more than marketing

Like any close-knit organization, our people are what set us apart. The diversity of backgrounds, age groups, skill sets, nationalities and most importantly, approaches to any one task, has afforded our clients incredible originality of ideas and campaign options.

There would be few marketing agencies, if any, that could attest to their key personnel having an average fluency of 2 languages per person. At More Than Marketing it is true. If you prefer Mandarin, Cantonese or Pidgin, we can converse with you, and produce your brochures in one of those languages as well.

Whilst all creative and administration is handled in our offices in Sydney’s CBD, economy of scale dictates that most of our production is outsourced. This way, we can determine the best specialist company to produce your uniforms, print material, packaging requirements etc, without the huge overheads and running costs associated with setting up in-house. As the pivotal point of control for the many components that are required in meeting your marketing objectives, More Than Marketing can save time and hassle; and at the same time ensure that each component meets stringent quality control for uniformity to the campaign. This results in better value for money and ultimately a better job for our clients.
