Our experience with Eighty20 Partners has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we engaged with Aaron and his team, it was clear that they weren't just another marketing agency; they became an integral part of our team. In fact, it's not that they work for us – they work with us, which is how we at Zaleta also like to do business, hence it was a perfect fit.
One of the things that truly sets Eighty20 apart is their genuine commitment to understanding who we are as people. They took the time to get to know us inside and out, and it's clear that they put their heart and soul into branding our business. This personalised approach is what sets them apart from the rest. They listen, they adapt, and they constantly strive for excellence. It's evident that they genuinely care about our success. The results speak for themselves, and they are truly remarkable.

Eighty20 partners were recently engaged to provide market savvy experience to lead the organisation’s customer engagement reset. In consideration of the objective Eighty20 partners collaborated with the key stakeholders to provide a succinct roadmap to success.
This provided the opportunity for the executive to easily assess progress and deliverables. We can attest to their business sense and can do attitude that sorts the “wheat from the chaff” to determine the proper strategy and actions to achieve meaningful outcomes.

We engaged Eighty20 Partners 2 years ago to build commercial strategy for our sporting organisation, the Australian Cycling Academy (ACA), as at the time we were struggling to maintain the high costs involved with running the professional cycling academy.
Within 12 months of engagement of Eighty20, the ACA had grown more tham 30% in terms of revenue, employees, athletes and has solidified itself as one of the best cycling development programs in the country. It still continues to grow today.
Director Aaron Flanagan’s clear and honest approach to business and relationships as well as his extensive experience in the Australian sports landscape, has given our organisation a solid foundation in which to grow and has greatly assisted the professionalism of the ACA.
