For years, brands tried to split the difference by hiring a PR agency for visibility, an affiliate manager for commerce coverage and affiliate partnerships, and a media buyer for paid social scale. Seven years ago, I, in fact, was one of them as the former VP of Marketing and Founding Team at Ritual. On paper, it made sense. In practice, I found it created silos, competing agendas, and a lack of shared accountability and synergy across agencies and partners.

Australia's digital scene is buzzing, and some of the country's most talented agencies are leading the way. The Netty Awards are once again shining a light on these standouts, celebrating the creativity, strategy, and results that help brands capture attention and make a lasting impact online. From scroll-stopping social campaigns to clever digital strategies that drive real results, these agencies show that great work is as much about genuine connection as it is about clicks and follows.
