Are Media signs new Western Australia representation deal

Are Media has signed a new representation partnership in Western Australia to build its presence in the market and increase opportunities for WA-based clients, effective October 7.

Collaborating with Ariarna Bartulovic, the founder and director of Media by Ariarna, Are Media hopes to showcase its content commerce opportunities to advertisers in the region, capitalising on her 15 years of experience in the industry.

Bartulovic will report to Are Media’s head of direct sales for Vic, SA and WA, Will Jamison.

Having launched Media by Ariarna earlier this year, Bartulovic works to create meaningful client relationships with results-driven solutions. She has extensive industry knowledge from previous roles including at SCA, rent.com.au, News Corp, and ACP Magazines, among others.

Jamison said the Are Media team is thrilled to welcome Bartulovic.

“Her exceptional background and industry insights will be invaluable as she builds new relationships and drives opportunities for Western Australian advertisers,” he said.

“As we continue to enhance our content commerce capabilities and future-proof our omnichannel brands, Ariarna’s customer-centric approach and proven skills in advertising make her an ideal addition to our team.”

Bartulovic added: “Returning to represent some of the most iconic media brands in my home market of Western Australia feels like coming full circle. Are Media’s remarkable content and strong connection with Australian women make this an exciting opportunity.

“I’m eager to amplify our brands in WA and contribute to our continued success.”

The representation deal is effective October 7.
