Founder and Director
Flaunt MarketingFounder and Director
Oct. 1995Melbourne Area, AustraliaAfter 30 years we’re excited to announce a brand-new direction for Flaunt, and that is, we’re no longer doing PR – WHAT?! In recent years we have worked with many teams and other creatives who have no solid or researched brand direction, market position, or even key messages. The result is that a lot a marketing budget gets wasted on tactics that aren’t right for the business. What often happens is that creatives such as publicists, graphic designers, advertisers, etc are left to put the pieces together and guess the correct direction. This means only some of the work sticks or converts to sales. That’s why Flaunt will now solely be focused on transforming businesses through solidly researched, and clear marketing strategy. Over three months, we work directly with business owners and marketing managers to dig deep into the company’s core and get to the bottom of their point of difference. The result, a thoroughly documented brand strategy set to brief your team and suppliers moving forward. So, if you’re struggling with hit and miss results, lack of buy in ad support, or bad briefs, we can’t wait to help you. We look forward to working together again in the evolution of Flaunt.
