About

Hey, I’m Austin James.

I’m a content creator showcasing the best experiences in South Florida, so people who live here or are planning a trip can try them firsthand. In doing so, I also help the businesses behind those experiences get more bookings and build their brand.

My story.

  1. 01College

    Learning the craft

    I started as a videographer in college, filming everything from nightlife to FSU sports, musicians, food, and more. That’s where I learned the whole process from start to finish: planning the shoot, filming it, editing it, and delivering it.

    I also spent a summer in London in a documentary film program, learning to shoot documentary-style and the fundamentals behind great video.

  2. 02The agency years

    Learning what performs

    I got good at making videos but realized they need to drive business results to provide the most value. And the best place for video to drive business results is social media.

    So I spent about four years at two marketing agencies, focused on content strategy, social media marketing, and how it all fits together with SEO, AI search, and a business’s overall marketing strategy.

  3. 03Year one

    Putting it to the test

    At this point, I was confident I could make content that looks great and drives results on social media. I was really into golf at the time, so I started my own golf page from zero.

    In the first year, it grew to 35K followers and passed 50M views. That got the attention of some of the biggest creators and brands in golf, and they started reaching out to work with me.

  4. 04Going all in

    Building an agency

    Once the work on the side outgrew my job, I quit and started my own social media agency for golf brands and creators, handling their monthly content from strategy to final edit.

    It worked, and I was making more money than I ever had. But my days turned into hiring, training, managing, and selling, over and over. Eventually, taking on new clients felt like a burden, even when they were ready to pay a premium, so I knew it was time for a change.

  5. 05Now

    The Austin James Experience

    That brings us to today. I’m rebranding my personal pages as The Austin James Experience, showcasing the best experiences in South Florida to encourage people to get out and live life more fully.

    At the same time, I help the businesses behind those experiences get more bookings and build their brand. Part media company, part marketing agency. Focused less on making money, and more on experiencing life.

My mission

Encourage people to experience more of life, while helping the businesses that make it possible grow.

How I work now.

A small team

Me, my videographer, and my editor, plus creators from my network when it’s a fit. You always work with me directly, and I’m hands-on with every project.

Projects I’m excited about

I only take on experiences I’m genuinely excited to do, so every shoot gets my full energy.

Building a brand, not a team

Instead of growing a big agency, I’m building a media brand. Every experience I feature grows the audience your business gets in front of.

Now booking

Get your experience featured.

I come out with my videographer, do your experience, and handle all the content from there. White-glove and completely hands-off.
