Products and Services
Turn offers direct services that give people the power to do great work. Turn also partners with other organisations with a mission to empower people and build communities.
Training Program
Matchbox empowers jobseekers and micro-businesses to secure employment in the competitive job market through creating smart and creative campaigns and by building employability skills. Participants leave Matchbox equipped with a powerful plan and a customised personal marketing campaign.
The Matchbox program transforms lives and enables job creation and job placement, not only through traditional methods but by reigniting peoples' confidence to self-promote and reactivate personal and business networks.
Community Engagement Project
Backswing projects have three parallel goals. First, to deliver a great outcome of lasting benefit to local communities. Second, to develop the employability skills of each of the participants in the project group. And third, to establish self-functioning networks of people who help each other to do great work long after the Backswing project has been completed.
Backswing projects are about people working together to face challenges, identify their strengths, aim at a sweet spot and follow through with impact.
Market Development
Our Amplifier service enables organisations, community groups and individuals to promote their work with impact by using the right strategies, the right messages and the right tools.
Turn (Australia) collaborates with people, groups and organisations that share a mission to create a fairer community and to improve lives through the power of doing great work.
Turn‘s extensive experience in marketing, advertising and communication has helped secure major projects for clients in the community and not-for-profit sector. Turn is helping organisations to get the work done.
