Everyone does that. Instead, here's our story, everything we do, exactly what happens in your first week, and some of the sites we've built. If you get to the bottom and still want to talk, give us a call.

The story
We started GYA in 2015. Back then Brett and I both worked at Myer during the day and built the agency at night. Brett was General Manager looking after NSW and ACT, a store portfolio worth over a billion dollars. I was a store manager running multiple stores across NSW, a bit over 60 million between them.
We took what we learnt inside one of Australia's biggest retailers, the targets, the accountability, the "why is this number down and what are we doing about it by Thursday" conversations, and used it to run a digital marketing company. That conversation is the one most agencies have quietly designed themselves out of. We kept it.
We never set out to work in a niche. Before the first dentist there were cafes, retailers, tradies, gyms and professional services. Then about seven years ago we took on a dental practice, The Caringbah Dentists, run by Dr Ram. It went really well. Well enough that the practice expanded, people noticed, and the referrals kept coming.
Today we manage over 100 dental clinics and around 30 other industries. Dental is what we're known for. It's not all we do.
We genuinely get anxiety when your books are empty. So we go and fix it.
Everything we do
Search, Shopping, Performance Max and YouTube, built per service and per suburb, tracked to the enquiry rather than the click.
The map listing first, because that's where the clicks are, then the technical work and the content underneath it.
Fast, mobile first, built to rank and to convert. You own everything.
Meta, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn. Paid and organic, with creative shot at your business rather than pulled from a stock library.
SmileOX answers, qualifies and scores every enquiry, so your team only speaks to people ready to buy.
Identity, print, signage and ad creative, so the site and the sign out the front look like the same business.
Brand films, website banners and social content, shot and edited by us.
Automations, recall and reactivation.
Website copy, service pages, blogs and ad copy that sounds like a person wrote it.
Before you call
If you recognised more than two of those, the call is worth twenty minutes.
Your first week
Not a proposal. This is the sequence. We might take a breather in between, but you get the idea.
Calls, enquiries, your Google profile, your suburb, who's outbidding you. No fluff, just the numbers.
Which services, which suburbs, what budget, what we expect and by when.
Map listing sorted, site structured so Google and the AI assistants actually understand what you do.
Built per service, per suburb, landing on pages that convert.
Video and stills that look like your business, not stock.
Your highest value services in front of the right people in your area.
Every enquiry answered in under a minute, nurtured, scored, and handed to your team ready to book.
Then the part that matters more than the first week. We call you every fortnight, look at the numbers together, and change what needs changing.
The formula
Everyone says they do it differently. Even Elon Musk, with actual rocket science, fails time and time again. So we keep it simple and do it properly.
Long term SEO with local SEO at the core, and future-proof your brand for AI search. This is the part that keeps working when you pause the ads.
We catch up with you every fortnight to see if it's working. We still send reports, but we don't hide behind them. You'll always know what we're doing.
SmileOX nurtures and triages every lead, then your team takes over with people who are ready to buy.
There are two ways someone finds you online. They search, or they see you. Fix those two and you're halfway there. The rest is a funnel that makes sure nothing slips through the cracks.
If you read all of this, it's probably worth talking to us about it. Call 1300 889 840.
Recent work
Real client websites, built by us. Each one shaped around what that business actually needed to get out of it.

SmileOX
Our own platform. Not a reseller badge on somebody else's software.
The expensive part was never generating the enquiry. It's the next five minutes. An enquiry answered inside a minute behaves completely differently to one answered the next morning, and most businesses answer the next morning, because the phone rang while everyone was busy.
SmileOX answers instantly, from any source. It asks the questions your team would ask, scores the enquiry hot, warm or cool, nurtures the ones that aren't ready, texts back the calls you missed, and hands over to a human the moment a human is needed.
Your team only speaks to people who are ready to book.

Questions we get asked
No. Dental is what we're known for, and we also look after around thirty other industries, from cafes and retailers to trades, gyms and professional services.
Not if they're a dental practice within 7km of you.
Yes. We're Sydney based and we work Australia wide.

We call you every fortnight, look at the numbers together, and change what needs changing.
