Probably the Best Email Marketing Company in Australia … “We started UM Direct as we felt there was a fast easy and cost effective way to accelerate business without the hassle of becoming marketing experts. In all of our businesses we have used “leverage” in some form or another. Using effective permission based email marketing is one of the most powerful forms of leverage online today.” Nicci Barnes and Lee Bush, CIC

About Us

UM Direct Pty Ltd is an Australian owned email marketing company, formed when founders Nicci Barnes and Lee Bush discovered a real need for non-incentivised permission based email marketing lists within Australia. With their combined experiences in list brokerage, online marketing and business coaching it was apparent that the demand for permission based non-incentivised email marketing lists far outweighed the supply. Strategic alliances were formed and UM Direct was born to service this need in 2009.

With contacts and strategic partnerships strongly formed UM Direct now has the ability to not only reach the highest quality permission based email lists within Asia Pacific but also the ability to take your campaign global!
