Bang Digital has been selected by Google to join its International Growth Programme (IGAP).
The invite-only agency partnership program opens the doors to expanding the company’s values and skills on a global scale, providing exclusive tools, resources and data to help their clients expand their campaigns internationally.
As a result of the pandemic, working remotely and across continents and time zones has become doable, and expanding internationally has become a top strategic goal for businesses wanting to grow and maintain a profitable business.
The IGAP program demonstrates how the teams at Google can support the partner ecosystem in driving international expansion for their clients and themselves.
Renae Lunjevich, founder and managing director of the Perth-based digital marketing agency, said the company prides itself on creating solid partnerships, combining digital expertise and business marketing strategy foundations to strive for the ongoing success of its clients.
“Google’s International Growth Program is an exciting opportunity for us to be part of, and we are humbled that Google invited us to participate.
“Over 15 years of helping Perth businesses achieve online marketing growth has been recognised,” Lunjevich added.
Bang Digital search manager Oliver Tinley emphasises that the opportunity opens the doors to expanding Bang Digital’s values and skills on a global scale.
“It’s an honour to be among one of the 16 agencies selected to be a part of the Google Partner International Growth Program.
“Being the only agency from WA that is part of the program, we’re excited for what this new opportunity can bring for both us and our clients throughout 2023 and beyond,” Tinley added.
Google Partner agencies have completed all IGAP training certifications and met partner customer and performance requirements.
Bang Digital officially launched in 2007, after Lunjevich arrived in Perth from working in the London digital space. Renae rented office space in a web development firm, secured Bang’s first portfolio of SEO and SEM clients; some of which are still working with the agency today.
The company has grown organically, introducing website development, social media and customer experience to support the success of the digital performance campaigns.
