Marcel Van der Horst Photographer's Review Sourced from Google

Avoid this company at all costs. Like many others have experienced, I was cold-called by a smooth-talking external sales agent whose sole purpose was to close the deal. They hit hard with relentless pressure, testimonials, and Zoom calls designed to wear you down. I reluctantly signed up for a six-podcast package costing over $3,000 AUD — an absurd amount for what’s delivered (and I haven’t even received half of it).After signing, communication turned into a mess of generic emails and poor service. I was assigned an "Account Manager" — clearly an overseas VA — who lacked professionalism, had broken English, and provided no follow-up. Even emails from their so-called boss, Lewis, go unanswered. It’s obvious these are automated, unmonitored canned emails. Reaching out via LinkedIn went nowhere.At one point, after not hearing anything for months, I pushed for a reply and eventually learned my account manager had left — with zero communication about it. Weeks between emails, late-night replies before weekends, and radio silence in between has become the norm. Their media manager — again, clearly a VA — takes months to edit or deliver clips.Nearly two years in, the results are basically non-existent. I’ve had to shift my messaging and target audience myself. Boost’s response? Push me into a "PR campaign" with no clear explanation of the benefits or process. They claimed to have contacted all relevant podcasts, but results say otherwise — most don’t respond or aren’t relevant. I even sourced my own guest spot and sent in a professionally recorded video, only to receive low-res, AI-generated clips in return, with poor captions and no proper intro hooks. Of the six podcasts promised, only two came through.The promo flyer they made was poorly done and required updates — I had to chase them for even the smallest edits, with no updated version ever provided.When I demanded actual proof of their PR campaign effectiveness, they sent me an email with 100 vague, redacted screenshots of testimonials — no names, no context, and no real value. It felt like smoke and mirrors. I honestly don’t believe they understand what an effective PR campaign even is.In today’s world, where content creation tools are readily available, companies like Boost Media are losing relevance fast. They boast of a vast "Podcast Network," but what they really have is just a spreadsheet of names — no statuses, contact info, or proof of outreach. When I asked for it, that’s all I got — a basic list.I’m now over $3,000 out of pocket, with no meaningful return and no partial refund, even though they’ve failed to uphold their end of the contract. It’s too late for a chargeback, and I’ve been left with wasted time and a bitter experience. That money would’ve been far better spent on Google SEO, Meta ads, or legitimate directory listings.Final red flag: their last Instagram post was over 70 weeks ago, and they don’t respond to Google reviews. That tells you everything you need to know about how much they care.Avoid, avoid, avoid.

My review of Viabrand will focus on the incredible graphic design and copywriting services they offer. From the moment I first encountered their work, I was highly impressed with the quality of their designs and the creativity of their writing.One thing I love about working with this marketing company is that they take time to get to know your business needs before jumping into any project. They take an individualised approach which ensures that everything they create is tailored specifically for you. Additionally, they are always willing to listen to feedback while remaining open-minded throughout the process. This helps ensure maximum satisfaction from all parties involved in each project.Thank you, Jho and Amber, and looking forward to the further cooperation.

He really listened to my ideas and brought my vision to life, while also offering thoughtful feedback and confidently guiding me with his expertise when needed. I truly appreciated his collaborative approach, attention to detail, and the excellent value he provided for the quality of work delivered.Kym created something for me that I'm proud to put out in the public as a representation of "me", and the value of that cannot be overstated.I highly recommend Kym to anyone looking for creative and reliable design support!

If you’re looking for a PR agency that gets the BUZZ HAPPENING about your brand/company and secures HIGH-VALUE MEDIA placements (and quickly) work with Neon Black! Soraya and her team genuinely care about the clients they represent, they ask lots of questions so they can get to the hear of what makes YOUR BUSINESS unique. Then they are straight out there making a plan and getting your name out in front of media and opinion leaders with unique and compelling talking points. They are full service as well; PR, influencer, ambassador, events, activations - they can do it all (and keep it within budget). Highly recommend booking a call with the team so they can understand your goals and to share ideas.

We engaged Belle Laide Events (BLE) to design and manage an importantevent for us in Sydney last October. It involved the pinpoint delivery ofaudiovisual, décor, food and beverage across two venues in Sydney CBD.The BLE team worked closely with us to develop our concepts and provided a high level of customer service ahead of the event, which gave us a lot of confidence. The event management team on the day (Delon, Jamie and Bek) delivered a seamless production that exceeded all of our expectations. This is the reason BLE has won a series of national and international awards in the recent months. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend BLE to anybody looking for an event team that delivers what they promise (and more).

Based on recent experience I can recommend Belle-Laide Events as an agency that produces some of the best work in the market. The event they produced for me was high on detail and quality, and was run like clockwork. The Belle-Laide team was very responsive to our needs, great with communication and considered every aspect of the brief, including producing beautiful visualisations that showed us exactly how the venue would look. Nothing was ever a problem, and the end result was a huge success. Our guests are still speaking about the event weeks even months afterwards.

Whilst recently researching events companies, I had a discussion with BLE about how they might approach an idea that I had. As it turns out, my funding estimates were wildly inaccurate resulting in me shelving the plans. Whilst it was probably clear to the team at BLE that I wasn't being realistic, they were professional and treated me like a valued customer throughout the discussion. Can't say I've had that experience before. It was appreciated.

A very refreshing and welcomed encounter after having an incredibly poor experience with Natasha from 'Red Leopard PR' who was very pleased to take our money but was horribly rude and unprofessional and quite frankly the worst business experience we have ever had. Thank you for taking the time to truly understand us. It's amazing how much money we wasted on poor PR team and the incredible difference it can make by hiring the right people for the job. Thanks everyone!* DO NOT HIRE RED LEOPARD PR OF YOU VALUE YOUR MONEY AND BUSINESS. Don't make the mistake we did.

From the moment you arrive at Adoni you know you are in the hands of some very serious professionals.

I was very impressed with the sharing of media tips from Leisa, Jane and cameraman Peter, it now makes so much more sense. The transformation in one half day Media training session was truly remarkable. As a result, I no longer cringe when I watch myself back on TV. I feel much more in control and relaxed.

I hope this review finds you well. I can't say enough about the exceptional services provided by Adcreators, the marketing advertising company that has been instrumental in reshaping our e-commerce strategy at Organic Souk.From the moment we engaged with them, it was evident that we were in capable hands. Their programmatic advertising campaigns have not only improved our online presence but have also shown us the path to growth. They've demonstrated an impressive strategy to target our niche consumers.I must commend the outstanding leadership of Sive, whose empathy and flexibility have been nothing short of incredible. Sive's dedication to understanding our unique needs and challenges has been a game-changer. Her leadership is second to none, and her commitment to our success is truly appreciated.In addition to Sive, Lukas and Gabi have been instrumental in educating us on how to build a strong and effective social & digital strategy. Their professionalism and expertise have been invaluable. Lukas and Gabi have a remarkable ability to break down complex concepts into digestible insights, making the learning process both enjoyable and enlightening.Adcreators make every client feel special.

I highly recommend Rony and his team from Adcreators. We are new business owners in the hospitality industry and creating a partnership with a marketing company with integrity that delivers outcomes was very important. Adcreators has assisted us in making our online presence to increase our client base Australia-wide. They have been with us every step of the way - from branding to logo design to website creation to ad-campaigns. Creating a brand and website can be quite a tedious process which makes it particularly challenges if you are already time poor. But Adcreators has been beside us every-step of the way patiently implementing our feedback while providing best practice knowledge on the finished product. The finished product was beyond my imagination and we thank Adcreators for making it a reality
