Our mission

LISTEN to and COLLABORATE with local businesses, to offer expert guidance at each stage of their growth to best equip them for success.

Our purpose

With living in a small, but thriving, town it became obvious that small businesses need specialist marketing help as competition is becoming more and more prevalent. A certain standard of branding or website is now not only required, it’s expected.

We aim to SIMPLIFY problems by approaching them using creative thinking, logic and experience. The less time you spend on managing your marketing plan the more time you can spend on developing your business.

Our end goal is to make your business grow and to educate you along the way so you feel more EMPOWERED.

How we can help

Whether you are a small start-up or an established business, we can help with all aspects of marketing such as establishing a brand identity or designing a website.

How it
Began

Collaboration was founded in 2015 by Jan McPhedran, who has set up and sold a wide range of successful businesses in Wanaka over the last 20 + years.

Jan’s vision is to “make it simpler, faster and cheaper for local businesses to get it right” she wants to give them a better chance at success so they can contribute to the wonderful, diverse community we have in Wanaka.

In keeping with Wanaka’s diverse community, Jan’s assembled a team of specialists both locally and from around the world to help clients with their marketing needs. “This works really well, as our clients can go to bed one night and wake up with changes to their websites the next morning.”

Collaboration aims to make local business owners’ lives easier

47Frocks

‘Having someone to talk to outside of the business who understands me has been incredible. Collaboration helped me put processes in place that have led to a more confident team and an increase in sales. Now, when I think of ‘hiring’, it is no longer scary, but a manageable process.’

Dougal Allan

After having some incessant issues and shortfalls with my original website I made contact with the Collaboration team to get a review of my current website's performance. I found their response was efficient, very professional and informative. The solutions were made clear and it quickly became obvious to me that the Collaboration team were my best option to improve my website to better reflect my aims and objectives as well as streamlining communication channels with potential customers and clients.

Once the Collaboration team started the project I was impressed with how well they communicated and particularly how well they listened to my wants and needs while offering their professional advice and feedback along the way. The end result was an exciting new website that has exceeded my expectations and opened the door for a better brand profile and business growth. Thanks team!
