Mr
Greg Tingle entered the media business in 2001,
when he made the transition across from Sales
and Marketing for Australia's top telecommunications
companies.
Already
a keen writer, with exceptional presentation and
investigative skills, the media business was a
natural progression.
Greg
started freelance journalism, professional writing
and TV presenting for Sydney's Channel 31, in
January 2001.
Before
long, Sydney's radio stations were also keen to
hear what Greg had to say on subjects as diverse
as freedom of the press, community groups, the
underworld, reality television and the Australian
telecommunications business, amongst other things.
In
mid 2002 Greg established himself as a player
in Australian media, with a front-page news story
to his name, Jump on Board - "Southern Courier".
In addition, Greg's on-air discussion with "Golden
Tonsils", John Laws, regarding Telstra, Optus
and Reality TV was mentioned in the Media section
of "The Australian", on 3rd October
2002.
March
2003 saw Greg Tingle launch his latest venture,
Media Man Australia, which commenced as an online
broadcasting and publishing portal for Australian
and International media, in addition to showcasing
the accomplishments of both himself and his contemporaries.
As the website developed, along with Greg's business,
to call his online home a portal is an understatement.
Mid
2003 saw Media Man Australia receiving international
acclaim with positive mentions in the media section
of The Boston Phoenix and New Media Musings. At
the same time Greg achieved his News Media and
Journalism Certificate III at Petersham TAFE.
August
2003 saw Greg develop his public relations arm,
and the clients came rushing.
In
September of the same year, Media Man Australia
gained solid government support, via a government
grant.
Soon
after Greg was chosen to judge a new Reality TV
program, H'it'! and also hosted "Talking
Television" on Melbourne Talk 3AK. A few
days later he was nominated MC for the Maroubra
Fun Run, of which he also did the press releases
and radio spots for.
2004
saw Greg develop the business to a stage where
every week the major Australian newspapers and
radio stations called in to literally ask, "What's
news?", and in many cases they secured interviews
with Greg's impressive client list.
By
mid 2004, the public relations and publicity arms
of the business reached another level, with affiliations
inked with International Movie Makers Market,
Filmfestivals Entertainment Group, and representation
of one of Australia's hottest new authors. In
addition, the new phase of the government grant
was approved, and a relocation to new offices
was competed. At the same time, Media Man Australia
once again received significant international
press, with an interview on Hong Kong's RTHK,
drawing attention to Media Man Australia's clients
and the reality TV connection.
Towards
the conclusion of 2004, Media Man Australia relocated
to Airlie Beach, Whitsundays, Queensland, where
they worked closely with everyone from the some
of the regions most successful property developers,
actors, authors, tourism operations and entrepreneurs.
Some
of the campaigns Media Man Australia has worked
on include Messages On Hold, Virgin Casino, Mick
Cutajar, Richard Bradley Productions, Githabul
people, Save The Whales Again!, Climate Action
and Live Earth (Pittwater), Changing Colours Movement,
Greenfest, in addition to strong media support
of ABC, Network Nine and Foxtel campaigns.
Although
based in Bondi, Sydney, Media Man Australia has
clients and associates around Australia, and in
fact around the globe.
The
company motto is, "Putting your name out
there!", and he continues to do it for himself
and his prestigious client list.
Only
time will tell, what is next for Greg Tingle and
his team, but rest assured that Media Man Australia
will remain in the media spotlight, and its full
impact has yet to be experienced.
