KAYLA ITSINES

How To Build A Brand People Want To Belong To.

THIS OCTOBER, YOU’LL HEAR FROM ONE OF AUSTRALIA’S MOST RECOGNISED GLOBAL FOUNDERS.

Kayla Itsines did not build a business by being another option in a crowded market. She built a brand that millions of people recognise, trust and actively choose to be part of.

At the Australian Marketing Summit, Kayla will share the principles behind creating attention that lasts, building customer loyalty and turning a clear brand message into real commercial outcomes.

Whether you run a service business, e-commerce brand, B2B, personal brand or growing company, the question is the same:

How do you become the business people remember and the one they choose when there are a hundred alternatives?

You will learn how to:

1.  BUILD RECOGNITION

How to become memorable in a crowded market to attract new customers.

2.  CREATE COMMUNITY & SCALE

    Turn attention, followers and customers into genuine advocates.

3.  STAY RELEVANT

 Grow your business without losing the trust that built it.

A GREAT PRODUCT OR SERVICE IS NOT ENOUGH IF NOBODY REMEMBERS YOU.

Great businesses are built by great marketers and coming into 2027 it has never been more important for the founder to own their marketing.

The businesses growing fastest are not relying on luck, referrals or random content.

They know how to communicate their value, create demand, earn trust and turn attention into customers.

Because no agency, junior marketer or AI tool can fully replace the person who understands the customer, the offer and the vision behind the business, which is YOU, the founder. 

And none of them will care more than you about your success!

The Australian Marketing Summit gives founders the strategy to take back control of the growth engine: from brand and content to paid traffic, sales, retention and scale.

STOP RELYING ON

- Random posts
- Word of mouth alone
- Marketing you do not understand or control

START BUILDING

- A recognisable brand
- Demand on purpose
- Funnels that convert attention into revenue

THE 3 GROWTH ENGINES 
EVERY BUSINESS NEEDS TO WIN IN 2027

DEMAND GENERATION

Create a predictable flow of qualified leads

Content, paid traffic, positioning and offers that attract the right customers not just likes or random enquiries.

Outcome: More qualified opportunities without relying on referrals alone.

CONVERSION SYSTEMS

Turn attention into booked calls, sales and revenue

Funnels, landing pages, follow-up, sales messaging and automation that stop good leads from leaking away.

Outcome: Better conversion from the traffic and leads you already have.

BRAND AUTHORITY & SCALE

Become the obvious choice in your market

Build the brand, proof and visibility that lets you command attention, charge more and grow with confidence.

Outcome: A business that competes on value and reputation, not price.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

The marketing systems, frameworks, and strategies high-growth businesses use to scale, attract premium clients, and operate with leverage regardless of industry.

CREATE DEMAND

  • Most businesses do not have a sales problem first. They have a demand problem. Learn how to fix it.
  • Stop relying on referrals, random content and hope for your next customer.
  • Learn how to create offers people actually want to enquire about now.
  • Why posting every day is not a strategy — and what earns attention instead.
  • ​Use buyer psychology to make marketing more persuasive.
  • ​How to attract better-fit leads  not just more enquiries that waste your team’s time.
  • ​How to use paid traffic without blindly spending money and praying it works.

TURN ATTENTION INTO REVENUE

  • Build funnels and landing pages that turn clicks into enquiries, calls and purchases.
  • ​Why the first business to respond often wins  and how to build a faster lead-response system.
  • ​Improve follow-up so warm leads do not go cold.
  • Use sales messaging that gets prospects to act without sounding pushy.
  • ​Identify where leads are leaking from the customer journey.
  • ​Use AI and automation the right way as opposed to the mainstream cookie cutter way.

BUILD AUTHORITY & ATTENTION

  • Hear directly from Kayla Itsines on building a globally recognised business.
  • ​The business that wins is not always the loudest or cheapest. It is the one people remember and trust.
  • ​Turn your expertise, proof and story into a reason customers choose you.
  • Build a personal or company brand that makes price less of the conversation.
  • ​Create content that builds trust before a prospect ever speaks to you.
  • ​Position yourself to command higher prices and compete on value.

SCALE & CONVERT

  • Build retention, repeat-purchase and customer lifetime-value systems.
  • ​How to know what is actually working in your marketing so you can scale winners instead of guessing.
  • ​Increase booked calls, conversion rates and return on marketing spend.
  • Reach new audiences without diluting your message or attracting the wrong customers.
  • Create a growth engine that does not rely on you personally doing everything.

You will leave with a clearer strategy to generate demand, build authority and turn more attention into revenue.

SERVICE & ecommerce BUSINESS OWNERS FACE A DECISION as we go into 2027.


If you run a service-based or ecommerce business, 2027 won’t reward effort. 
It will reward visibility, systems, positioning, and speed.

The businesses that win will not be the cheapest or the loudest.
They will control demand in their market.

Most businesses will continue doing excellent work while gradually losing relevance. 
Not because they’re bad. Because their marketing hasn’t evolved.

AI, automation and digital acquisition aren’t trends. They are now infrastructure.

The cost of ignoring them isn’t immediate pain. 
It’s slow erosion: Weaker demand, tighter margins, higher stress, declining loyalty.

The businesses that act early will quietly outpace the rest. 

This summit exists for owners who don’t want to play catch-up. They want to win.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the Australian Marketing Summit 2026 about?

It is an executive immersion designed to replace guesswork with systems.

Most business owners rely on "hope marketing" (referrals) or "blind faith" (outsourcing to agencies or staff members without understanding the strategy). This summit is about taking back control. 

This is NOT about 'posting' or 'organic content' - we focus on what brings in customers - advertising.

You will walk away with marketing strategies, a complete roadmap for using AI, Social Media, and Paid Traffic to build a predictable client acquisition system you own and control. 

Kayla Itsines & Ethan Donati will both be speaking in person.

Who should attend the summit?

This summit is engineered for Decision Makers: Founders, CEOs, and Owners of service-based businesses and e-commerce brands.

Whether you are a Chiropractor or a Consultant, a Builder or a Brand Owner, the principles are the same. If you are generating revenue but feel trapped by the "Referral Rollercoaster" or stuck on the "Content Hamster Wheel," this room is for you.

Note: This event is for those ready to scale. It is not for "opportunity seekers" looking for a magic button.

What is the time and date?

We are running this event in 3 cities. Every event runs from 9am to 5pm
We advise getting there from 8:15am for registration.
MELBOURNE October 5th
BRISBANE October 7th
SYDNEY October 12th

Is the summit suitable for businesses who have not yet done any marketing?

Yes. In fact, it is often better to start with a clean slate than to unlearn bad habits.

You do not need a marketing degree or tech skills to attend. We teach the strategic principles of social media and the infrastructure of acquisition.

As long as you have a validated offer and the capacity to handle more clients, we will show you how to turn the tap on.

Why are tickets so affordable?

We believe in giving world class education around marketing to as many people as possible.
We run a marketing agency and an education company. Rather than spending our marketing budget on cold ads, we prefer to invest it in hosting world-class events for the right people. We treat this event as a "scholarship" for qualified business owners. 

If you are a Founder or Decision Maker, we make your seat extremely affordable and subsidised because we know a percentage of the room will become clients either in our paid marketing workshops or as done for you clients. It is an expensive operation for us to run however we believe in making accessible world class education.

Will there be other offers at the event?

The purpose of this summit is demonstration, not desperation. We believe the best way to prove we can help you grow is to actually help you grow. You will spend the day learning high-level strategy and tactical implementation. Yes, we will make an offer for those who want to work with us to implement these systems, but there is zero obligation. You will walk away with a complete roadmap regardless of whether you buy anything else or not.

Can I bring my business partner?

Yes. we encourage that. Implementing these systems often requires buy-in from your key stakeholders. However, because seating is strictly limited, every person must have their own registered ticket. Please ensure your partner or manager fills out their own application.

I’m a start-up / solopreneur. Can I still attend?

Yes, provided you are the Decision Maker and you are serious about scaling. The content is designed for businesses that are ready to install systems (AI, Ads, Funnels). 

Will the event be recorded / streamed?

No. This is an immersion event. The value comes from being in the room, networking with other high-level founders, and focusing without distraction. To protect the exclusivity of the content and the privacy of the room, there will be no replays or live streams.
