About me & why I do what I do?

With over 15 years of Australian and international experience, I’ve helped brands build stronger connections with their communities while driving growth and meaningful change through the power of creativity, data and strategy.

My name is Matthew Gherardi and I’m the founder of Surge Marketing.

As an award winning Marketing consultant and fractional marketing leader, I’ve developed marketing strategies, programs, cross channel campaigns that help businesses strengthen their brands and achieve their goals.

I’m passionate about delivering results for small to medium sized B2C and DTC businesses in Australia. From tourism, health and retail through to agriculture-based businesses, I take a personalised and collaborative approach, working alongside clients to strengthen their market positioning, communicate their value and develop marketing strategies that support their broader business goals.

With a double major in Marketing & Advertising from Curtin University and a certificate in Marketing Communications from International Advertising Association, I’ve devised a proven framework to take your business to the next level.

Away from clients, I enjoy cycling with a local cafe group and being involved in supporting various local community and industry groups.
