The Brisbane marketing agency that starts with strategy.
Brisbane has hundreds of agencies selling channels. This one was built by business owners who used marketing to grow their own group to seven figures, and it runs on one conviction: define the strategy first and the channels finally pay. Judge us the way you should judge every agency: four questions, below.
Four questions that expose any agency. Including us.
Use these on every agency you talk to. We built our whole offer so we'd love being asked.
Ask to see strategy before packages
If the first conversation is about which package fits your budget, the strategy is an afterthought. It should be the product. Ask any agency: what would you do first, and why? The answer tells you whether they think or just execute.
Demand named results, not logos
A logo wall proves someone paid them once. Named clients with before-and-after numbers prove the work works. Ask for three clients by name with the numbers that changed. We publish ours below.
Check the contract before the price
Lock-in contracts exist to survive underperformance. Month-to-month terms exist because the agency expects to earn next month. Ask what happens if you want to leave in 60 days, and watch the body language.
Find out who does the actual work
Pitched by a director, serviced by a junior is the oldest bait-and-switch in the industry. Ask exactly who sets your strategy, who reviews your results monthly, and how senior they are. Here, it's the founders, and we put that in writing.
Strategy. Conversion. Growth. In that order.
The Strategy-to-Leads Framework is the intellectual backbone of everything we sell, from the $250 automated product to enterprise engagements. Channels come last, because channels amplify whatever strategy exists.

Not the pitch team. The actual strategists on your account, every month.
James Webb.
Founder - LINK Group
James founded LINK in 2012 and built it from a single service into a seven-figure, multi-division group spanning accounting, marketing, creative and advisory. Every business inside LINK grew on the back of online lead generation, and that experience shapes how he works with yours: strategy first, then messaging, website and channels aligned to produce predictable results.
David James.
Director - SEO & Digital Strategy
David is the strategist behind LINK's own search rankings. He combines technical SEO, performance marketing and a sharp read on how search behaviour turns into enquiries. His approach is the opposite of set-and-forget agency SEO: every keyword, page and campaign traces back to a business outcome.
Choosing an agency in Brisbane: the FAQ.
What does a marketing agency cost in Brisbane?
Traditional Brisbane retainers run roughly $1,400 to $5,000+ per month depending on scope, with project work quoted on top. LINK Marketing publishes its pricing: automated SEO from $250 a month (rank.™), SEO with senior strategy from $400 to $600 (rank+™), full-funnel Growth Marketing from $2,000 to $5,000, and a $500 + GST Strategy Session that's money-back if it isn't worth more than the fee.
What makes LINK Marketing different from other Brisbane agencies?
Strategy is the product, not a preamble. Every engagement starts by finding what actually makes your business money (your most profitable service, your best clients) before a channel is chosen. The founders set and review every strategy, our client results are published with names and numbers, and every product is month-to-month with no lock-in.
Do you only do SEO?
SEO is our productised strength (rank.™ and rank+™), and Growth Marketing runs the full engine: Google Ads, Meta advertising, content strategy, conversion optimisation and landing pages, all directed by one strategy. Being part of the LINK group also puts accountants, creatives and finance specialists across the desk when growth needs them.
What's the Strategy-to-Leads Framework?
Our three-stage method: Strategy (ideal client, most profitable service, positioning, keyword opportunity), Conversion (a website engineered to turn visitors into enquiries), then Growth (SEO, Google Ads, Meta and content in the order your market rewards). The order is the method: channels come last because channels amplify whatever strategy exists, including a bad one.
Do you work with small businesses?
Small business is who the products were built for. rank.™ at $250 a month exists precisely so a small Brisbane business can do SEO properly without a retainer. Our typical clients are trades, professional services, healthcare and growing service businesses who are excellent at the work and under-represented online.
Do you lock clients into contracts?
No. Everything is month-to-month and you can cancel anytime. We think agencies that need lock-in contracts are telling you something about their confidence in the work.
Who will I actually deal with?
James Webb (founder of the LINK group) and David James (Director of SEO and Digital Strategy) set every client's strategy, and David runs the monthly check-ins on rank+™ and above. The automation does the repetitive work; the humans you met do the thinking.
Can I see results before committing to a retainer?
Yes, two ways. The free website conversion audit shows you what your current site is leaving on the table, no obligation. And the $500 + GST Strategy Session delivers the full roadmap with a money-back guarantee, so the maximum possible downside of finding out is zero.
Where are you based?
Level 1, 57 Berwick Street, Fortitude Valley, in LINK's building alongside the group's accounting, creative and finance teams. Brisbane businesses are welcome in person; everyone else gets the same sessions over video.
How quickly can you start?
Applications are reviewed within two business days. Strategy sessions are typically scheduled within the fortnight, the conversion website build runs in weeks not months, and rank.™ automation starts publishing within days of the site going live.
Interview us. We'll bring the numbers.
Apply for the value-guaranteed strategy session, ask us the four questions above, and leave with a roadmap either way.
