Meet the People Behind the Emu Thanks for being part of our journey to build the future operating system for Aussie small businesses. We’ve loved sharing a glimpse of what we’re building - now we’d like to go a step further and bring you behind the scenes. Who we are Mike Nash, founder of Tall Emu : "After more than 20 years working with Australian small businesses, one thing was clear: accounting software wasn’t the problem, operations were. Businesses were drowning in spreadsheets, double-handling, and manual processes. I knew we could build something better." That’s how Tall Emu began: a system designed to run the day-to-day of a business from sales to inventory to customer care. Mike says "I don’t do this alone. I’m lucky to be surrounded by a small, experienced team that’s just as committed as I am." Rachel Pirie – Head of Marketing and Operations Rachel has 15+ years’ experience in brand, communications, and digital strategy across hospitality, events, and technology. At Tall Emu, she drives brand growth, customer engagement, and efficiency. She has a strong record of scaling customer-focused businesses and building high-performing teams in global markets. Amy Glendinning – Head of Sales/CRM Consultant With nearly 20 years of industry experience across business solutions, accounting and IT, Amy has developed a broad capability of supporting numerous aspects of business processes. With a customer focus, consultative approach, she’s passionate about building meaningful solutions together with clients. See the rest of our Sydney-based team on our company page. We’d love to have you with us on this journey. Invest before 10pm AEST on 2nd October to join us for what is a bright future for Tall Emu!

Loyal Customers, Fresh Growth Tall Emu isn’t just winning new fans - we’re keeping them. Many of our earliest customers are still with us today, proving that our CRM keeps delivering year after year. 💚 Long-Standing Trust Take BluSky Products, for example. They came on board in 2018 and remain a valued customer, featured in our customer story video, below. Their success shows how Tall Emu can scale with a business over time. 🚀 Strong New Momentum In the last 12 months we’ve welcomed 80+ new customers and added hundreds of thousands of dollars in recurring revenue, bringing us to a total of over 350 customers, giving us a strong, and growing, ARR. This mix of loyal long-term clients and fast new growth is exactly why we’re excited about the next stage - continuing to build a product Australian SMEs trust for the long haul.

Our public offer is officially open. One year after stepping out from under MYOB’s wings, Tall Emu is flying solo - and fast. ✅ 80+ new customers ✅ $400K+ in new subscription revenue ✅ Now raising funds to go faster: more automation, AI and team growth We’ve chosen equity crowdfunding because it aligns with who we are: an Aussie-grown business supporting other Aussie businesses. Instead of handing the reins to private equity, we’re inviting everyday investors to become co-owners in what we’re building. If you believe SMEs deserve better than spreadsheets and overpriced ERPs, now’s your chance to own a slice of something real.

Tall Emu may not be the “coolest” investment you make – but it’s one of the most real. We’re a business with real customers, solving real problems, and building a product that helps Australian SMEs grow. For a fraction of the time and cost of systems like SAP, our customers get a home-grown solution that runs their business end-to-end. Here’s how one customer put it: “I’m impressed with Tall Emu. Coming from a SAP environment, I can accomplish nearly everything I did before - and in many cases it’s far simpler. Onboarding took some know-how, but once set up it’s been solid. [Since Tall Emu became independent], support has been fast, helpful, and on point when unusual issues arise.” In the last 12 months we signed 80+ new customers, adding over $400k in recurring revenue. ARR is now above $1.5M - achieved with just one salesperson. The next stage is scaling the team, accelerating product development, and doubling down on customer success. The private investment period is ending at midday on Monday 22nd September - get in before the crowd and be part of the next chapter of Tall Emu

Now’s the Time – Tall Emu’s Growth Is Just Getting Started Since taking back Tall Emu in late 2024, we’ve signed over $400,000 in new subscription revenue and added 82 new customers – all with a single salesperson on the team. Our Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) now sits at $1.5M, and we’re actively recruiting another salesperson to accelerate that growth further. We’re raising capital now to accelerate that growth - including hiring more sales and onboarding staff. Under the CSF rules, I can’t make forecasts, but SaaS businesses are usually valued on a multiple of their ARR. Our subscription base is climbing - you can see where this is heading and why now is a compelling time to invest. Our CSF investment campaign launched on Tuesday 16 September to those who had submitted an Expression of Interest. This means that those who joined in the EOI phase, now have early access before the offer is opened to the public - standby as this is very soon! Let’s build the future of SME software together. Kind regards, Mike Nash Founder & CEO, Tall Emu

Early access opens today - one year since going independent From Mike Nash, Founder Today, 16 September 2025, we open early access to our raise for everyone who lodged an Expression of Interest. It also marks one year since we took Tall Emu independent from MYOB. The timing feels right. We stepped out on our own to move faster and build what SMEs actually need. In the last 12 months we’ve tightened our focus as a mini-ERP CRM for manufacturers, wholesalers and B2B teams, deepened our MYOB and Xero integrations, launched AI-driven call summaries, and picked up Best SaaS Product for ERP at the 2025 SaaS Awards – beating some big hitters, including MYOB Acumatica. Good progress, with plenty more to do. If you submitted an EOI, your private early access link is in your inbox. If you didn’t, the offer will open to the public shortly. Year one was about focus and proof. Year two is about scale and execution. Thanks for backing an Australian-built product that keeps sales, operations and inventory in one place.
