Our Founders Manage
Every Single Project

StartsWithA (SWA) is led by integrated marketing expert, Amy Faulkner, and award winning creative strategist, Alex Marshall.


Originating from London and now based in Sydney, SWA was formed in 2016 after leaving traditional agency life, driven by desire to work directly with selected clients, business owners and partners on a consultative basis.

Amy & Alex manage every project personally which means clients get 100% accountability at all times.

How We Operate

Our Thoughts on Branding

"StartsWithA have elevated our brand to levels we didn't previously think possible. They effortlessly captured and aligned company wide messaging that we have struggled to articulate for 20 years. The whole team is very happy with the outcome."

David Bergmark - CEO

"StartsWithA has been instrumental in helping us identify and clearly articulate who we are, bring new meaning to our company name and developed a visual identity that feels like a modern progression of our current design style."

Catherine Wright - Owner

"I was blown away by the service, the consultative approach and the end result - a no nonsense approach. Thank you."

Jenny Rosser - Co-Founder & Managing Director

"Thank you for such a great result, I really appreciate how stress free you made the whole process. The feedback has been exceptional."

Liz Brookes - Senior Brand Manager
