Squawk Digital?

who is

We’re a digital marketing agency that works with you to get your business the right attention for the right reasons. We’re transparent, curious, and results-focused.

Peace Sign | Squawk Digital | Hobart Digital Marketing Agency

In a world where monthly billables can take priority over results, we’re messing things up and getting as down and dirty in your business as you are, so we can achieve your goals together. We recognise that the same old marketing strategies and tactics just don’t work anymore, so we’ve done away with the cookie cutter. Instead, we come at our partnerships with an adaptable approach that seeks to understand your unique business and to create customised strategies that speak to your clients in relevant and authentic ways. Unusual? Absolutely. Effective? As chicken noodle soup for a cold. 

We could squawk on about what we do, the expertise we hold, and the services we provide (and we do that here), but we’re not just about talking the talk.

Here’s how we walk the Squawk:

We take the time to understand how you measure success, and then work collaboratively to create unconventional plans and bold targets. The traditional takes a backseat, and the unexpected gets dibs on the wheel. But it’s not just an excuse to be rebellious - it’s actually about efficacy and smarts. We’re as passionate as you are about growing your business and getting it in front of your ideal customers.

We set ourselves lofty standards, but they sit smack bang in the context of your processes, people, and budget. We respect that good collaboration needs flexibility and adaptability, which just so happen to be two of our (many *cough*) superpowers.

We’re digital nerds, but we’re just as fluent in plain English as we are in techno-babble, so you can depend on a shared language. We’re big on two-way communication that doesn’t require a middle-man (none of this I’ll get my people to call your people), and we’ll bring you up to speed on any marketing jargon so you’re always clued-in. We want to know where things are at just as much as you do, so expect plenty of chatter.

We’re marketing experts, but we don’t gatekeep our expertise because we know that information-sharing creates great partnerships and gets results. There’s no radio silence with us and you can count on an open book when it comes to our work and digital assets. What’s ours is yours.

We’re community-obsessed, no-nonsense, and anti-hierarchy. While we’re working with and for you, we also want to get to know you for you, and to weave that level of relationship into everything we do together. Wanna be friends?

The Squawk Digital Crew

As a boutique digital marketing agency, we believe in keeping things smaller, more connected with less hoops. This means there’s nothing lost in handover, you won’t be passed from a sales manager, to an account manager, to the marketer or referred to billing.
