Your business is good.
Your marketing should be too.
Kāpiti & Wellington Marketing
Hello, I'm Lucy
Marketing without all the mucking around.
I’ve been working in marketing for more than 15 years, and I’ve helped hundreds of New Zealand businesses with their websites, Google presence and marketing.
But Ambrose Marketing isn’t a big agency.
It’s me.
You deal directly with me, I get to know your business, and I bring in trusted specialists behind the scenes where needed.
That means you get the expertise you’d expect from an agency, without being passed between an account manager, project manager, strategist and whoever else happens to be copied into the email.
One person. Straight answers. Good marketing.
So... what do you actually need?
“My website needs help.”
Website Designfrom $5,000 + GST
Maybe it’s old. Maybe it doesn’t represent how good your business actually is. Maybe you’re embarrassed to send people there. Or maybe it’s perfectly pretty… but nobody bloody contacts you.
I design strategic WordPress websites that look great, are easy to use and are built around what matters most:
turning visitors into customers.
“I need more customers.”
Google AdsClicks don't pay the bills. Customers do
You know people are searching Google for what you do. The question is whether they’re finding you — or your competitors. I set up and manage Google Ads campaigns for businesses that want more enquiries, phone calls and customers.
And importantly, I track what happens after the click. Calls. Forms. Email clicks. Actual enquiries. Because 300 clicks sounds lovely. I’d rather know whether anyone became a customer.
Not quite sure what you need?
That’s okay too. Sometimes you know something isn’t working — you’re just not sure what the problem actually is. Maybe your website isn’t bringing in enquiries. Maybe you’re nowhere to be found on Google. Or maybe you’re wondering whether throwing some money at Google Ads would actually help. Before you spend anything, I’ll take a look.
Free website health check
Is your website actually doing its job?
Send me your website and I'll personally take a look and identify the 3 biggest things I'd change to help it generate more enquiries and perform better in Google and AI search.
No automated 47-page audit.
No confusing marketing report.
No sales pitch pretending to be free advice.
Just me, opening your website and telling you what I actually think.
Yep. A real human actually looks at it!
Google ads opportunity check
Should you actually be using Google Ads?
Google Ads can be brilliant for some businesses.
For others?
I'd tell you to keep your money.
Tell me what your business does, where you operate, what service you want more customers for and roughly what a new customer is worth.
I'll take a look at the search opportunity and tell you whether I think Google Ads is worth exploring.
Sometimes I'll say yes.
Sometimes I'll say maybe — but we need to fix something else first.
And sometimes I'll tell you I wouldn't spend your money there.
Good marketing sometimes means telling you NOT to buy something.
Websites that actually do something.
Your website shouldn’t just exist because someone told you every business needs one.
It should have a job.
Maybe that’s generating enquiries.
Getting phone calls.
Taking bookings.
Selling products.
Building trust.
Or helping someone choose you instead of the six other businesses they just opened in separate tabs.
That’s what we build around.

WordPress

Google Ads. Minus the mystery.
Yep. I actually look at the numbers.
Google Ads can be brilliant.
They can also be a spectacular way to give Google money if they’re not set up properly. 😂
I help businesses use Google Ads to reach people who are already searching for what they offer.
We’ll look at what people are searching, where they’re located, what services you actually want more of and what happens when someone lands on your website.
Then we track the important stuff.
Not just impressions.
Not just clicks.
Local businesses are my thing.
Tradies
Health businesses
Professional services
Builders
Accountants
Roofers
Medical centres
Home services
Local organisations
And plenty of businesses that don’t fit neatly into a category. After working with hundreds of NZ businesses, I’ve learned something: You don’t need fancy marketing. You need the right people to find you, understand why you’re good and know what to do next. That’s what I’m here for.
Your website called. It wants an upgrade
Some pretty websites. And some pretty good results.
Why Ambrose Marketing?
Because I actually care whether your marketing works.
I’m not interested in selling you something because it’s the service I happen to offer.
Sometimes I’ll tell you to run Google Ads.
Sometimes I’ll tell you your website needs rebuilding first.
Sometimes I’ll tell you I wouldn’t spend the money at all.
Because I’d rather build long-term relationships with good businesses than sell people marketing they don’t need.
