    A PR & social media agency with all the connections, delivering clever campaigns and driving ROI for your brand.

    An ‘undertow’ is a strong pull in a different direction. To create it you must first know the way the flow runs, then forge a surprising new route. This is the way Undertow Media conducts its day-to-day business. While this is true and makes sense of our name, we know even one-man bands with no clients can say clever things. You’re here because you want to know we’re credible. While somewhat ironically we don’t like tooting our own horn, as a quick summary agency founder Greer Bland started the New Zealand business in 2013 after running the consumer division of a large Australian agency comprising 40 staff. Before she left to bring all she learnt back home, she had already signed up a number of clients who needed NZ support and knew her style. From there, she convinced businesses that had never had an on-the-ground agency to come on board. Many of these clients are still with us today. Long-standing senior team members Gina Williams and Hayley Urry were brought on board to steer the ship. Through their leadership, we’ve expanded our services to be the leader in influencer relations, copy that sings on social, smart news plays that get the 6pm slot, content that converts and events that are talked about for weeks. We’ve since built an almost faultless team of 13 professionals that have helped rally a gold standard in communications across every possible service we provide. Every day our epic team enters our Grey Lynn studio and showroom to tell stories and make hay for their clients. We compete against ourselves to be better every day.

Frequently Asked Questions.


New Zealand companies can significantly enhance their marketing strategies by leveraging user-generated content (UGC) from events. This approach not only boosts engagement but also provides authentic, locally-relevant content that resonates with Kiwi audiences. Here's how companies can effectively use UGC from events in their broader marketing strategies:

  1. Encourage participation with event-specific hashtags: Create unique, catchy hashtags for your events (e.g., #KiwiEventMagic or #NZEventScene) and promote their use across all marketing channels. This makes it easy to track and collect UGC.
  2. Set up photo opportunities: Design Instagram-worthy spots or interactive installations at your events. For example, a backdrop featuring iconic New Zealand landscapes or a fun prop wall with Kiwiana elements can encourage attendees to take and share photos.
  3. Run contests and giveaways: Incentivize UGC creation by offering prizes for the best photos, videos, or stories shared during the event. This could include uniquely New Zealand experiences or products as rewards.
  4. Live streaming and real-time sharing: Encourage attendees to live stream parts of the event or share real-time updates. This creates a sense of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and can drive engagement even from those not physically present.
  5. Curate and showcase UGC: Display user-generated content on screens during the event and feature the best submissions on your company's social media profiles and website afterwards. This not only provides social proof but also makes attendees feel valued.
  6. Repurpose UGC for marketing materials: Use high-quality UGC in your post-event marketing materials, such as highlight reels, blog posts, or even in print advertisements. Always ensure you have permission to use the content.
  7. Collaborate with local influencers: Partner with New Zealand influencers or micro-influencers to create and share content from your events. Their followers are likely to engage with and share this content, expanding your reach.
  8. User testimonials and stories: Collect and showcase attendee testimonials or stories about their event experience. These can be powerful tools for future event promotion and building brand trust.
  9. Create UGC-focused email campaigns: Develop email marketing campaigns that highlight the best UGC from your events. This can help maintain engagement with attendees post-event and attract interest for future events.
  10. Analyze UGC for insights: Use tools to analyze the UGC collected from your events. This can provide valuable insights into attendee preferences, popular aspects of your events, and areas for improvement.

By implementing these strategies, New Zealand companies can effectively leverage user-generated content from events to create more authentic, engaging, and locally-relevant marketing campaigns. According to a study by Stackla, 79% of people say UGC highly impacts their purchasing decisions, making it a powerful tool for event marketing in New Zealand.

Remember to always respect privacy laws and obtain necessary permissions when using UGC. Additionally, consider the unique aspects of New Zealand culture and values when implementing these strategies to ensure they resonate with local audiences.



Creating memorable and shareable moments at marketing events is crucial for New Zealand event marketers to maximize impact and ROI. Here are some effective strategies tailored to the Kiwi context:

  1. Incorporate Kiwi culture and values: Integrate elements of New Zealand's rich cultural heritage, such as Māori traditions or local art, into your event. This not only creates a unique experience but also resonates with the local audience.
  2. Leverage New Zealand's natural beauty: Utilize the country's stunning landscapes as backdrops for photo opportunities or outdoor activities. This could include hosting parts of your event in iconic locations like Queenstown or the Bay of Islands.
  3. Interactive technology experiences: Implement cutting-edge tech like augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) to create immersive experiences. For example, a wine brand could use AR to showcase their vineyards in Marlborough.
  4. Sustainable event practices: Align with New Zealand's clean, green image by incorporating eco-friendly elements. This could include using locally-sourced, sustainable materials or implementing a zero-waste policy.
  5. Collaborative activities: Create opportunities for attendees to work together, reflecting the Kiwi spirit of community. This could be through team-building exercises or collaborative art installations.
  6. Local celebrity or influencer involvement: Partner with well-known New Zealand personalities or micro-influencers to create buzz and encourage social media sharing.
  7. Unique F&B experiences: Showcase New Zealand's renowned food and beverage offerings. Consider food stations featuring local delicacies or wine tastings from boutique NZ wineries.
  8. Gamification and challenges: Implement event-wide games or challenges that encourage exploration and interaction. This could be a digital scavenger hunt showcasing Kiwi trivia or product information.
  9. Personalized experiences: Utilize data and technology to create tailored experiences for attendees. This could include personalized agendas or customized product demonstrations.
  10. Social media integration: Create dedicated spaces for social media content creation, complete with branded hashtags and photo props that reflect New Zealand themes.

To illustrate the effectiveness of these strategies, consider the following data:

Strategy Impact
Interactive Technology 70% increase in brand recall
Social Media Integration 3x more social shares compared to events without dedicated spaces
Local Celebrity Involvement 25% increase in event attendance
Sustainable Practices 80% of attendees reported improved brand perception

By implementing these strategies, Kiwi event marketers can create experiences that not only captivate attendees but also generate lasting buzz and positive brand associations. Remember to always measure the success of these tactics through post-event surveys, social media analytics, and lead generation metrics to continually refine your approach for future events.



When planning and executing international event marketing campaigns in New Zealand, there are several key considerations to keep in mind. As a hub for innovation and creativity in the Asia-Pacific region, New Zealand offers unique opportunities and challenges for international events. Here are the crucial factors to consider:

  1. Cultural Sensitivity and Local Customs: New Zealand has a rich cultural heritage, including Māori traditions. It's essential to incorporate and respect local customs in your event planning. This might include a traditional Māori welcome (pōwhiri) or integrating elements of Kiwi culture into your event design.
  2. Timing and Seasonality: Consider New Zealand's seasonal differences when planning international events. Remember that seasons are opposite to those in the Northern Hemisphere. Summer (December to February) is peak tourist season, while winter (June to August) can be ideal for indoor or alpine-themed events.
  3. Logistics and Infrastructure: While New Zealand has excellent infrastructure, its geographical isolation can present logistical challenges. Plan well in advance for shipping materials, equipment, and any specific requirements for your event.
  4. Sustainability Focus: New Zealand is known for its commitment to sustainability. Incorporate eco-friendly practices into your event planning to align with local values and regulations. This could include using local, sustainable suppliers and implementing waste reduction strategies.
  5. Technology and Innovation: New Zealand is a technologically advanced country. Leverage this by incorporating cutting-edge event technologies, such as virtual or hybrid event components, to enhance engagement and reach a wider audience.
  6. Compliance and Regulations: Familiarize yourself with New Zealand's event regulations, including health and safety standards, work visas for international staff, and any COVID-19 related protocols that may be in place.
  7. Marketing and Promotion: Tailor your marketing strategy to resonate with both local and international audiences. Utilize a mix of digital marketing, social media, and traditional channels popular in New Zealand. Consider partnering with local influencers or media outlets for broader reach.
  8. Networking and Partnerships: Collaborate with local event companies, suppliers, and industry associations. Organizations like Business Events New Zealand can provide valuable insights and connections.
  9. Budgeting and Currency Considerations: Account for currency exchange rates and potential fluctuations in your budget. Be aware of local pricing for services and adjust your budget accordingly.
  10. Attendee Experience: Create a unique experience that showcases New Zealand's attractions. Consider incorporating local experiences, such as wine tasting in Marlborough or a visit to Hobbiton for 'Lord of the Rings' fans, to make your event memorable.

By carefully considering these factors, event marketers can create successful international campaigns that resonate with both local and global audiences in New Zealand. Remember to stay flexible and adaptable, as international events often require quick problem-solving and adjustments on the go.
