Every success story starts with an aspiration. At Tremendi, our role is to nurture both the confidence and the capability - to aim higher, communicate clearer, and deliver greater impact. Our name - Tremendi, Italian for “Tremendous” - captures our Mission: To Empower Clients to Be Tremendous. Grow Your Business. 

Now, as a proud member of the Smart Cities Council, we’re excited to bring our strategic brand marketing and storytelling expertise to a community driving safer, smarter, and more sustainable outcomes for people, places, and the planet.

Founded by Len Costantini - Tremendi blends public sector insight with private sector drive. We help organisations build clarity, trust, and momentum through strategic thinking, compelling storytelling, and practical execution.


What We Do

Tremendi is a business growth consultancy that helps organisations - across both public and private sectors - clarify their purpose, communicate their value, and deliver results that matter. Our golden thread is storytelling: the clear, actionable narrative that connects strategy, identity, and action - whether through a brand, a business case, or a bold project vision.

We specialise in:

  • Strategy & Business Planning – for both commercial ventures and government initiatives
  • Marketing & Digital Execution – SEO, websites, content, campaigns, analytics
  • Organisational Culture & Mentoring – including leadership, team culture, and brand alignment
  • Stakeholder Workshops & Engagement – co-designed to unlock insights and foster buy-in
  • Communication & Community Engagement Strategy – tailored for councils, utilities, corporate and asset owners


We work across sectors - with a strong focus on those shaping the future of place: Local government, utilities, infrastructure owners and builders, and the SME partners who support them.


Real-World Perspective

Len’s experience also spans decades of leadership in public policy, project strategy, major events, and regional economic development. His work with Brisbane City Council, the Queensland Government, and Brisbane Marketing shaped whole-of-government initiatives, city brand, stakeholder trust, and growth-at-scale initiatives. That foundation is now applied through Tremendi to support clients facing similar complexity and opportunity.

A case in point is Tremendi’s work with regional communities such as South Burnett Regional Council - in planning and engagement for water quality, asset strategy, and infrastructure resilience. Projects like these demonstrate how stakeholder engagement can move beyond ‘box-ticking’ to become a continuous process of listening, learning, and continual improvement.

Tremendi’s work in this space is in collaboration with Innovate Wisely’s agile, AI-enabled engagement tools - to foster transparency, uncover insights, address trust and energy blockages and align delivery with stakeholder priorities. As Innovate Wisely founder Lee Foster puts it:

“Len is a brilliant marketer… he has quickly sharpened our value propositions, so they resonate — and are fluent, focused, and commercially grounded. His strategic grasp of both stakeholder dynamics and political context makes Tremendi a valued and trusted implementation partner for Innovate Wisely.”
