Our story
Three years ago we set out to build a better kind of marketing business. We are proud of how far we have come, and of the clients who have come with us.

Proud of how far we have come.
Three years ago we started Ranknv to do things differently, and we are proud of how far it has come.
We have built it one client at a time. QBD Books, Claytons Australia, WeTrain, Priority Insurance Brokers and Strata Insurance Solutions are some of the businesses we have worked alongside, and we are proud of every one of them.
It started with Josh and a name that meant nothing to us. Today it is a small team of three, and we are still building.

Our start
We saw how the agency model worked from the inside.
Josh’s background is in sport, with the Newcastle Knights and Hong Kong Football Club, and then Channel 9 News.
He then worked across large and small marketing agencies. The size of the agency changed, but the problems were often the same. Clients were sold one service, passed between account managers and shown reports that rarely explained what needed to happen next.
SEO, Google Ads and websites were managed separately, even when each one affected the others. So Josh started his own business to do it differently. It began as Hhelp, but that name never meant anything to us, so it became Ranknv.
Three years on, we are still doing it that way, and we are prouder of it every year.
You do not need another agency. You need one team looking at the whole picture.
The team
A close team with clear responsibility.
You deal directly with the people doing the work. There’s no account-manager layer and nothing gets lost passing messages along.
Joshua Birch
Director. Strategy, SEO and Google Ads
Josh sets the direction and stays across the work, from SEO and Google Ads to AI search. You deal with him directly.
There’s no fluff, no smoke and mirrors — just straight-talking, reliable service that actually delivers results.
Shieka Calaguas
Web development and hosting
Shieka leads the design and build. You see the work as it progresses and have your say. Website builds, design, hosting and security.
I’ve had more engagements and enquiries in the last 3 months than I did with my old website.
Kate Birch
Brand and admin
Kate looks after onboarding and admin, so the paperwork never slows the work down. Admin, onboarding and client care.
Professional, creative and full of fresh marketing ideas, they truly understand how to elevate a business.
