Our Story
Founded in 2003 as Smash Media, we began with a mission to empower SMEs in media planning and negotiation. Recognising the complexities and challenges faced by SMEs, we offered tailored support and advice to navigate the media landscape. Initially focused on media planning and buying, we grew organically into a full-service agency, known for our collaborative, efficient, and honest approach. Our zero-agency management fee for media planning, buying, and performance reporting sets us apart, allowing businesses to access top-tier services without the hefty price tag. Driven by long-standing client relationships and word-of-mouth recommendations, our success has been a testament to our commitment to excellence. In our latest evolution, we've rebranded to Smash Brand Group to better reflect the broad range of services we offer our clients.
Forget ordinary. We're the growth igniters, the expectation smashers, the agency that helps SMEs redefine what's possible.
We love to collaborate with clients who want to truly partner with us and develop impactful campaigns that deliver previously unseen demand for their clients' products and services.
We're not just another marketing and media agency. Our deep expertise, expansive network, and long-term industry relationships, combined with our unique ‘zero-cost’ service model, empower SMEs to achieve demand generation results once only enjoyed by the big end of town.
Complexity? Not our style. We're obsessed with keeping things straightforward, stripping away the complexity of the media campaign process for our clients. No jargon, no confusion—just clear strategies and measurable results.
Through collaborative strategy development and excellence in execution, we deliver impactful campaigns, save our clients’ money, and smash the results—every time.
