Tom put $8K into ads. It became $1M in renovations.

Don't take it from us — here's Tom, a builder in Bendigo, telling it himself.

“Minus Media has been exceptional to work with. After signing up with other agencies and getting burnt I lost faith, until I meant Nick from Minus Media since signing up with minus media in the first 2 months we have generated over 90 leads. I had to ask for them to slow it down because we can’t keep up. Nick goes above and beyond to help even after the lead generated with follow-up calls and other marketing needs.”

“Had a great experience working with Nick from Minus Media on our Meta ads. The team was easy to deal with, clear in their communication, and very strategic with their approach. They really understood our goals and built campaigns that delivered solid results. Highly recommend them to any business looking to improve their lead generation through Meta.”

You didn't start a building business to babysit lead flow.

  • Lead flow's a rollercoaster — flat out one month, dead quiet the next.

  • You've been burned by an agency before. Big talk, lock-in contract, nothing to show for it.

  • HiPages and word of mouth only stretch so far.

  • You're pricing jobs for tyre-kickers who were never going to sign.

  • Someone with worse work than yours is winning better jobs.

None of that is a you problem. It's a system problem — and a system problem is fixable.

The 7-Figure Tradie Scaling System.

Three parts, one job: more of the right work, won more often. Simple enough to repeat to your business partner over smoko.

Most agencies. This one.

The usual agency

  • An account manager sits between you and whoever actually does the work.
  • Any client, any industry, same recycled playbook.
  • Leads dumped in your inbox — following up is your problem.
  • Reports built to confuse you into staying.
  • Lock-in contracts doing the retention work.

Minus Media

  • Direct access to the people doing the work — the director included.
  • Building and renovation. Only.
  • Ads, landing pages and follow-up working as one system.
  • Plain-English numbers: spend, leads, cost per signed job.
  • No long-term lock-ins. The results do the retention.

I'm Nick. You'll always know who you're working with.

Minus Media is director-led, and that means something specific: I stay across every account — the strategy, the creative, the numbers — and when you call, you get a decision-maker, not an account manager reading from a dashboard.

We only work with building and renovation businesses, because specificity is the whole advantage — every campaign we run teaches us something your next campaign benefits from.

If that sounds like the opposite of the last agency you dealt with, that's the point.
