The 90-Day Commitment: your build plan is live in 90 days, or you stop paying us until it is How it works
Sellevate
Digital marketing agency Melbourne

Melbourne digital marketing that ends in a booked job.

Melbourne is the most competitive service market in Australia, which means the businesses that win are the ones visible at the exact moment of need, and disciplined about what happens after the phone rings. We build both halves.

Winning in a crowded Melbourne market

In Melbourne, almost every service category is contested. Click costs are higher, the map pack is crowded, and there is always a competitor willing to outspend you for a month. Competing on budget alone is a losing strategy for most operators.

What actually wins is precision: suburb-level targeting rather than metro-wide spray, a page per service and area instead of one generic services page, reviews that outnumber the business ranking above you, and intake fast enough that you don’t pay for leads your competitor answers first.

We’re an hour down the highway in Geelong, which means we can be in Melbourne when it helps and keep your fee going into the work rather than a CBD office lease.

Straight terms

No mark-up on ad spend. Ninety days to build the engine, then month to month. One trade per service area on paid lead generation.

The engine we run

Four stages. The fourth is the one most agencies skip, and it’s the one that tells you whether any of it worked.

01
Get Found

Rank and bid where your buyers actually search: Google Business Profile, local SEO, search ads.

02
Get Chosen

A fast site, pages that answer the exact question asked, and reviews that outnumber the competitor’s.

03
Get Booked

Click-to-call, short forms, response-time discipline. Most agencies stop at the click, jobs are won at intake.

04
Know What Paid

Every enquiry tracked to its source and the job it became. Cost per enquiry, cost per signed client.

Which program fits

Programs are banded by revenue, the way the ABS sizes Australian business, so a sole operator and a multi-crew group aren’t sold the same plan. No prices on the site; the exact number is stated plainly on the audit call, before any commitment.

Who it’s not for

Businesses chasing maximum lead volume with no capacity to service it, or marketing with no call tracking, we’re the wrong agency, and we’ll say so on the call.

Proof you can check.

We publish two client results, both read from inside the client’s own admin with their permission. Both are online stores. The method is the one we run for service businesses: track every enquiry to the booked job first, fix the page that converts, then put the budget behind what works.

Questions

Do you have a Melbourne office?

We’re Geelong-based and work with Melbourne businesses both remotely and in person. No CBD overheads baked into your fee.

How do you compete with bigger Melbourne agencies?

Senior people on your account rather than a junior, no mark-up on ad spend, and a capped intake so delivery stays good. We also turn work away when we’re not the right fit.

Which suburbs do you target?

Whichever ones hold your best work. Suburb-level campaigns and service-and-suburb pages beat metro-wide targeting almost every time, and we name the areas in your engagement.

Do you offer area exclusivity?

For trades, yes, one client per trade per defined service area on paid lead generation, with the suburbs named in writing.
