About
A small team, construction only.
A small team. Close to five years. Hundreds of builds across the Bay of Plenty, Waikato and Coromandel. Photo, video and the marketing that puts it to work, for builders who want the next client to find the proof.
How we got here
Why would someone from professional sport end up on building sites at six in the morning with a camera? Because he noticed something most of the industry had not.
Sam came out of professional sport and started a small agency with his brother. They worked across a lot of different industries, and one kept standing out. Construction was changing. A new generation of builders were starting their own companies and had to compete with names that had been around for decades, on nothing but word of mouth.
Building has always run on trust. Jobs came from a mate of a mate, and hardly anyone showed the work they were actually doing. So Onsite started with the simplest thing: get on site, shoot the build, put it where the next client will look. Running another business in the trades gave us a place to test every idea on ourselves first. The ones that worked became the offer. Today it runs from the shoot to the posting to the monthly report, and the goal has not moved: show the work, build trust, win the next job.
The team
A small team. One standard. Nobody between you and the person doing the work.
Sam O’Dea
Shoots the photos and video and runs the work. The person you deal with from the first site visit to the last post.
Josh
Films on site and cuts the video.
Issy
Runs admin and social media, so the posts go out when they should and nothing gets lost.
How we work
01
Show the work
Building runs on trust and word of mouth. We put the proof where a referral will look: the website, the socials, the Google listing. Be seen. Be trusted. Be who they call.
02
On site, around your programme
We work around the build, not the other way round. Nobody has to stop. One shoot every 60 days is enough to keep a company visible all year.
03
Content that keeps working
Content is an asset, not an expense. One shoot should still be earning in October for a house you finished in August. Close to five years and hundreds of builds say it does.
