We help businesses build connection & trust with local families. 

Do you want more families to know about your business?

We hear from businesses daily about how they would love more families to know about their business. How if they could just get their brand and business in front of more family’s that they would make more revenue and their business could grow. That they wish they could build trust and a relationship with parents so that they can be advocates for their business  now and into the future.

Smart businesses know that the family market is lucrative and audience that they should invest time and money in to. This takes time, strategy and a multifaceted approach.

We’d love to help you.

It’s all about the audience

When it comes to smart marketing, the audience is the key factor, not the marketing platform.

Targeted Distribution

Marketing is an investment. When your advertising is
shown to the right audience, in the right way,
it makes a business money. 

There are so many platforms these days, and none of them are free. They all take an investment of time and money to be successful and build engagement with the audience you are targeting.

There has never been a more exciting yet challenging time to advertise and market your business. If you want your business to grow, the best way to do that is through successful marketing campaigns; whether that be referral, word of mouth, signage, brand identity, content marketing, or advertising.

Marketing is never wasted-it’s like planting seeds- you never know when they are going to bloom.

More platforms, equals more opportunities, but it also means more headaches as you try and navigate the never ending landscape and decide where best to invest your precious time and marketing dollar.

If you want to market to families- we’d love to help you.

Thank you so much for the Show & Tell article in January - we have been getting lots of calls from this. Plus, the advertisements we are running to promote our new water park, has helped our business really take off. Thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to continuing to work with you

T.PattersonManager - Kurrimine Beach Holiday Park

As an advertiser I can thoroughly recommend PakMag. We most certainly have had an increase in children and young people participating in our programs since advertising with PakMag. Thanks to the PakMag team for their consistent approach in trying to promote our programs through articles and promotions. In short I would say PakMag ROCKS!!
