Partner with the Media Group

Bigger work, kept local.

You run something in this region that helps businesses get seen — a station, a camera, a venue, a sign on the highway. On your own, you cover one part of what a business needs. Together, we can cover the whole job, and go after the work that usually leaves town.

Why the group grows

  1. More businessesEvery business that joins brings its own speciality, its own clients and its own following.
  2. Better workEach part of the job is done by the local who does it best, to one shared standard.
  3. Bigger jobsUnder one name, we put our hand up for the campaigns that usually go to the city.

And bigger jobs bring more businesses to the table

№ 01 · Why we’re asking

The talent’s here. We’re just scattered.

When a business out here wants a proper campaign — radio, print, video, a website, the lot — the easy answer is a big media group from out of town. They get the job because they can do all of it under one name.

Local businesses like ours end up competing for that work one at a time, and mostly losing it. The money leaves the region, and so does the work.

TSH Media Group is our answer: the region’s media and creative businesses working as one group, under one name, with each part run by the local who does it best.

The point

A business out here shouldn’t have to ring Brisbane to get its marketing done properly. And the people who do that work well shouldn’t have to leave town to build a career.

№ 02 · What it means for you

Your business stays your own.

You keep everything you’ve built, and add the rest of the group to it.

  1. 01

    You keep your name, your speciality and your own clients.

    The group doesn’t swallow you or rebrand you. The clients you already have stay yours.

  2. 02

    Work you couldn’t win on your own.

    Bigger jobs need more than one business. Under one name, we can put our hand up for the campaigns that usually go to the city.

  3. 03

    Your work in front of more people.

    Every business in the group has its own following. Being part of it puts what you do in front of all of them.

  4. 04

    Your strengths, matched to the job.

    Every business brings its own strengths. We match each job to whoever suits it best.

  5. 05

    Someone looking after the front door.

    Enquiries come in through the group. We match each job to the businesses that suit it and keep it moving, so you can get on with the work.

№ 03 · Who’s already in

The people behind it.

№ 05 · How it starts

It starts with a conversation.

  1. 01

    You get in touch.

    Fill in the form below. A few lines about your business is plenty.

  2. 02

    We sit down together.

    Over a coffee, we hear what you do and who you do it for, and work out together where you’d fit.

  3. 03

    We work through the detail in person.

    How jobs come through and how the group works together gets talked through with you directly, so every question gets a straight answer.

  4. 04

    If it suits both of us, you’re in.

    Your business joins the group under its own name, and we start finding work to do together.

№ 06 · Straight answers

What’s the catch?

The things most people ask before they put their hand up.

Does it cost anything to join?

No. Joining is free. When the group finds and runs a job, it takes a coordination fee from that job. We’ll show you the exact figure, and how it sits in the quote and in your pay, before you agree to anything.

Do I keep my own clients and my name?

Yes. Your business keeps its name, its branding and every client it already has. The group doesn’t take over your existing work or ask you to rebrand. Jobs that come through the group are extra work on top.

What if someone else in the group does similar work to me?

It can happen. Two businesses can work in the same field and still be good at different things. Each job goes to whoever suits it best, and sometimes that’s a job for both of you.

Who can join?

Media and creative businesses in the Central Highlands that are good at what they do and easy to deal with. Every business in the group needs current business insurance and to be registered for GST with an active ABN, because the work goes out under a shared name.

Do I have to sign anything?

Not to start. The form below just opens a conversation. If we both want to go ahead, there’s a written agreement that sets out how jobs, payment and responsibilities work. You’ll have time to read it and run it past your own accountant or lawyer before you sign.

How does the work actually come in?

Group jobs come in through TSH Media Group. Your own enquiries still come straight to you. For group jobs, we work out what the job needs, match it to the businesses that suit it and put one quote in front of the client. Each business does its own part. We keep the job moving and the client in the loop.

Will you find me work straight away?

We won’t promise a set amount of work. The group is new, and we’d rather say that now than oversell it.
