What Our Clients Say

I’ve worked with the team at 121 Group for the last couple of years and they’ve consistently proven to be exceptional support for our business. With their deep understanding of the healthcare industry paired with expert knowledge in digital marketing, they’ve been able to achieve benchmark cost per acquisition within the very difficult healthcare space. More than anything, the team works on our campaigns with true passion & attentiveness — a level of care which is very difficult to find in the agency space.

Cameron McTavish
Former Head of eCommerce & Brand — Healius Pathology

We’ve been working with the team at 121 Group for the past 4 years on our digital strategy – including campaigns on Google Ads, Google My Business, SEO and paid social media. The team have produced industry benchmark results across our campaigns, providing a positive ROI. More than just results, they have an exceptional team who are very responsive, agile and in tune to your business needs. Couldn’t ask for a better team to work with. A special shout out to Steven, Kurtly, Chris and Michael for all the amazing work and consistency in results.

Understanding GeoSurv Australia
21 years of operational excellence — now it’s time to match that digitally
GeoSurv Australia is a 21-year-old geospatial and utilities company with approximately 100 staff across 6 specialised divisions: surveying, scanning, vacuum excavation, utility locating, civil works, and consultancy. Despite being one of the most established operators in the sector, GeoSurv is digitally invisible — relying almost entirely on word-of-mouth and existing relationships.
6 Divisions
Surveying, scanning, vacuum excavation, utility locating, civil works, and consultancy
~100 Staff
Skilled professionals across surveying, civil, utilities, and geospatial disciplines
21+ Years
One of Australia’s most established geospatial and utilities service providers

Market Analysis

The Australian geospatial and utilities market presents significant growth opportunity.

$4.2B
Australian surveying & geospatial market value — growing 6.3% annually
72%
Of infrastructure procurement managers research suppliers online before first contact
85%
Of skilled trade candidates use social media during their job search
Infrastructure Boom
Federal and state governments are investing record amounts in infrastructure. Projects like Inland Rail, Western Sydney Airport, and Cross River Rail demand surveying, utility locating, and vacuum excavation services at unprecedented scale.
Talent Shortage
Licensed surveyors and experienced utility locators are in critically short supply. Companies that build strong brand presences will win the talent war — those that don’t will lose projects due to understaffing.
Digital Gap in Sector
Most geospatial companies rely on word-of-mouth and tenders. Very few have invested in digital marketing, creating a massive first-mover advantage for GeoSurv to dominate organic and paid search channels.

Technology Intelligence

Deep-dive analysis of GeoSurv's current digital technology stack, revealing hidden insights about past decisions and untapped opportunities.

Critical: WordPress to Wix Migration (May 2021)

Source: BuiltWith Technology Profile

GeoSurv migrated from WordPress to Wix in May 2021 — a significant platform downgrade for SEO and content marketing. This single decision explains why the blog has been completely abandoned since that date. WordPress offers unlimited SEO flexibility; Wix introduces structural limitations that are now visible across the site (27 H1 tags, 650KB+ page weight, limited schema support).

Our recommendation: A strategic website rebuild on a performance-first platform would unlock the SEO potential currently being suppressed by Wix's architectural constraints.

5yr

LinkedIn Ads — Active Since 2021

GeoSurv has been running LinkedIn advertising for 5 years. This shows an understanding of the channel's value, but without strategic management, that investment likely hasn't compounded. We'll make every dollar work harder with proper targeting, content strategy, and lead gen forms.

Cold Outreach Tools Detected

We detected lemlist (a cold email outreach platform) active on a GeoSurv subdomain since October 2021. This indicates past attempts at outbound sales prospecting. Our strategy shifts this to inbound lead generation — so qualified prospects come to you, rather than chasing cold contacts.

Meta Tracking — Already Installed

Facebook Domain Insights and tracking are already active on geosurv.com.au since May 2021. This means we can launch Meta content campaigns immediately without any additional tracking setup — a significant time saver for Stream 2 social content & brand presence campaigns.

US Server Location

Despite being an Australian company serving Australian clients, GeoSurv's website is hosted on US-based servers (detected October 2024). This adds latency for local visitors and negatively impacts local SEO signals. Google prioritises locally-hosted sites for geographically-relevant searches.

Email Security Gap (DMARC)

DMARC email authentication is set to "None" — meaning anyone could spoof @geosurv.com.au emails without detection. For a company working with government and infrastructure clients, this is a compliance and reputation risk that should be addressed as part of any digital strategy.

eCommerce Active (Wix Stores)

Wix Stores has been active since October 2022, accepting PayPal and Discover payments. This suggests GeoSurv sells products or services online — an additional revenue stream that could benefit from targeted digital marketing and conversion optimisation.

Technology profile sourced from BuiltWith.com — 23 March 2026. Covers 5 subdomains and full technology history since 2013.

Two Streams. One Unified Brand.

A dual-stream LinkedIn-led strategy that builds your service pipeline while simultaneously positioning GeoSurv as the employer of choice.
