About us
Transforming the Way Agencies Operate Through Talent and Automation
We provide skilled, local freelancers to agencies and build custom AI automations that simplify reporting, trafficking, planning, analysis, and more.
Our mission is to deliver scalable, secure, and high-impact solutions that help teams reduce manual work, optimise their resources, and achieve superior outcomes.
One Smart Solution at a Time
This is Rocket was born from a simple belief: teams should be able to focus on great work — not get buried in manual tasks, resourcing gaps, or outdated processes.
After more than 12 years working across the Australian advertising industry, we saw the same challenges again and again:
- Teams overwhelmed with reporting, trafficking, admin and deadlines
- Difficulty finding the right freelance specialist at the right time
- Constant pressure to deliver more with fewer resources
- Brilliant people spending their days copying, pasting, formatting, and firefighting instead of creating
It shouldn’t be that hard.
And that’s exactly why This is Rocket exists.
Why We Started
We launched This is Rocket to solve the two biggest operational pains marketing teams face today:
- Not enough hands
- Too many manual tasks
By combining specialised freelance talent with AI-powered automation, we set out to create a smarter, faster, more efficient way for teams to work — without increasing headcount, without expensive platforms, and without long onboarding or training cycles.
Our Journey So Far
Every part of This is Rocket has been shaped by real industry experience and real client needs.
Here are some key milestones:
- 12+ years spent working in advertising, understanding the pressure, pace and challenges faced by agencies and brands
- Hundreds of campaigns supported across digital, media, social, creative and strategy
- Countless workflows automated, saving teams thousands of manual hours
- Development of a full suite of AI-powered tools built specifically for the Australian market
- Placement of specialist freelancers across media, digital, performance, design, content, creative, and production
- Rapid growth driven almost entirely by word-of-mouth — because once clients see the time saved, they don’t go back
Every tool we build, every automation we create, every freelancer we place comes from a deep understanding of how teams actually work — and how we can make their lives easier.
