A digital marketing agency for Ballarat businesses: health, trade and hospitality marketing on one plan, run by our team from Mildura.

Marketing Ballarat

A digital marketing agency Ballarat businesses can call on

Rock Solid Marketing is a digital marketing agency for Ballarat businesses that want one team running their website, Google, social media and campaigns, from our office in Mildura. We don't have an office in Ballarat. You get a dedicated account manager, a monthly meeting by video or phone, and the whole team behind them.

Ballarat's economy leans on health, education, visitors and trades. A physio near the hospital, a cafe on Sturt Street and a builder in Lucas all need different marketing. Each one also needs someone to plan it, do it and report on it.

Marketing partnership plans start from $4,500 + GST a month for 28 hours. The first step is a free 30-minute discovery call.

What we do

Digital marketing Ballarat businesses can measure

Each part of the plan below is chosen for your business and reported every month, so you can see where the hours and the money go.

Marketing for health professionals

Healthcare marketing in Ballarat has rules: AHPRA's advertising guidelines bar testimonials about clinical care and claims that create unreasonable expectations. Your ads, posts and pages are written within them.

Social media that sounds local

Posts about your team, your work and what's on in Ballarat, from the Begonia Festival to footy finals. A social media marketing agency in Ballarat should know the calendar, and we plan around it.

Google and your website

Your Google Business Profile, website pages and search ads working together, so people who search for what you do in Ballarat find you and can book or call.

Campaigns around the year

Federation University's terms, the tourist seasons and the end of financial year all shift demand. Campaigns are timed to the months that matter to your trade.

Design and content

Graphics, flyers, email newsletters and short videos made by our designer and writers, in your brand, without you hiring a separate studio.

Monthly reporting

One report each month covering what we did, what it cost in hours and what it brought in. Your account manager walks you through it at the monthly meeting.

How it starts

How we start marketing for a Ballarat business

A call, a plan you approve, then monthly work and a monthly report.

  1. Discovery call

    A free 30-minute video or phone call about your business, your Ballarat customers and what's working now.

  2. Plan

    We review your website, Google profile, social media and ads, then give you a plan and the hours each part needs.

  3. Do the work

    Our specialists carry out the plan each month: posts, ads, pages, emails and design, all approved by you.

  4. Meet and report

    Your account manager meets you monthly by video or phone with a report on hours, results and next steps.

How it works

How a Mildura agency runs marketing for Ballarat

Digital marketing doesn't need us on Sturt Street. It needs a plan, the hours to carry it out and someone who reports back honestly. Your account manager meets you monthly by video or phone, and the work happens through your accounts, which stay in your name.

We start by finding which channel brings your best customers now, then put the hours there first. If a website fix or a Google profile clean-up will do more than a monthly plan, we'll tell you before we quote.

  • A marketing plan for your first 12 months
  • Hours split across the channels that pay back
  • Health ads and posts checked against AHPRA rules
  • Monthly meeting by video or phone
  • A monthly report you can read in minutes

One plan, one contact, every channel accounted for.
