When HR gets crazy

ChattyG is not your HR manager.

You’ve got a slightly unhinged staff issue sitting on your desk. Maybe someone’s underperforming. Maybe you’re not sure whether your pay rates are right. Maybe someone’s been off sick for weeks and you don’t know what you can legally do next. Or maybe the business has grown, but HR is still running on a handshake, an old contract, and hope.

You know guessing coupled with using ChatGPT and google is risky.
But you don’t need an expensive retainer, another online resource, or worse a consultant who gives shitty advice while the invoices keep coming.
You need a straight answer from someone who knows HR and understands small business.

A real HR expert to call. Not another portal to search.

Book a 15-minute call, explain what’s happening, get real guidance on the next step. No bullshit. No risk police. No generic scripts copied off the internet. No being bounced around a call centre. Just clear, useful HR advice from a team that’s actually on your side. 

Ask us anything. Here’s what members actually call about.

If you’ve asked yourself any of these in the last six months, that’s a membership call  and what you’ll receive is a clear answer in 15 minutes.

“How should I manage this tricky performance issue?
“Are we paying this employee correctly?
“What can I do about ongoing absenteeism?
“What are my obligations under Fair Work?
“How do I handle  termination in probation or misconduct?
“Is this contract still lawful and designed for me?
Built for growing businesses

For owners, directors and office managers running teams of 5–30 people.

Ideal for businesses that have outgrown informal HR but don’t yet need to hire internally, or pay for a full outsourced HR service.

This is a great fit if

  • You’re carrying the weight of managing HR alongside your 10 other jobs
  • Your business is growing and people noise is starting to get louder
  • You want someone to sanity-check decisions before you act
  • You need practical advice, not a legal lecture or run down of all the risks
  • You’ve tried outsourced HR before and felt like they were not on your side and gave you no value
  • You want support you can use when you actually need it

Probably not the right fit if

  • You need someone to manage every HR process for you
  • You want full-service outsourced HR
  • You need urgent legal representation
  • Your business employs more than 40 people and you need something more high-touch
  • You want someone else to run every employee conversation

That doesn’t mean we can’t help one of our HR retainers or fixed-fee services may be a better fit.

Independently verified on Google – 4.8 from 43 member reviews.

Members value the quick access to experts. They talk about having someone to call when shit gets real, a quick spit ball with someone on their side, solving little problems before they turn into big ones.

The 15-minute expert calls help us solve small HR issues quickly, before they become bigger ones. We get practical advice that meets us at our level and helps us do the right thing, not just the legally correct thing.

We had been paying for outsourced HR without getting enough value. With HR Gurus, we can choose when and how we use the support, so we’re not paying for services we don’t need.

Before joining, I was relying on myself to interpret awards and keep our contracts right. Now we have Shelley to call with all kinds of questions. It feels like having our own outsourced HR consultant.

The biggest relief is having someone at the end of the phone or email for a quick sanity check. It’s reassuring to have an HR expert to bounce ideas off when you’re not sure what to do.

HR Gurus and Emily are trusted advisors to our business, and have been an amazing partner. The surprising thing is that we’re yet to meet in person, yet they’ve helped us navigate through the pros and cons of startup life.

An unfair dismissal claim can cost up to $95,000 in compensation, and that’s before legal fees, before your time, before the damage to your sanity. Membership is $999. One phone call before you act is usually all it takes to avoid the whole thing.
Lock in your rate today. Every member who joins after you locks in at whatever we’re charging then your $999 stays yours for as long as you’re a member.
Your membership renews automatically every 12 months at your locked annual rate unless you cancel at least seven days before renewal.
The best time to get HR support?

Before the next people issue lands.

The second-best time is when one already has. Small HR issues rarely get easier after you sit on them, in fear of not knowing what to do. If there’s already a people problem keeping you awake at night, get proper guidance before it turns into a bigger, more expensive mess.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers, no surprises.

Will I get value if my business is really small?+

Yes. One difficult performance issue, pay-rate question or compliance concern can take up a ridiculous amount of headspace, however small your team. The membership gives you someone to ask before you guess.

How do the 15-minute calls actually work?+

Once you join, book an available 15-minute slot. We call you at the booked time and provide practical guidance based on what you share. Best for short questions and next-step clarity, not document review or full case management.

What’s not included?+

Legal representation, payroll processing, tax, OH&S, EAP services, full document review, or full management of a termination or investigation process. Where we can’t help directly, we’ll point you toward a trusted specialist.

Is there a free trial?+

No. It’s a 12-month membership because you get immediate access to the team, portal, templates and training from day one. It renews automatically at your locked annual rate unless you cancel at least 7 days before renewal.

What happens straight after I join?+

You’ll get a welcome email and member portal access, plus an invitation to book your 30-minute HR Kick-Off Call, available from the next business day.

What if I need more hands-on support?+

No problem. Members get discounts on ad hoc HR hours, fixed-fee projects, training and HR in a Box products. If your issue needs deeper support, we’ll tell you clearly.

HR doesn’t need to be this hard.

You don’t need to understand every award, interpret every rule, or carry every people problem alone. You just need the right person to call.
