Hamilton, New Zealand

AI Marketing Consultant
Hamilton

I'm Tom Hall-Taylor — an NZ-based AI marketing consultant and fractional CMO. I work with select Hamilton and Waikato businesses to build marketing operations that compound over time, not campaigns that stop when the budget runs out.

What I Do for Hamilton Businesses

Fractional CMO

Senior marketing strategy without a full-time hire. I embed in your business, own the marketing function, and drive results.

AI Marketing Systems

Build AI-powered systems that handle content, ads, SEO, and reporting at scale — so you compound, not just campaign.

Paid Advertising

Meta Ads and Google Ads managed with AI optimisation. Data-driven, not set-and-forget.

Growth Strategy

Clear positioning, channel strategy, and 90-day roadmaps built around your business — not a cookie-cutter playbook.

Why Hamilton Businesses Work With Me

Hamilton is New Zealand's fourth-largest city and one of its fastest-growing. The Waikato region has a diverse economy — agribusiness, manufacturing, education, health, and a rapidly expanding professional services sector. But Hamilton businesses often get overlooked by agencies that focus on Auckland or offshore markets.

I built Junction Media differently. I work with a maximum of 3–5 clients at any time. That cap is intentional — it's how I give each business the attention and strategic depth that actually moves the needle. You deal directly with me, not an account manager in a large agency machine.

And because I use AI systems for execution — content, reporting, ad management — I can deliver what a 10-person agency delivers, at a fraction of the cost. That matters especially in a regional market like Hamilton where marketing budgets are often tighter and ROI expectations are higher.

A Result Worth Mentioning

+30%

Above previous store record

Deep Blue Health — a New Zealand supplement brand — hit their best revenue month ever in November 2025. We built AI-native marketing systems across Google Ads, Meta Ads, SEO, content, and customer support. That was the result: 30% above their previous all-time record.

Common Questions

Are you based in Hamilton?

I'm based in Auckland but work with businesses across New Zealand, including Hamilton and the wider Waikato region. Most of our work happens remotely via video calls and shared systems — location isn't a constraint for modern marketing strategy.

What does an engagement look like?

I work on monthly retainer. We start with a strategy session to understand your business, goals, and current marketing state. From there I build a 90-day roadmap and we execute against it — with weekly check-ins and full visibility into what's happening.

How is this different from a Hamilton marketing agency?

I work with 3–5 clients at a time — not 30. You deal directly with me, not an account manager. And because I use AI systems for execution, the cost is lower without compromising quality. Think fractional CMO with an AI team behind it.

What's the minimum commitment?

I work in 3-month minimum engagements. Marketing compounds over time — 30-day sprints don't build the systems that actually change a business.
