Our Team
Samantha Gould
Founder/Director
I have worked in Social Media since 2004, and in Marketing since 1995.
I have been passionate about marketing for a long time, starting my career in sales and marketing assistant roles. I worked full-time and studied part-time for my marketing qualifications.
I can remember when digital first entered our crazy world, I knew it was going to change the marketing landscape and, sure enough, 20 years later here we are.
Digital marketing has grown so much and given small businesses a platform to showcase themselves to their consumers without hefty costs.
I am a firm believer in planning and having multiple marketing strategies for a business or brand.
For the past 20 years, I have been managing marketing and social media; building websites; and creating marketing campaigns and marketing strategy plans for large and small businesses to give them a loud voice and a strong brand identity.
I have worked with well-known organisations such as Howards Storage World, Volcom, Villeroy & Boch, and House with No Steps (now known as Aruma), Yardley London and Marc Daniels.
Tracey Joynson
Writer, photographer & videographer
I have more than 20 years of experience as a journalist working for a variety of media organisations including the wire service Australian Associated Press; newspapers such as The Herald Sun and The West Australian; and magazines such as Australian Property Investor. I’ve written news, features and finance stories and one highlight was covering Prince Charles’s visit to Fraser Island before he became King.
I’ve had a passion for photography since I was a teenager. Over the years, I’ve developed a keen eye while shooting sporting events, landscapes, animals and portraits in my free time and professionally taking photos for news, social media and promotional purposes.
While working for Fraser Coast Tourism and Events, I filmed a video of tourists swimming with whales in Hervey Bay. It attracted about 1.8 million views and 9000 comments after being supplied to Tourism Australia and posted on the organisation’s Facebook page, Australia.com: https://www.facebook.com/SeeAustralia/videos/10155618169935909
I love connecting with people and helping them to tell their stories, whether it’s through words, photos or videos.
