A founder-led agency that actually does the work.
Cliqe is a Gold Coast marketing agency built for Australian service businesses and consumer brands. Started by two founders who got sick of watching good operators get burnt by generic agencies. We run lean, we work directly with you, and the people on your account are the people on the call.
Built for the businesses no-one else gets right.
Adrian and Lochie spent years watching service businesses get the same generic agency treatment. Cookie-cutter strategies. Junior account managers who'd never run a Google Ads campaign for a tradie. Reports full of vanity metrics that didn't translate to leads or jobs.
So in 2023 they started Cliqe with a narrower remit: service businesses and consumer brands. Electricians, plumbers, builders, landscapers. Lawyers, accountants, dentists. Multi-store retail brands looking for serious growth. Different industries, same fundamentals: high-intent search, transparent measurement, and execution that produces revenue.
The agency stays small on purpose. Founder-led across every account. No hand-offs, no junior account managers, no awkward agency politics. You talk to the person who builds your campaigns.
The team you'll actually work with.
Two founders. No account manager middlemen. You get the people building your campaigns on the call.
Adrian Fowler
Business development, marketing leadership, and creative direction.
Adrian leads paid media, branding, and overall agency direction at Cliqe. He's the person on the strategy call, on the brand workshops, and on the Google Ads dashboard. Before Cliqe he led marketing across multiple businesses including a national consumer brand.
Lochie Burgdorf
Branding, content strategy, and business building.
Lochie leads content, SEO, and the technical builds at Cliqe. He's the person writing the case studies, building the websites, and shipping the SEO content. Background in product, brand, and turning rough ideas into shipped systems.
Four principles, no exceptions.
No fluff, just results
Leads, jobs, revenue. Not impressions, reach, or "engagement". Every report ties spend to outcome. If the maths doesn't work, we tell you.
Specialist, not generalist
Service businesses and consumer brands only. Trades, professional services, dental, retail. We turn down work that doesn't fit because the focus is what makes the work good.
Transparent everything
You see the ad spend. You see the conversions. You see what's working and what's not. No hidden retainer markups, no opaque "platform fees".
Long-term partners
Most clients are with us for years, not months. We'd rather build something compounding than chase one-off projects. Month-to-month though, no lock-in.
