Over its 27 years of operation, the agency has worked with clients across various sectors, establishing itself within New Zealand’s digital marketing industry.[1]

History

Originally launched as Alexanders of New Zealand because the founder planned to also develop an export knitwear brand, the marketing consultancy quickly grew into an agency, and rebranded in 2000 to Alexanders Advertising. In 2004, a merino knitwear company was launched under the original brand. In 2009, witnessing the success of Google Ads, the agency rebranded to Alexanders Internet Marketing to reflect its shift from traditional marketing to a full-service digital offering. In 2017, the words “internet marketing” were in decline, and the company rebranded to Alexanders Digital Marketing. The agency relocated several times before settling at its current office in Merivale, Christchurch, from which it services clients in Auckland, Ashburton, Queenstown and Invercargill. Throughout its history, the company has evolved its services to match the evolution of media trends, including utilising AI, e-commerce marketing, content strategy, web design, and digital advertising strategies.
