The Boomtown Insiders program is a unique, hands-on opportunity for emerging industry talent to gain a deeper understanding of the dynamic and diverse audiences across regional Australia.

ELIZABETH BAKER
CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICER - ZENITH MEDIA
Regional Australia is still a relatively untapped market with many ‘national’ advertisers not quite hitting the mark and missing out on over 10 million Australians with their communication.
Understanding regional markets will put you ahead of your peers as you will know the value of regional Australia and ensure that your clients are getting the most value from their advertising dollar.
Being a Boomtown Insider will give you the edge. Be part of a growing community that can truly make a difference.
Become a Boomtown Insider and grow your career and improve your clients ROI.
SIMON GRACE
HEAD OF AUSTRALIAN GOV. PARTNERSHIPS - UM
After decades of planning, buying and executing thousands of campaigns across the country, we’ve seen firsthand that locals genuinely value local news and content.
You only need to walk into a newsagent or a petrol & convenience store mid-morning to see the Canberra Times already gone from the shelves, while the state and national titles are often still there at the end of the day.
Whether it’s the scale of the ACT or the intimacy of a town like Jindabyne, local audiences are engaged, loyal and proud. Regional media remains one of the most powerful and authentic environments for brands to communicate.
Regional Australia isn’t just part of the media landscape – it’s the heart of it
CLINTON KAY
GM - SWEENEY ADVERTISING
We’re looking for young guns of the industry – those who are keen to distinguish themselves through meaningful involvement, and want to be empowered to become champions of regional Australia.
This is an opportunity for us, as a collective, to identify and invest in the next generation of agency leaders, while also fast-tracking and strengthening the connection between Boomtown and agencies. Boomtown Insiders will be the voice of the 9.9 million Australians living in the regions.
