About

Good marketing should not
cost a small fortune.

Sellevate was founded in Geelong in 2024, after one too many conversations with owners who had been quoted five thousand dollars for a simple website. Australian leadership, global specialists, and pricing that ordinary businesses can actually say yes to.

Our story

We started Sellevate because
the pricing had stopped making sense.

Before Sellevate, I spent a lot of time talking to Australian business owners about quotes they had been given. The same numbers kept coming up.

Five thousand dollars for a simple website. Not a custom platform. A handful of pages, a contact form, some photos. Fifteen thousand to manage an online store. Not a national campaign. The everyday work of keeping listings, ads and email running.

The work itself was not complicated. The price was. And the businesses being quoted those numbers were the ones who could least afford them: the sole trader, the family shop, the owner doing their own invoicing at nine at night.

Plenty of them simply walked away and did nothing. That is the part that bothered me. A good tradesperson or a good product loses to a worse competitor with a bigger budget, and everyone calls it the market.

So we built the thing I wished those owners could hire.

Leadership here in Australia, so you always talk to someone accountable, in your timezone, who understands your market. Specialists overseas, so you get senior skill in every discipline without paying for a CBD office and a layer of account managers.

The saving is structural, not a discount. That is why we can hold the price without cutting the work, and why nobody has to accept a cheaper version of the job.

That is the whole idea. Every Australian business should be able to afford a capable team beside them online. Not just the ones with a marketing budget.

What we believe

Traffic isn't the product
Enquiries are. If a report leads with sessions rather than signed clients, it is measuring the wrong thing.
Specific beats broad
An agency that serves everyone learns nothing about anyone. We'd rather go deep in a few industries.
No mark-up on ad spend
What you pay Google is what Google gets. Our fee is our fee.
No lock-in
Month to month. If we're not earning it, you should be able to leave.
Say the unwelcome thing
Sometimes the honest recommendation is spend less, or fix intake before marketing. We say it anyway.
Compliance isn't optional
Regulated industries have real advertising rules. We write to them from the first draft.
