Around ten years ago, Cruz Marketing was a humble side hustle. It all started as a part-time project for small business owners who wanted a bit of extra help with marketing. Back then, my “office” was a blend of makeshift desks and coffee-stained papers scattered between cafes on the Mornington Peninsula. As it turned out, though, there were a lot of you out there who were looking for a down-to-earth, results-driven approach to marketing. So, what started as a small passion project soon turned into a fully-fledged business. Fast-forward a decade, and here we are—a team of passionate locals, ready to make marketing easy and effective for small businesses like yours.
Today, Cruz Marketing has grown into a team of skilled professionals, most of whom come from small business backgrounds themselves. We know what it’s like to juggle everything from sales and customer service to bookkeeping and late-night brainstorming sessions. That’s why we’re here: to be an extension of your team, share our expertise, and make your marketing a whole lot easier.
As proud locals of the Mornington Peninsula, we care deeply about supporting our community. Whether you’re a start-up or a well-established business, our focus is on delivering marketing solutions that make sense, generate real results, and are as unique as your business. We’re serious about your success, but we don’t mind having a bit of fun along the way, either.

If you’ve been in business for a while and things have become stagnant, or if you want to improve and reach the next level, our Business Elevate package is the ideal solution.
With this package, your dedicated Elevate Assistant will become an expert in your business. Our team will then work on ways to improve, refine, measure, and report on these processes.
This is a short to medium term option to see huge ongoing progress in your business.
The Business Support package is popular with our real estate and trade clients, as it allows you to focus on what brings the most value to your business. It provides the ongoing management of time-consuming administrative and operational tasks, including:
– Client management and onboarding
– Invoicing
– Documentation and contracts
– Supplier liaison
– Sales processes and documentation
– General administration
All services can be delivered fully remotely or in-person, providing a flexible alternative to hiring part-time staff.
You’ll be assigned a dedicated assistant based on your requirements, with flexible options such as set hours per week, fortnight, or month, or on an ad-hoc or project basis.
A combination of the two. A little self-explanatory.
Your dedicated assistant will become an integral part of your team. This is ideal for the Business Support package if you require ongoing assistance for a half or full day per week without the need to hire a new employee.
