through with no scrutiny.

A text message at an airport turned into Australia's biggest retail and eCommerce community in about twelve months: 4,000 members, up to 90 chat groups, and meetups from Ballarat to Dubai. Dean Salakas (The Party People) and Jethro Marks (The Nile) join Ryan Martin (Remarkable Digital) to explain how Retail Community Group actually works, what it deliberately isn't, and how its members had workarounds in place days before Australia Post announced it was suspending shipping to the US.Dean built a two-person family business into Australia's largest party supplies retailer, offering click-and-collect in 1999 and becoming Google's first advertiser in Australia in 2003 at one cent a click, before exiting eighteen months ago. Jethro co-founded The Nile in 2003 and is now building the world's most trusted bookstore, with US and UK launches on the way. Neither of them set out to build a community. They started a WhatsApp group so they could find each other for a drink at Retail Fest, and it had fifty people in it before Dean's plane landed.Join the Whatsapp hereIn this episode they unpack the mechanics behind the growth: why the group split into interest-based channels for AI, cross-border trade, HR and open-to-work; how the "pitch slap" keeps unsolicited selling out; and why a moderated, free, no-pay-to-play space has become the place Australian retailers go first when something breaks. They also share what's coming next, including a public events directory, a vendor portal and peer advisory groups for retailers, plus their honest take on the hardest problem ahead: keeping the magic while scaling to a market Jethro estimates at 100,000 people.If you run an online store, work in retail tech, or you're new to eCommerce and feel like you're doing it alone, this one is a practical guide to plugging into the most collaborative industry in the country.Join The Retail Community HereTopics covered: retail community building, Australian eCommerce, cross-border trade and tariffs, Australia Post US shipping suspension, 3PL and fulfilment, retail conferences and events, AI tools for retail, B2B community moderation, thought leadership for service providers.

Four years ago Elysia Krstevski didn't know what ecommerce was. She'd spent 15 years in musical theatre, working her way from receptionist to co-CEO. Today she runs Mekė Baby, the brand behind Australia's first portable milk warmer, she's in the 2026 Top 50 People in eCommerce, and she's the face of Australia Post's national "Big Boss Energy" campaign.It started with a bad moment. Stuck in a supermarket during Covid, dealing with mastitis and unable to warm expressed milk for her screaming baby, Elysia went looking for a product that didn't exist and decided to build it herself.In this episode, Elysia sits down with Nathan Bush to break down how she created a feeding category from scratch. We get into why she built the brand before she had a product, why she handed prototypes to high-profile mums instead of waiting for perfection, and the wild story of answering a copycat competitor by borrowing Adrian Portelli's jet for a Black Friday film. Elysia is refreshingly direct about the numbers, why she stopped chasing top-line revenue on Meta and moved into Baby Bunting, why she runs her own ad account, and why she'll never hand customer service to AI. Plus building a brand while raising three kids, and launching the Go-Box while she was in labour.Brands and tools mentioned: Mekė Baby, Baby Bunting, The Memo, Australia Post, Shopify, Meta, TikTok, ClaudeThis episode is brought to you with thanks to our partners:

2 - ACP statement on Australia Post by Australian Citizens Party

Jeremy Cordeaux is back in the garage with Pete and Gary, and he's found the government some money. From next April, he explains, 3.2 million Australians over 65 will lose the private health insurance rebate that keeps them out of the public system — a saving of $7.9 billion the government says it simply can't do without. Jeremy begs to differ, and reads Health Minister Mark Butler a list: $23.4 billion for electric-car subsidies, $100 million for a failed Bureau of Meteorology website, $65 million for journalists at billion-dollar media companies, half a billion for a Papua New Guinea rugby league team, $4.2 million for a South Pacific resort stopover for COP delegates. Priorities, Minister. He also takes on the mass citizenship ceremonies in Tony Burke's south-western Sydney — and the four flags new Australians were presented with — asking what picture of national identity that paints. Plus new Victorian Premier Ben Carroll's claim that "integrity will not be optional" (and why Jeremy says he talked himself into a corner), the belated royal commission into the CFMEU, Australia Post pushing a letter toward two dollars, and a run of gloriously useless inventions — the pet rock, diet water, the DVD rewinder. And this day in history: the World Wide Web, Hiroshima, Big Ben, and the world's oldest tree, accidentally cut down.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recorded live from The Rose Bowl Stadium. Mexico squeezes out a 1-0 victory over The Socceroos.

In this episode of Building Doors, host Lauren Karan sits down with Daryl Sadgrove, a leader who has worked across healthcare, telecommunications, e-commerce, logistics, education, and professional services before joining Struber, a business focused on unlocking human potential in infrastructure. Daryl brings a rare cross sector lens to one of the industry's most stubborn challenges: flatlining productivity.From his time at Telstra under David Thodey through to his current role as CEO of Struber, Daryl reveals what actually creates momentum in large organizations. He challenges the belief that AI is a magic bullet, warning that accelerating an inefficient model only makes things worse, faster.Daryl also shares a powerful sliding doors moment from his time at Australia Post during COVID, when a reactive fear based decision could have led to mass layoffs, but curiosity and analysis unlocked 20% year on year growth. He makes the case that infrastructure's real constraints aren't technical, they are human. And he explains why leaders must supercharge their people with AI, not replace them.Tune in for a thought provoking conversation on productivity, legacy, and the future of infrastructure leadership.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Building Momentum in Large Organizations:How strategic clarity from the top creates a “tsunami” of alignmentWhy leaders need to repeat strategy until they are sick of it, at least seven times via different channelsThe power of hyper effective meetings: narrow focus, clear outcomes, and the right people onlyThe Productivity Paradox in Infrastructure:Why infrastructure productivity is 2% below 1990 levels despite the internet, mobile phones, and AIHow communication, collaboration, and culture are the three biggest constraints, according to Infrastructure AustraliaThe danger of treating “soft skills” as a nice to have when they unlock millions in ROIAI as a Leadership Opportunity, Not a Shortcut: Why AI can make bad systems, bad data, and bad culture worse, fasterThe difference between using AI to replace people versus supercharging themA real life case study: a new hire in her second week building an AI powered infrastructure project pipeline that blew Daryl's mindThe Sliding Doors Moment at Australia Post During COVID: How fear nearly led to 10,000 layoffs and why pausing to question assumptions changed everythingThe power of internal research, curiosity, and reframing risk as opportunityWhy the “best case scenario” of 50% growth became reality, not the worst caseAI, Human Connection, and the Future of Work: Why humans will still deliver infrastructure for decades (10,000 people on a job site is not going away)How to use AI to accelerate your own voice, not replace itThe two business models: cut staff and gain 50% productivity OR supercharge everyone and gain 300%Legacy, Leadership, and Being Present: Why Daryl's legacy is translating solutions across industry silosThe importance of being truly home when you are home, with family, not just in bodyKey Quotes from Daryl Sadgrove:“Communication, collaboration, and culture are the biggest constraints holding projects back.”“You don't need everyone on the bus. You need critical mass.”“If you're not sick of repeating the strategy, you probably haven't communicated it enough.”“AI can make bad systems worse faster.”“The businesses that win with AI will be the ones that supercharge people, not replace them.”“People are craving human connection more than ever.”“Leadership clarity matters exponentially more in the AI era.”“The future belongs to organizations that unlock human potential.”“Infrastructure productivity is still sitting below where it was in 1990.”About Our Guest:Daryl Sadgrove is a leader who has worked across healthcare, telecommunications (Telstra), e-commerce, logistics, education, and professional services before joining Struber, a business focused on unlocking the human constraints in infrastructure. He has seen what works in high performing organizations and what does not. A former GM of Innovation at Telstra, a musician, and a golfer in training, Daryl brings cross-sector wisdom, strategic clarity, and a deep belief that people, not technology, are the real accelerators.About Your Host:Lauren Karan, founder of Karan & Co. and host of Building Doors, is dedicated to helping professionals unlock their potential.

Send us a voicemail to mark Let Me Sum Up's upcoming 100th Episode! Your friendly neighbourhood climate and energy podcast of record is about to clock up its 100th episode! Global VP for Marketing and Extortion kindly requests Summeruppers to send us a voicemail with your questions for LMSU's intrepid hosts or favourite anecdotes from listening to the pod. All contributions welcome! — In Episode XII of Global Energy Crisis Corner the current fuel crisis might have slipped off the radar of everyday Australians because, well, it's all been Very Much Under Control And Nothing To See Here Except Higher Than Pre-Crisis Domestic Fuel Reserves. That doesn't stop your tired, but resilient-in-our-nerdery intrepid hosts from another serving of what-is-actually-going-on-out-there chat! The latest IEA Oil Market Report makes it clear things are still VERY BAD but the impacts have been softened by countries drawing down on their domestic reserves - particularly China. But how much longer can this last? And how is this being experienced outside rich countries like Australia that can afford to pay extra to bolster imports? This article in the Economist does a good job outlining the impacts across Asia. Buckle up for Episode XIII folks. Our main course Your intrepid hosts dive out of the fire and into the frying pan to dissect ‘Power Flexible AI Factories: A UK-First Demonsration of Grid-Responsive AI Infrastructure', a paper from Chris Williams et al and supported by Emerald AI, Electric Power Research Institute, the UK's National Grid and Nebius. So what does BIG AI think the solution is to managing the growth of power-hungry data centres across the globe?  Unsurprisingly this paper is optimistic on the potential for data centres to operate in practice as a form of demand response, to smooth peak demand around significant events (tea kettle breaks for UEFA matches, anyone?) and reduce power consumption by up to 40%. The trial documented in the paper provides some real cause for optimism and throws out some suggestions for reform, but bigger trials and key questions - like who pays for the flex? And how about that water consumption? - still need grappling with.  One more things Tennant's One More Thing is: a techno-optimist double delight! CATL deal for 60 GWh sodium-ion batteries for grid storage shows sodium is here and lithium constraints aren't going to be a problem AND Fervo IPO - geothermal startup raises US$1.89b and market values it at $10b+ - they will have the money to get their first 500MW plant up and running this year (Cape Station, Utah). Frankie's One More Thing is: a sneaky peak into LMSU's post Budget analysis to alert folks to a tantalising reference to the Government's work on a ‘market measure' to drive demand for new Australian LCLF production (page 12 of BP1 to be precise). Watch this space! Luke's One More Thing is: some electrification optimism percolating around the country - from the $40m funding in the Budget to help electrify Australia Post's operations to Incat in Tasmania taking their ferries all electric! LMSU also heartily commends to Summerupperers the book ‘Power, Prosperity and Planet: Climate and Energy Policy For All' from friend of the pod, Thom Woodroofe! And that's it for now, Summerupperers. There is now a one-stop-shop for all your LMSU needs: head to letmesumup.net to support us on Patreon, procure merch, find back episodes, and leave us a voicemail!

Most e-commerce founders see the fuel crisis in the news and think it's someone else's problem. But if you're shipping products right now, it's already showing up in your bills — and if you're still running last year's shipping model, you're bleeding margin without realising it. Here's the problem: this isn't one cost squeeze. It's three hitting at the same time — carrier rate hikes, fuel surcharges, and geopolitical disruption — and the effective rate increase for most e-com brands right now is sitting between 8 and 12%. In this episode, I walk you through the four moves I'd make right now to protect your margins, from rebuilding your AOV strategy around your new shipping threshold to the packaging audit most founders never think to run. Here's what you'll take away: The actual numbers: what USPS, UPS, FedEx, Amazon, and Australia Post surcharges mean for your cost per order right now How to use the threshold gap strategy to raise your free shipping threshold without killing conversion Why product bundling done right can lift AOV by 30 to 70% — and the real-world example of how a sleep tape brand is doing it with digital add-ons When to seriously consider switching to a 3PL — and the volume crossover point that makes it a no-brainer The dim weight formula and why most brands are literally paying to ship air Why nearly 50% of cart abandonment comes down to surprise shipping costs — and how radical transparency fixes it If you're absorbing these cost increases without a plan, this episode will show you exactly where to start — and how the brands that come out ahead during downturns are already thinking about this differently. If you're loving this solo series, I'd love to hear your feedback. Email me directly at nathan@foundr.com — I read every reply. Hope you enjoy it. WANT TO GROW YOUR BRAND WITH META ADS?

Everyone in Australian retail right now is having one of two conversations: "it's quiet" or "what sale should we run next?" Our clients are having neither. They're up year-on-year. They're not discounting heavily. And they're not throwing more ad spend at the problem. In this episode, Catherine Langman unpacks exactly what the premium brands quietly winning in 2026 are doing differently – and why the Australian economy isn't what's killing premium brands. The middle-ground mimicry is. Drawing on fresh 2026 data from NAB, Australia Post, Deloitte, emarketer, and Shopify – plus one anonymised case study of a retailer client up 32% year-on-year without a single flash sale – Catherine makes both the commercial and the emotional case for holding the line when the whole market is running the opposite direction. In this episode: Why the middle ground is the most dangerous position in Australian eCommerce right now What the data says about premium buyers in a downturn (counterintuitive, and important) The anonymised case study: a retailer up 32% YoY while her competitors spiral Why tactical foundations without storytelling don't convert the customer you actually want The four foundational layers the winning brands are investing in instead The emotional cost of holding the line – and permission to feel it   If you're tired of being told "just run another sale," this one's for you.
