Australia's marketing reality: high agency costs squeeze SMBs
Australian digital marketing agencies have some of the highest service rates globally. A Sydney SEO retainer runs AUD 3,500-6,000/month minimum. A Melbourne PPC engagement starts at AUD 4,000+. Brisbane and Perth agencies charge similar rates. For Australian SMBs running businesses with AUD 200,000-2,000,000 annual revenue, these rates eat 5-10% of total revenue before any ad spend gets allocated. Most Australian SMBs end up either over-paying for half-decent service or skipping professional digital marketing entirely.
