Working with Hamilton businesses
A real person, focused on getting you more work.
I’m Stu, a New Zealand-based digital marketer. I already work with Hamilton businesses, including Woodney Contracting, and businesses across the wider Waikato, getting them found online and winning more work. With 15+ years in the trades and over a decade running my own business behind me, I get what local Kiwi businesses need.
I’m not based in Hamilton, but everything runs online, so distance is no barrier. You deal with someone who actually does the work himself, not an overseas agency or an account manager reading from a script.
