Where Creativity Meets the Coast, and Brands Come Alive.
We're Coral Coast Media, a full-service marketing agency in Balmain, Sydney, helping Australian businesses flourish through genuine partnership and innovative strategies.
Our Story: From Warehouse to Full-Service Agency
Founded in 2016, we're a dynamic agency balancing creativity with measurable outcomes.
Our Beginning
Coral Coast Media was born from a simple observation: too many marketing agencies were focused on flashy campaigns that failed to deliver real business results. Our founders, Emma Richardson and Marcus Chen, wanted to create an agency that treated every client's success as if it were their own.
Starting in a small converted warehouse in Balmain, they named the agency Coral Coast Media as a tribute to Australia's stunning coastline and the vibrant, living ecosystems that thrive there—a metaphor for the diverse, interconnected marketing strategies they believed would help businesses flourish.
Our Growth
What began as a two-person operation has grown into a team of 28 talented professionals. Despite our growth, we've stayed true to our roots, maintaining our original office on Evans Street—though we've expanded to occupy the entire building now.
We've had the privilege of working with everyone from ambitious startups to established ASX-listed companies. Our client retention rate below speaks to the relationships we build and the results we deliver.
