Rated 4.9 stars on Google.
Service area
Dunedin (The Octagon, University of Otago and George Street)
Since 2010 we have grown into a 70-person team covering strategy, design, development and performance media under one roof. Here is what that means for a Dunedin business competing in Dunedin, Mosgiel, and the Otago region.
Dunedin Market Knowledge
We research Dunedin before we write a line of copy: who the buyers around Dunedin City Centre and South Dunedin Industrial are, which education and healthcare competitors already rank, and what Dunedin, Mosgiel, and the Otago region customers search for. Every campaign is built on that map, not on a generic New Zealand template.
Senior Team, No Hand-Offs
Your Dunedin account is run by a senior strategist with the designer, developer and media buyer on the same in-house team. No white-label subcontractors, no junior account executives learning on your budget, and no waiting a week for a change to ship.
Reporting Tied to Revenue
Monthly Looker Studio dashboards show Dunedin leads, calls, bookings and revenue by channel — not vanity metrics. You see which keywords, ads and pages produced customers, and budget moves toward what works every fortnight.
500+ Brands Since 2010
Fifteen-plus years and 500+ brands across seven countries means we have already solved most of the problems a Dunedin education or tourism business will hit: seasonality, attribution, ad-account suspensions, and site migrations that lose rankings.
Available in Your Hours
Account management runs in NZST mornings, which overlap our Edmonton evening shift. Weekly check-ins on Google Meet, day-to-day questions answered on Slack or WhatsApp, and quarterly strategy reviews with the senior team — no offshore ticket queue.
New Zealand Compliance by Default
Forms, email and ad targeting are built to the Privacy Act 2020 and the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act from the start. Consent, unsubscribe handling and data retention are set up correctly before the first campaign goes live.
What makes Dunedin a distinct market for digital marketing?
With 10,000+ businesses competing for 135,000 residents, Dunedin rewards marketers who understand its education and healthcare economy and its commercial geography from The Octagon to Port Chalmers. Here is how we read the market before we spend a dollar of your budget.
Dunedin's economy shapes who is searching
New Zealand's university city and Scottish heritage centre. Employers such as University of Otago, Southern DHB, Dunedin City Council and Fisher & Paykel set the tone for B2B demand, while education, healthcare and tourism drive most consumer searches. Local growth of around 2.5% a year and digital adoption near 82% mean more buyers are researching online before they call anyone.

Commercial districts we target in Dunedin
Intent differs from one part of Dunedin to another. A campaign for Dunedin City Centre should not share creative or bids with one for Mosgiel. We map the areas you serve — Dunedin City Centre, Mosgiel, South Dunedin, Brockville and Green Island — and build location pages, Google Business Profile coverage and geo-targeted ads for each one that matters to your revenue.
Dunedin City Centre: dedicated landing page, map-pack targeting and radius ads
Mosgiel: dedicated landing page, map-pack targeting and radius ads
South Dunedin: dedicated landing page, map-pack targeting and radius ads
Brockville: dedicated landing page, map-pack targeting and radius ads
What Dunedin buyers search for
Demand in Dunedin clusters around queries like "digital marketing agency Dunedin" and "SEO for education sector Dunedin", alongside the "near me" and "in Dunedin" variants of every service you offer. We build the keyword map from live search data for Dunedin, Mosgiel, and the Otago region, then prioritise the terms with buying intent over the ones with vanity volume.
Service + "Dunedin" and service + "near me" keyword clusters
Comparison and review queries on Yellow NZ and NoCowboys
Voice and AI-assistant queries answered with structured FAQ content
Directories and platforms that matter in New Zealand
Beyond Google, Dunedin customers check Google Business Profile, Yellow NZ, NoCowboys and Neighbourly before choosing a provider. We claim, complete and monitor these listings, keep name-address-phone data consistent, and run a review-generation process so your Dunedin profile reflects the work you actually do.
Dunedin Insight
How does TML run digital marketing for Dunedin businesses?
Our Dunedin playbook is deliberately unglamorous: fix the technical foundation, dominate the map pack around The Octagon, run paid campaigns with tight geo-targeting, and report on leads rather than impressions. It is the same system that has grown 500+ brands since 2010.
Local SEO and Google Business Profile for Dunedin
We start with the map pack, because that is where most Dunedin service searches convert. Categories, services, photos and posts are tuned for The Octagon-area searches; location pages carry LocalBusiness schema; and a review programme keeps fresh, genuine ratings arriving every month.
Google Business Profile audit, categories and weekly posts
Location pages for The Octagon, University of Otago and George Street
Citation clean-up and review generation workflow
Paid media sized to Dunedin auction prices
Dunedin clicks are not cheap, so we optimise for qualified leads rather than raw traffic. Search campaigns are split by service line, geo-fenced to Dunedin, Mosgiel, and the Otago region, and backed by landing pages that match the query — with NZ$ budgets moved weekly toward the campaigns producing customers.
Content and social that sounds like Dunedin
Generic New Zealand creative underperforms in Dunedin. We reference the places, employers and seasons your customers recognise — University of Otago, University of Otago, education cycles — and produce video, carousels and articles in-house so the brand stays consistent across every channel.
Measurement your finance team will trust
GA4, Search Console, call tracking and CRM events are wired before any budget goes live. Monthly reports show Dunedin leads and revenue by channel, and consent is captured under the Privacy Act 2020, so the data you optimise on is both accurate and lawful.
GA4 + Search Console + call tracking configured on day one
Dunedin's economy is built on education, healthcare, tourism and tech startups, with employers such as University of Otago, Southern DHB and Dunedin City Council shaping both the B2B market and consumer spending across Dunedin, Mosgiel, and the Otago region. TML works with businesses in every one of those sectors, plus the retail, healthcare, professional-services and e-commerce companies that serve Dunedin's 135,000 residents. Each industry gets its own keyword map, creative approach and compliance checklist rather than a one-size campaign.

How TML works with Dunedin businesses
01
Discover
Two-week intake covering your Dunedin market, a GA4 and Search Console audit, a competitor teardown of the education and healthcare players already ranking, and a review of your existing site and ad accounts. You leave with a written diagnosis, not a sales deck.
02
Strategy
A 90-day roadmap that names the channels, the Dunedin areas to prioritise — The Octagon and University of Otago first — the KPIs, and the budget split. It lives in a shared workspace your team can read and edit.
03
Build
Pages, campaigns, creative and tracking are built by the in-house team with the Privacy Act 2020 consent and accessibility handled from the first commit. Every asset is reviewed by a senior before it ships to a Dunedin audience.
04
Launch
Work ships in two-week sprints: paid media is live by week two; new pages and creative land through week six. Analytics, call tracking and CRM events are confirmed before any media budget activates.
05
Scale
Monthly reports tied to Dunedin revenue, fortnightly tactical reviews in NZST mornings, which overlap our Edmonton evening shift, and quarterly strategy resets. Winning channels and areas get more budget; losing ones are cut within the week.

D2C Bags & Accessories
Premium Bag D2C Brand — full e-commerce build + 5× organic traffic
A premium bag and backpack label came to us with a Shopify theme that converted at 0.6%, paid ads burning through ad spend with no attribution, and zero organic search presence. We rebuilt the storefront on a custom Next.js + headless Shopify stack, redesigned the product pages around a clean editorial layout, shot every SKU in our in-house studio, and shipped 40+ SEO-optimised category and lookbook pages. Within 90 days organic traffic grew 5×, Meta and Google ROAS lifted from 1.4× to 3.2×, and average order value climbed 28% on the back of bundle merchandising and improved size-fit content.
₹0 to ₹42L monthly revenue · 4.1× ROAS in 6 months
A sustainable stainless-steel water bottle brand launching needed everything from scratch — naming refinement, packaging, a D2C-ready website, paid social, and influencer-led content. We built the brand identity, shipped a Next.js storefront with native checkout, ran a 60-creator UGC seeding campaign across Instagram and YouTube Shorts, and stood up Meta and Google Shopping engines from day one. Six months post-launch, the brand crossed ₹42L in monthly revenue with a steady 4.1× blended ROAS, 38% repeat-purchase rate, and stocked listings on Amazon, Flipkart, and three offline retail chains.
12× DAU · ₹3.40 CPL on Meta · 2.8× repeat-purchase
A homegrown snack and chips brand selling grilled potato chips and savoury mixes was stuck on a generic page-builder site that loaded in 6.4 seconds and ranked for nothing. We rebuilt the storefront with playful, packaging-led art direction, integrated Blinkit, Zepto, and Instamart product feeds, and ran a Punjabi-Hindi-English creative test on Meta. Daily active users climbed 12× over four months, Meta cost-per-lead dropped to ₹3.40 on top-of-funnel reels, and repeat-purchase hit 2.8× — driving the brand into 1,200+ quick-commerce dark stores across north India.

What Our Clients Say.
G
Gurpreet Sandhu
Managing Director, Sandhu Properties
“We were spending almost 2 lakhs a month on Google Ads with barely any leads. TML rebuilt our campaigns from scratch — within 60 days our cost per lead dropped by 40% and we started getting 8-10 qualified calls a day. Genuinely wish we had found them sooner.”
Google Ads
N
Natasha D'Souza
Founder, Bloom Interiors
“Our old website looked like it was built in 2015. TML designed a completely new site that actually represents who we are. Within a month of launch, we noticed people spending way more time on the site and our inquiry form submissions doubled.”
Website Development
A
Advocate Rajesh Mehra
Senior Partner, Mehra & Associates
“I run a small law firm and had zero online presence. TML set up our Google Business Profile, built local landing pages, and ran a targeted SEO campaign. Six months later we rank on page one for 'lawyer in Chandigarh' and three other terms. Real results.”
SEO
H
Harman Brar
Owner, The Urban Kitchen
“What impressed me most was how they actually understood our restaurant business. They didn't just run ads — they built a whole strategy around weekday offers, Google Maps optimization, and Instagram content. Our weekday footfall went up by about 35%.”
Social Media Marketing
S
Simran Kaur
Marketing Head, CloudNine EduTech
“I had been working with another agency for over a year and my website wasn't ranking for anything meaningful. Switched to TML and within four months they had us on page one for our top five keywords. The difference in organic traffic has been night and day.”
SEO
A
Ankit Verma
Co-Founder, PureRoots Organics
“TML handled our complete rebrand — logo, brand guidelines, packaging, everything. They took the time to actually understand our vision instead of just delivering generic templates. Our new packaging alone has gotten us into two new retail chains.”
Branding
T
Tanya Malhotra
Director, Glow Skin Clinic
“We needed someone to manage our social media because honestly we had no time for it. TML took it over completely — content planning, design, posting, engagement. Our Instagram went from 1,200 followers to over 11,000 in about eight months. The quality of content they put out is genuinely impressive.”

J
Jaskaran Gill
Independent Artist, Gill Music
“We launched a new Punjabi track and TML handled the entire digital promotion — Spotify pitching, Instagram reels strategy, YouTube ads. The song crossed 500K streams in the first month. These guys really understand the music industry.”

M
Mark Thompson
Owner, Thompson Roofing Co.
“I was skeptical about hiring a marketing agency from India for our Edmonton-based business, but TML proved me wrong. They understood the Canadian market, delivered on time every single week, and our lead generation has gone up by 3x since we started working together.”

FAQ
Digital marketing agency Dunedin — common questions
Is TML a full-service digital marketing agency in Dunedin?
Yes. TML is a full-service digital marketing agency and company serving Dunedin: SEO, Google Ads, Meta and social media marketing, branding, web development, lead generation and content marketing, all delivered by one in-house team of 70+ specialists. You can hire us for a single channel or as your complete marketing department.
Do you have an office in Dunedin?
We do not have a walk-in office in Dunedin. TML is headquartered in Chandigarh with a Canadian office in Edmonton, Alberta, and serves Dunedin clients remotely in NZST mornings, which overlap our Edmonton evening shift. Kick-off, weekly check-ins and quarterly reviews run on Google Meet; day-to-day communication is on Slack or WhatsApp. For most Dunedin businesses that is faster than a local agency's meeting cadence.
Which is the best digital marketing agency in Dunedin?
The best agency for a Dunedin business is the one with a track record in your industry, transparent reporting, and a senior team that actually does the work. TML has served 500+ brands since 2010 across seven countries, holds a 4.9-star Google rating, and runs every Dunedin account with a senior strategist rather than a junior account manager.
How long does SEO take to work in Dunedin?
Local Dunedin terms — "education Dunedin", "near The Octagon", "near me" — usually reach page one within four to seven months with consistent technical work, location pages and reviews. Competitive New Zealand-wide or national terms take eight to fourteen months. We publish a 90-day plan up front so you can see what ships each week.
Which industries do you work with in Dunedin?
Dunedin's strongest sectors — education, healthcare, tourism and tech startups — make up most of our enquiries from the area, and we also work with retail, healthcare, professional services and e-commerce brands. If your customers are the workforce of University of Otago and Southern DHB or the businesses that supply them, we already know how to reach them.
Do you work with small businesses in Dunedin?
Yes. A large share of our New Zealand clients are owner-run businesses. Small Dunedin companies usually start with one channel — Google Business Profile optimisation and local SEO, or a tightly geo-targeted Google Ads campaign — and add channels as leads and revenue grow. Every engagement is scoped to what the business can act on.
Are your campaigns compliant with New Zealand marketing law?
Compliance is built in, not sold as an add-on. Forms, email sequences and ad targeting for Dunedin clients follow the Privacy Act 2020 and the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act. Consent capture, unsubscribe handling and data retention are configured correctly before any campaign goes live.
What does the first month with TML look like for a Dunedin business?
Week one is discovery: analytics and Search Console audit, competitor review across Dunedin, and stakeholder interviews. Week two delivers a written 90-day roadmap with channel mix and KPIs. From week three, campaigns, pages and creative start shipping in fortnightly sprints, with the first report at the end of month one.
