McGrath

Centralised planning, buying and reporting to bring consistency and visibility across offices. 

Oversight by Smash ensures strong negotiation and added value for our local offices - less admin, more results.

 

Larissa Mihnyak, Senior Marketing Manager

The Challenge

 McGrath’s local offices faced fragmented media activity, inconsistent results, and limited negotiating power - leading to higher costs, and unnecessary admin load. 

Our Approach

We centralised the media buying engine but kept execution flexible for local markets, maintaining strong rate positions, and consistent results.

 

What We Did

Planned and bought media across outdoor, radio, TV, print, and digital - negotiating standardised costings, and value-adds for each local office.

The Results

Reduced admin, standardised processes, and clear, consistent reporting. Local offices received bonus value, and improved placements in both metro, and regional markets.

Value Delivered

Stronger negotiating power, less admin, and maximised media value - delivering better results for every McGrath office.
