Google recognises Waikato indie

HAMILTON, Monday: Waikato-based digital marketing agency Unbound – a comparatively small player with a team of 11 – has placed in the top four in the International Growth category of this year’s Google Ads AUNZ Premier Partner Awards.

Held in Sydney last week, the Google Premier Partner awards recognise the achievements of the best digital marketing agencies and providers across Australasia.

Unbound was one of just three New Zealand agencies that made it to the Australasian finals across all categories. 

“Being a Google Premier Partner shows prospective clients you have what it takes to help them grow online.”

The three NZ agencies were …

• Unbound – Finalist, International Marketing
• MBM – Finalist, International Marketing
• Reason Group – Finalist, Workplace Excellenc

Unbound owner/director Quentin Weber said: “While we did not come away with the category win, the recognition showcases Unbound’s ability to get results for their clients who want their brands, products, and services to be seen as credible and legitimate alternatives in much larger and highly-competitive markets overseas, such as the US, UK and Australia.

“It is awesome to be announced as finalists and be recognised amongst the top agencies in Australia and New Zealand. To make it into the top four of the international growth category is great recognition.

Google’s Davang Singh said: “Being a Google Premier Partner shows prospective clients you have what it takes to help them grow online.

“For small businesses that have just started out, or even larger firms yet to take their first steps online, it’s reassuring to know they’re working with a reputable provider approved by Google.”

There are 113 Google Premier Partners across New Zealand and Australia. Unbound is the only official Google Partner in New Zealand based outside Auckland and Wellington.
