Our story
Folio Manager started in 2020 with a simple goal: to empower business growth through digital marketing that is effective, affordable and easy to understand. Many of the business owners we met had been burned by agencies that locked them into long contracts, sent confusing reports and built websites they could not update. We set out to do the opposite.
We began with WordPress websites and search engine optimisation, and grew into paid advertising, social media, hosting and IT support as our clients' needs grew. Along the way we learned that the best results come when the website, the marketing and the follow-up all work together, so we built a team that can handle all three.
Today, search is changing faster than at any time since Google arrived. Customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews for recommendations, and expect instant replies when they enquire. That is why we now combine traditional SEO with answer engine and generative engine optimisation, and build AI agents that answer calls, follow up leads and handle admin, so our clients are both found and able to respond.
How we work
Plain English, always
No jargon-filled reports. We explain what we did, what it achieved and what comes next in language everyone on your team understands.
You own your assets
Your domain, website, ad accounts, analytics and data stay in your business name. If you ever move on, everything goes with you.
Honest and compliant
No fake reviews, no guaranteed rankings, no spammy shortcuts. Our work respects the Australian Consumer Law, the Privacy Act and the Spam Act.
Practical about AI
We use AI where it genuinely saves time or wins customers, with clear limits and a person in the loop, not because it is fashionable.
Who we help
We work mainly with Australian small and medium businesses: trades and home services, medical and allied health practices, professional services firms, real estate and property managers, ecommerce and retail brands, and B2B companies. Our team is based in Brisbane, and we work with clients in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne and across Australia.
