Testimonial - Venture Partners

We engaged Immersion Marketing to deliver a versatile brand, website design and marketing collateral, all in a tight frame. We're delighted with the results. Immersion delivered a first class job, on time and within budget. It's been a pleasure working with Sarah and the team and I'd be happy to recommend them.

Welcome to our new office...

Welcome to our new office...

Due to the Immersion team's recent growth, it was recognised that an upgrade from the shoebox office space on George Street was needed.

We have been in our new office on Bond Street for a few months now, but have yet to show it off officially! So for those of you that have not been introduced to our new space yet - this is for you. 

Immersion is now located in the beautiful Dunedin Heritage building, Salisbury House, at 104 Bond Street. For many years this was the location of Forno's Auctioneers, but is now shaping up to be quite the creative hub! Owners of the building, Hayden Cawt and Sheryl McPherson, have opened an innovative fashion and design store, Salisbury Boutique, beside us, while other tenants include Dunedin jeweller Henry Deveraux, Otago Polytech grads Rachel Webb and Elise Barnes and their fashion label, Undone and business group, Venture Partners.

In the future we hope to combine creative forces and really take advantage of this beautiful Dunedin location, so watch this space... 


Check out some more imagery of our fantastic new space here. It's very "industrial/minimalist chic" at the moment, but we've got some pretty exciting plans for making it befitting of a funky marketing agency space!

Testimonial - Demografik

Moving from supplier to client of Immersion was an easy choice for Demografik….we knew from experience that the way the team work, and the results we have seen the achieve would be a perfect fit for our business. 

Sarah’s depth of knowledge and ability to get the right information from us to turn into a targeted marketing strategy has been very impressive, in particular the way she invested time up front really getting to know us and our business. 

We now have a solid plan going forward and some great tools to drive growth for Demografik. Thanks very much!!

MEDIA RELEASE: New Zealand Elite Triathlete Tony Dodds (aka Doddsy) remarkably unscathed after crash in Germany

New Zealand Elite Triathlete and Wanaka local Tony Dodds has been involved in a car crash in Germany whilst training for this weekend’s ITU World Series race in Hamburg. 

Tony was out training on his own on the narrow European roads when a car unexpectedly braked in-front of him. Tony has flown through the back windscreen.

Tony has emerged miraculously well considering the potential of the situation. He has 12 stiches to his arm, nicked an artery, but thankfully no broken bones.

“I was concerned about overtraining in the lead up to the London Olympic trials. So I’m seeing the silver lining in the situation! Potentially this is actually an opportunity to rest and be well prepared for August” said Tony with his characteristic optimism!

More updates on Tony’s progress will be posted to www.tonydodds.com, or via his Twitter account @doddsy_nz.

MEDIA RELEASE: 2011 Dunedin Midwinter Carnival Update

Public Lantern Making Workshops Booked Out for the first time ever!


If the uptake of this year’s public lantern making workshops is anything to go by, the 2011 Midwinter Carnival Procession promises to be one of the best ever!

“The response to the workshops is unprecedented. We have had to work hard to fit people in by asking them to make fewer lanterns per family and many people have had to miss out, but we just can’t fit anyone else in!” said Festival Event Manager Paul Smith.

Over 150 brightly coloured bumble bee and lady-bird lanterns have been made by local children and their parents over the last two weekends. Insect ‘cocoons’ are being made at the St Paul’s Cathedral Crypt this weekend.

Everyone who makes a lantern will proudly carry them around the Octagon as part of the 2011 Midwinter Carnival Procession – showing off their achievements to thousands of other Dunedinites.

The Dunedin Midwinter Carnival will take place at 5.30pm on Saturday 25th June in the Octagon. The theme is ‘Night Creatures’, New Zealand’s unique insect fairytale, featuring giant moths, spiders and slaters, spectacular stilt walking creatures, street performers and hundreds of community made lanterns.

“Last year we had a record turnout so people will need to get there early to get a good spot,” said Mr Smith. “We have also put on extra stalls as there was such high demand for them.”

People are encouraged to come early to soak up the carnival atmosphere provided by braziers, live music and food stalls. World music act Mama Yeva, from Dunedin, will be performing prior and following the Carnival Procession.

A community run event the Dunedin Midwinter Carnival brings families together to celebrate winter and the creative culture that is so unique to Dunedin. The lanterns aptly represent returning light, creativity, and community. The Dunedin Midwinter Carnival is organised by the Dunedin Midwinter Celebrations Trust. Spectators are requested to support the sustainability of this event by making a donation as they arrive or leave the event.
