About SBMS

SBMS Experienced Business Mentors are part of the Small Business Mentoring Service. SBMS is an incorporated not-for-profit association. It has been in existence since 1986 when there were just 14 members.  Today there are around 95 Mentors, both male and female, who have the skill and experience to help small businesses.

Our Mentors have diverse and interesting backgrounds and have either owned their own small business or worked in an organisation that has had strong links to small business. They are extremely passionate about the role that small business plays in the economy.  They also acknowledge that it can be difficult, lonely and at times financially worrying running a small business. All our Mentors carry out their Mentoring work on a voluntary basis.

SBMS is proudly supported by the Victorian State Government, the Department of Business Innovation and in particular Small Business Victoria and the Minister for Small Business, the Hon Louise Asher MP
