The Lifestyle Suite rebrands to TLS Talent, expanding scope to include sports
The Lifestyle Suite, an Australian talent agency known for representing health and lifestyle experts, has undergone a significant rebranding and will now be known as TLS Talent. This rebranding is not merely a name change, but a strategic shift in the agency's approach, according to Simone Landes, Director of TLS Talent. The agency has expanded its portfolio to include a dedicated sports offering, TLS Sport, and has partnered with notable figures in various fields since its inception in 2013.
"Our evolution to TLS Talent goes beyond just a name change. Rather it's a shift in our approach that cements our commitment to fostering excellence and driving opportunities for Australia's best-loved sporting heroes, health and lifestyle experts and up and coming talent," said Landes.
The agency's roster includes Paralympian Ellie Cole, rally driver Molly Taylor, dietitian Dr Joanna McMillan, General Practitioners Dr Preeya Alexander and Dr Ginni Mansberg, and TV journalist Shelly Horton. The newly added TLS Sport portfolio boasts Olympians Tilly Kearns and Claudia Hollingsworth, motorsport star Aiva Anagnostiadis, beach volleyball player Mariafe Artacho del Solar, along with Ellie Cole and Molly Taylor.
"Today, elite athletes need to be multi-dimensional. As well as focussing on their high -performance world, they've had to adapt to new media platforms whilst also becoming astute marketers that create engaging content," Landes explained. This recognition of the need for athletes to be multi-dimensional is a key driver behind the agency's rebranding and expanded focus.
The rebranding signifies a broader commitment to fostering excellence and driving opportunities for Australia's sporting heroes, health and lifestyle experts, and emerging talent. Landes added, "We'll continue to represent this country's best loved and respected health and lifestyle experts and our mission to have a true impact on health, lifestyle and social literacy for all Australians."
The agency has promised more announcements in the coming weeks, indicating that the rebranding and expansion of services are part of a larger growth strategy. This move by TLS Talent underscores the evolving landscape of talent representation, where agencies are required to adapt to new media platforms and the increasing demand for multi-dimensional talent.
