Paige Munson

Originally from Melbourne, Paige, an Aquarius with a love for coffee and a knack for organizing everything. Grew up on the Gold Coast and later returned to Melbourne for her career. A spontaneous two-week trip to the Territory turned into three amazing years living in Darwin City!

“If someone had told me three years ago that I would be running my own business and achieving the perfect work-life balance in the NT, I wouldn’t have believed them. The NT offers a perfect blend of professional opportunities and endless adventures.”

Working as a results-driven Social Media Marketer based in Darwin, Paige specializes in spotting trends and crafting engaging content.

“I started my own social media marketing business, Marketing with Paige. Originally from Melbourne, I brought my years of marketing experience to Darwin, where the close-knit community provided me with the opportunity to collaborate with some incredible industry professionals.”

“I had witnessed firsthand the struggles my friends and family faced in managing their business's social media, and noticed the significant gap in the market for affordable small business marketing services.”

“This inspired me to focus on helping small businesses in the Territory with tailored social media strategies that truly resonate with their audience, bringing their ideas to life.”

Moving during COVID was unexpected, but it turned out to be the best and easiest decision Paige has ever made.

“If you’ve experienced a Melbourne winter, you’ll understand why!”

The Northern Territory has provided Paige the opportunity to build a thriving social media marketing business, collaborate with amazing industry professionals, and make lifelong friends.

“The Territory has so much to offer—the friendly people, the endless career opportunities, and the vibrant, culturally rich environment. There's still so much to learn and so many beautiful places to uncover.”

Thinking about moving to the Territory but you’re unsure take Paige's advice.

“Just do it! Give yourself six months or a year to experience it. People often have many expectations about where they should be in life—getting married, buying a house, hitting career goals, making money. A move like this can seem daunting, like you have to put your life on hold.”

For Paige, it was the opposite. Once she let go of those expectations and excuses and went with the flow, everything fell into place. She has met lifelong friends, built a business she never thought possible in her 20s, and now lives in a beautiful place.
