Summary
A tiny Christchurch-based billboard company, VAST, just crushed it at the national Beacon Awards—winning Sales Team of the Year with just six people on their team, beating giants like TVNZ and NZME. Their secret? A laser-focused strategy on regional and suburban audiences across New Zealand, proving that local businesses can outshine media titans by connecting with communities where people actually live. This win isn’t just a trophy—it’s a bold statement that innovation and heart can make a national splash, one billboard at a time.
