How did HIT Media begin?
HIT Media started in January 2013 after I achieved High Distinctions in Web Design at Southern Cross University. HIT Media started as a Web Design & Development business working with local IT providers as a contractor building bespoke websites for business on the Mid North Coast of NSW. Finding satisfaction in providing clients with a unique site design HIT Media continued to grow. Taking on work as an independent business rather than as a contractor HIT Media invested in its own dedicated Web Server and DNS cluster hosted in AWS/Azure.
As HIT Media grew and developed relationships with our clients the need to expand on our offered services increased. We became a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider allowing us to resell Microsoft 365 Licensing to our Customers. As part of this offering we expanded to provide additional services to bolt onto Microsoft 365 to improve our clients security. We adopted external security tools to provided advanced email filtering and cloud backup solutions to ensure greater data retention.
As we continued to grow our focus shifted from providing ad-hoc or one off projects to being a one-stop-shop for all our clients ICT needs. This saw a change from a Media based business to a Managed Services Provider. Adding additional services to our product stack including Internet, Telephony, Managed IT Support, Managed Security and Backup Services and Business IT Hardware sales.
