Background

Adam Steinhardt has competed as a internationally-ranked pole vaulter and co-founded a multi-million dollar Apple Reseller, Next Byte, before he found the perfect combination of his passions in digital sales and inbound marketing.

Adam first honed his competitive drive as an internationally-ranked pole vaulter, representing Australia at the Commonwealth Games in the 90s. In 1996, as he was training to make the '96 Olympics, Adam started Next Byte, which quickly became Australia's biggest Apple Reseller.

As Next Byte's Managing Director and Director of Sales and Marketing, Adam trained and educated the team as if they were Olympic athletes. Igniting growth with up to four training sessions a week, he quickly led Next Byte to a $70 million turnover business. By 2001, Next Byte was 13th in the BRW Fast 100. 

Working closely with the Apple Executive team through the tumultuous 90's and the Steve Jobs-led comeback, he experienced first-hand the explosion of the iMac, iPod and the Apple "Think Different" campaign. After ten years, Adam moved on from Next Byte. At the time of departure, the company had 16 retail locations Australia-wide and 140 staff. Next Byte was Apple's most lauded reseller.

Adam then founded The Kingdom, an Adelaide advertising agency in 2009. In 2015, The Kingdom pivoted to becoming an inbound marketing agency and a HubSpot Certified Partner.

In just 12 months as an inbound agency, The Kingdom became one of the fastest-growing of the 3000 HubSpot global partners. The Kingdom was the quickest partner ever to reach the Platinum HubSpot Certification in all of Asia-Pacific.

The Kingdom won the HubSpot International Partner of the Year and International Rookie of the Year in just eight months of trade.

The Kingdom now has HubSpot clients in London, Los Angeles and all states of Australia and is in pursuit of becoming the fastest HubSpot Diamond Partner ever.

Since retiring from sports, Adam has coached an Australian Women's Beach Volleyball Team on the World Tour and a highly successful, multiple premiership-winning soccer team.
