AUTOMATION TYPESs
Automated Systems Built for Scalable Customer Journeys
Every business has different objectives. We match the right campaign type — or combination of types — to your specific goals and budget.
Lead Nurture Sequences
What it is
Multi-step automated workflows guiding a new lead from first enquiry through to purchase decision. Triggered by form submission, content download, or ad click. Combines email, SMS where integrated, and internal task notifications for the sales team.
Best for
Service businesses with longer sales cycles: professional services, NDIS, healthcare, real estate, high-value trades. Any business where average enquiry-to-purchase is more than 7 days.
Expect
Lead nurture sequences ensure no enquiry goes cold. A 5-email nurture over 14 days can convert leads that would otherwise be lost to inaction.
CRM Pipeline Automation
What it is
Workflow triggers within your CRM (HubSpot, ActiveCampaign) that automatically move deals through pipeline stages, assign tasks, send notifications, and trigger follow-up communications based on deal status changes.
Best for
Any business using a CRM to manage a sales pipeline. Particularly valuable where more than 3 people are involved in the sales process.
Expect
Pipeline automation reduces average time-to-close and prevents leads stalling between stages.
Booking and Appointment Confirmations
What it is
Automated confirmation, reminder, and follow-up emails and SMS triggered by bookings made through Calendly, Acuity, or CRM-integrated booking systems.
Best for
Healthcare, trades, consultants, driving schools, salons, and service businesses where appointment scheduling is a primary conversion action.
Expect
Automated appointment reminders reduce no-shows by 30 to 40% on average. A 2-reminder sequence (24 hours and 1 hour before) is the most effective format.
Customer Lifecycle and Retention Automation
What it is
Workflows triggered by time since last purchase, subscription renewal dates, service anniversaries, or inactivity thresholds. Proactively retains customers before they churn.
Best for
Subscription businesses, recurring service businesses, and eCommerce brands with meaningful repeat purchase opportunity
Expect
Proactive retention automation reduces churn by keeping the brand visible and valuable during periods when customers are most likely to drift away.
What Is Paid Advertising
Performance Marketing Backed by Strategy, Data, and Experience
Most businesses that have tried paid advertising have a story that ends the same way: budget spent, phone quiet, agency pointing at impressions. The problem is rarely the platform. It is the strategy, the structure, and the team managing it.
We run paid advertising across every major platform -- Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, and YouTube -- with one focus: generating revenue and qualified enquiries for our clients. Each platform has different strengths. We match the right channel to your goals, not the other way around.
Every account comes with verified conversion tracking, a live reporting dashboard, and a dedicated account manager. No lock-in contracts.

FAQs
Common questions.
Which automation platform do you use?
We work primarily with HubSpot, Klaviyo, ActiveCampaign, and Go High Level. Platform recommendation depends on your business type and existing tech stack. We advise on the right fit before any commitment to a platform is made.
Is marketing automation worth it for small businesses?
Yes -- if you have a repeatable sales process and more than a handful of leads per month. Even a simple 5-email lead nurture sequence and an appointment reminder workflow can generate significant ROI for a small business. The investment in setup pays for itself when even one additional lead per month converts.
Do I need a CRM to use marketing automation?
A CRM makes automation significantly more powerful -- it allows personalisation, deal stage triggers, and two-way data flow between your sales process and your marketing. We can recommend and set up a CRM as part of the engagement if you do not have one.
How long does automation setup take?
A core automation setup -- lead nurture sequence, appointment reminders, CRM pipeline configuration -- typically takes 3 to 4 weeks from brief to live. More complex multi-channel systems take 6 to 8 weeks
Does automation need ongoing management once it is set up?
Yes. Automations degrade over time as offers change, team contacts change, and platform updates occur. We offer ongoing management retainers to monitor performance, update content, and add new workflows as your business grows.
How much does marketing automation cost?
Setup engagements start from $2,500 for a core automation build. Complex multi-platform systems are quoted based on scope. Ongoing management retainers start from $600 per month.
