Marine & water sports

Marketing for brands built on the water

We've ended up with a genuine speciality here — foiling, jet boats, marine parts, dealer networks. It's a strange corner of the market: your customers are global, your buyers are often dealers rather than riders, and the people selling to you usually don't understand the product.

yes, we actually get it

What makes marine different

  • Your customers are worldwide, but your website only speaks to New Zealand.
  • You're selling to dealers and to end users, and the site tries to do both in the same breath.
  • Nobody can find their nearest stockist, so the sale goes to whoever is easier to buy from.
  • The product is technical and visual, and a spec table doesn't do it justice.
  • Overseas buyers hit a site priced in NZD with no shipping answer and leave.
  • Seasonality is brutal, and there's nothing building demand in the off months.

What we actually build

Built for offshore buyers

Multi-region and multi-language where it earns its keep, so a European buyer doesn't bounce on a New Zealand-only site.

Dealer and stockist finders

A real map that gets people to their nearest dealer instead of leaving them to guess — and gives your dealers a reason to stay.

Product pages that do the selling

Video, real conditions, real riders, and the specs that actually matter — the way people buy gear, not the way catalogues list it.

A B2B channel, not just a shop

Separate paths for dealer enquiries and consumer sales, so a distributor gets what they need without wading through retail.

If buyers offshore can't find you or can't work out how to buy, that's fixable. Let's have a look at it.
