- PURPOSE as a clear focal point that informs the business and about our business.

Our History
2001: The WHY: Margaret Manson establishes Global Trendz Marketing [GTM] as a boutique marketing consultancy in Melbourne to provide SMEs with affordable and responsive world-class strategic marketing advice and support.
2007: Inspired Growth – We add an extra dimension to our clients’ competitiveness: INNOVATION. Launch of a world-class business innovation conference, InnoFuture – Future Powered by Innovation, designed to bring leading global business innovation trends and models to Australia. GTM is eclipsed by InnoFuture. We have started a ‘movement’.
2008: InnoFuture Momentum: nearly one hundred people, who attended the conference, came together for a ‘Reunion’ two months after the event – just in Melbourne – which turned into a long running series of live events hosted by Telstra in their Innovation Centres in Melbourne and Sydney from 2008 – 2009, then, by Suncorp and GHD in Brisbane. But too many people couldn’t take full advantage of our live events – being spread across our vast country.
2010: InnoFuture RIOT [Rapid Insight Online Talks]: The Problem with non-digital live events and classroom training is that the participants cannot easily act on what they have just heard. With an aim to “make valuable know-how less perishable and more efficient to apply!”, and two years of research and experiments with online group meeting and learning TECHNOLOGIES – in 2010, we launched an online event program – via a unique blend of video conferencing and webinar platform.
InnoFuture RIOT was an experiment in creating online experience. People can’t stay focused for long periods in front of a computer screen – unless it’s entertainment. And even here, TV commercials have conditioned us to have breaks. So, we conceived RIOT format as a 29-minute sprint through concepts and ideas – with exciting international guests, video presence, etc. But the best was yet to come…
2012: The innovative businesses went digital. And InnoFuture was there to guide them, while fast embracing the latest digital marketing trends. We have been riding the digital marketing wave for nearly ten years.
2016: InnoFuture became HubSpot Inbound Certified. In the digital age, Inbound Marketing has replaced the bulk of personal selling and became the new way of building customer relationships, creating the sales pipeline and warming up prospects. Today is everything and content marketing is the most significant business strategy for B2B companies. And it is also our sweet spot.
